Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because TransUnion is reporting inaccurate and unverifiable information on my credit report. On XXXX XXXX XXXX I identified several accounts that I believe are either outdated, not mine, or can not be verified under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Please delete the following accounts : accountsXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  - Incorrect Personal XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - Incorrect Personal I submitted a formal dispute to TransUnion requesting that these accounts be fully investigated and removed if not verified with proper documentation. However, I did not receive a meaningful investigation or verification, and the inaccurate information remains on my report.

I am requesting the CFPB 's assistance to ensure TransUnion complies with federal law, specifically sections 1681i ( reinvestigation of disputed information ) and 1681b ( permissible purpose ). My goal is to have any unverifiable, inaccurate, or unauthorized accounts permanently deleted from my file.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I disputed a collection account reported by Professional Debt Mediation with Equifax because it is inaccurate and/or unverifiable. 

Equifax responded stating the account was verified and that they modified the Whose Account field. However, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), this is not sufficient verification. Equifax has failed to comply with 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ), which requires a complete description of the procedure used to verify the information.

I specifically request : The name, address, and telephone number of each person or entity contacted at Professional Debt Mediation. 
All documentation and records provided by the furnisher that Equifax relied upon in its investigation. 

To date, Equifax has not provided this information. Instead, they rely solely on a generic claim that the furnisher verified the account electronically. This is not proof and does not meet the statutory requirement for a reasonable reinvestigation under 15 U.S.C. 1681i.

If Equifax can not or will not provide the requested documentation, the FCRA requires them to delete the account under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ). Continuing to report unverifiable information violates 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) and constitutes willful noncompliance under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, entitling me to statutory and actual damages.

Subject : XXXX  XXXX XXXX Inaccurate/Inconsistent Reporting and Illegal Reinsertion of Previously Removed Late Payments Complaint : I am filing this complaint to report inaccurate, inconsistent, and unlawful credit reporting by XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding my account ending in XXXX. This account is current and in good standing, yet negative and conflicting information is being furnished across the credit bureaus. Additionally, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX has reinserted a 30-day late payment that was previously removed, without providing the required written notice, in direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Facts and discrepancies from my credit reports : Account Status XXXX  : Positive XXXX  : Positive TransUnion : In Dispute ( incorrect status ; account is current ). 

Date of Last Activity / Last Payment XXXX  & XXXX  : XX/XX/XXXX TransUnion : XX/XX/XXXX Past Due Reporting TransUnion shows XXXX XXXX late in XX/XX/XXXX, while XXXX  and XXXX  show OK for the same period. 

Payment History Conflicts TransUnion also shows a XXXX late mark in XX/XX/XXXX that had previously been removed after a dispute, and was reinserted without notification. 

XXXX  and XXXX  both show OK for that month. 

Last Reported Dates differ across bureaus ( XX/XX/XXXX vs XX/XX/XXXX vs XX/XX/XXXX ).

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/scrub> 2023 my identity was compromised and unauthorized cryptocurrency transactions of about {$8000.00} posted. With added fees/interest the reported balance is now over {$10000.00}. I reported the fraud and provided a police report, FTC Identity Theft Report, ID, and proof of address. Discover refused to reverse the charges, restricted my account access, and then charged off the account while continuing to furnish delinquencies based on those unauthorized transactions.

Under the Truth in Lending Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1643 ) and Regulation Z ( 1026.12, 1026.13 ), my liability for unauthorized use is limited and the issuer must reasonably investigate and correct billing errors. Discover has not done so and the inaccurate furnishing is causing ongoing credit harm. I am requesting CFPB intervention.

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX  XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

XXXX XXXXXXXX never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
