Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against TransUnion for reporting a charge-off account on my credit report in violation of multiple provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I disputed the accuracy and completeness of this charge-off account under FCRA 1681i, requesting a proper investigation. However, the account was marked as verified without any meaningful evidence or supporting documentation proving the legitimacy of the debt.

I did not receive any of the following from the credit reporting agency or the data furnisher : Proof of ownership of the alleged debt A signed contract or application bearing my signature An itemized accounting or breakdown of the alleged debt Verification of how the original creditor calculated the charge-off amount. 

According to XXXX XXXX Compliance Guidelines, a charged-off account can only be reported as such if it is 180 days past due. This means that the account must be six ( 6 ) months delinquent before it can be reported as charged off. However, my account was reported as charged off before it reached the 180-day delinquency period. 

Furthermore, XXXX XXXX also requires that the date of first ( 1st ) delinquency ( DFD ) be accurately reported to credit reporting agencies. The DFD is the date when the account first became delinquent, and it must be reported accurately to ensure compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I have reason to believe that the DFD on my account has been inaccurately reported. 

Despite my efforts to resolve this directly with XXXX XXXX XXXX and Transunion, the inaccurate charge-off remains on my credit file, causing ongoing harm and distress. This constitutes a willful or negligent violation of my rights under the FCRA. 

I have yet to obtain a 1099-C form in regards to the debt/account in question. I sent a request over 60 days ago. 

The inaccuracy of this reporting not only affects my credit score but also has profound implications for my financial well-being. It hinders my ability to access credit and financial services when I need them most.

As I previously stated to the bureau, pursuant to 15 US section 1681i ( 6 ) ( A ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I kindly request that you provide me with the description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I made a check deposit amount of {$20000.00} using my own check from a different bank ( XXXX XXXX  ) and it was cleared overnight without any problems. On XXXX, I made another deposit amount of {$24000.00} exactly the same way, using my own check from the XXXX. 
When I checked the transaction, it says the funds will be available next business day, XXXX, for withdrawal and debit card purchases. 
However, when I check again, two hours later, theres a hold on the check and the funds will not be available until XX/XX/XXXX. I called the Bank of America and spoke to a manager. She even escalated to clear the check, but they deny to clear the check on that day, XXXX. 
When I check the transaction from my Citibank account, the check was cleared on XXXX. 
{$24000.00} was taken out from my Citibank but no money on my Bank of America checking account. 
my {$24000.00} is not still posted on my checking account. 
I needed this morney for the long weekend. 
I highly doubt it if I would even get my {$24000.00} available to my checking even up to XX/XX/XXXX.

I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Company: North Shore Equities, Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint against Northshore Equities due to ongoing violations of federal credit and billing laws.

The company has reported my auto loan account as closed, yet continues to show it as delinquent with updated late payments after the closure date. According to my credit report from XXXX, the delinquency is still showing as updated or reported recently, despite the account having no new activity and being closed. 

This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ), which prohibits furnishers from reporting inaccurate or misleading information. Reporting ongoing delinquencies on a closed account constitutes re-aging the debt, which is illegal and unfairly damages my credit profile. 

In addition, the creditor or its third-party agent failed to comply with 15 U.S.C. 1666b ( a ) of the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ). Payments were marked as late even though billing statements were not delivered at least 21 days prior to the due date, as required by law. If a collection agency was responsible for sending statements, they did not issue monthly, Regulation Zcompliant billing statements as required. This invalidates any late fees, charges, or delinquency notations. 

I am requesting the following : Removal of all late payment or delinquency notations on the closed account A full investigation into the billing and reporting practices Proof that any billing statements were sent properly and lawfully Enforcement of compliance with FCRA, TILA, and the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA )

Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me. I've tried to get clarification from the creditors, but they have blatantly refused to give it to me. I demand that the creditors act immediately and be transparent. The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file!
