Complaint narrative:
I have diligently followed all the necessary procedures in disputing this account. I've contacted the bank, and they assured me the issue was resolved. Law enforcement has been involved, and I've provided a FTC report, which they confirmed as valid. Furthermore, XXXX and XXXX have complied with legal requirements and removed the account. However, Transunion seems to be presenting obstacles, claiming I haven't completed all the necessary steps. Despite repeatedly submitting my claim to Transunion for years now, I remain stuck. Each time, I receive a dismissive response, alleging that the documents I've provided are inadequate. It appears Transunion is failing to fulfill its legal obligation to process the identity theft report even though the bank already removed the account from the other bureaus. I want to emphasize that I've reported the identity theft to a law enforcement agency, specifically FTC, a federal entity.

Complaint narrative:
Due to me becoming XXXX with XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, I had a hard time paying my mortgage, mortgage assistance helped pay to current in XX/XX/XXXX. Pennymac then put me in XXXX, after that expired and XXXX still not completing my application I still was unable to pay leading to XXXX. During the XXXX process in XX/XX/XXXX, Pennymac Loan stated undisputed facts that I owed them {$130000.00}, of which {$9600.00} was for XXXX XXXX when in fact they paid {$2500.00} for XXXX. 

With the cost of the loan going above the initial amount I obtained a buyer for my home and asked for a payoff estimate on XX/XX/XXXX so I could estimate final numbers for closing. Pennymac requested the sale contract of {$170000.00} which I provided that day. I received XXXX payoff demands one for {$140000.00} dated XX/XX/XXXX due XX/XX/XXXX and the other for {$140000.00} dated XX/XX/XXXX due XX/XX/XXXX. 

I did file a complaint with XXXX XXXXXXXX, but Pennymac response was the Payoff dated XX/XX/XXXX due XX/XX/XXXX of {$140000.00} was correct. 

With the inaccuracy of dates and amounts it is very unclear as to ethical practices and accuracy of charges that Pennymac Loans is forcing upon me.
