Complaint narrative:
My credit report contains late payment remarks that I strongly believe are inaccurate. These false records misrepresent my actual payment history and are unfairly damaging my financial reputation. I will not allow these inaccuracies to go unchallenged. 

Despite my diligence in maintaining responsible financial habits, these errors are creating unnecessary setbacks for me. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is clearany outdated, incorrect, or unverifiable information must be corrected or removed immediately. I expect swift action to resolve this issue, as any further delay will only worsen the damage caused.

Complaint narrative:
Today, XX/XX/year> at XXXX, I got another text from " Shepard Outsourcing '' about a debt that I do not have. I do not currently have debt, I have never had debt. 

This is not the first time I have received a text like this, however I do not recall when they started because I deleted the message each time since, again, I don't and have never had debt. 

They want me to call them or visit their website and have insisted on it multiple times, despite my lack of debt so I have made no attempt to do so.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Transunion refuses to remove the XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy and XXXX Loans from my consumer report. XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy and XXXX  Loans have been removed from my XXXX report. I have contacted Transunion several times about the inaccurate information, and they refused to remove the information. I know that the CFPB is suing TransUnion for continually providing inaccurate information on consumer reports, so this is another example of Transunion violating my consumer rights. 


According to the FCRA, in order for you to furnish the alleged US BANKRUPTCY COURT you would need to be able to both VALIDATE and VERIFY the information with the original creditor. The US Bankruptcy Court would be the creditor to furnish this information and have previously communicated through documented mail that they DO NOT furnish any corresponding information to ANY of the CRAs. Including but not limited to the 3 MAJOR credit reporting agencies and the minors such as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and the likes. The US Bankruptcy Court has also assured me that it is not within their policies or obligation to validate any public records. Following my confirmation with the US Bankruptcy Court I also confirmed with XXXX that they were not able to validate this alleged bankruptcy in accordance with federal law. Having the abovementioned information, XXXX is violating my federally protected consumer rights. In addition to that violation, you are also committing fraud since you claim to have verified this bankruptcy, but your sources deny that. Should you need a reminder please refer to 15 USC 1681 ( A ) ( E ), 15 USC 1681C ( A ). 

I attached the only accounts that are on my XXXX report for your review.
