Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: SC

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$XXXX} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent. 
I looked at my consumer reports and noticed inquiries I didn't consent to and personal information I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states.

The continual reporting of this charged-off status and delinquency is incorrect.Consumer Law Violation : Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ), creditors and credit reporting agencies are required to report accurate information. The account was reinvestigated and resolved, thus the continued reporting of this account as charged off with a past due amount is misleading and damaging to my creditworthiness.Inaccurate Payment History : The payment history reported contains multiple inaccuracies : The charge-off status reported for XXXX and XX/XX/year> contradicts the reinvestigation results.The payment history reflects delinquency dates ( 30, 60, 90, 120, and 150 days late ) that are inconsistent with my records and the reinvestigation findings.Account Status : The account is reported as " Closed '' with a status of " Charged Off, '' despite having been reinvestigated and resolved. This incorrect status must be updated to reflect the accurate and current state of the account.Given the inaccuracies and violations of both Metro 2 standards and consumer protection laws, I request that you immediately delete this account from my credit report. Enclosed are copies of my credit report with the disputed account highlighted, as well as any supporting documentation from the reinvestigation process.
