Complaint narrative:
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: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am requesting a reinvestigation into multiple items appearing on my credit report, as they are either fraudulent or inaccurately reported. Several accounts listed are not mine. I did not authorize, open, or benefit from them. These items appear to be fraudulent, and I have not received any disclosures, billing statements, or signed agreements as required under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) and the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ). Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 611, I request a detailed reinvestigation and disclosure of the verification process, including the identity of the furnisher. 

Additionally, an active account is being reported with a late payment status, which is factually incorrect. I have made timely payments, and this inaccurate reporting violates FCRA 623 and the DoddFrank Acts prohibition against deceptive practices. This negative reporting misrepresents my creditworthiness and causes substantial harm.

I request a manual, factual-based reinvestigation, not an automated E-OSCAR response. Under FCRA and CFPB guidelines, furnishers and credit bureaus are required to conduct a reasonable investigation and correct or delete inaccurate information. I expect updated reporting and full compliance with the legal timeframes outlined in FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding the handling of my XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) plan over the past year. 

During the last year, the online portal to manage my XXXX plan was unavailable, effectively pausing my participation in the program. As a direct result of this lack of access and the subsequent non-payments that were reported, my credit score has decreased by approximately XXXX points. This significant drop has negatively impacted my career opportunities. 

When I initially noticed that the XXXX was not accessible online, I contacted customer service department to address the issue and was informed that there was nothing that could be done at that time. It was only after my credit score had already been negatively affected that the XXXX application became available online again for me to complete. 

I believe it is unjust for me to bear the negative consequences of a situation where the necessary resources for managing my student loan repayment plan were not available to me, yet I was still expected to make a substantial monthly payment of {$3500.00}. 

I request a thorough review of my case and appropriate action to rectify the damage done to my credit score due to the unavailability of the XXXX program online. I look forward to your prompt response and a resolution to this matter.
