Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: ID

Complaint narrative:
I recently reviewed my credit reports from XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion and discovered multiple incorrect items, including inaccurate personal identifiers. During the week of XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted each agency to dispute these inaccuracies, providing them with my correct name and address. Despite my efforts, the CRAs refused to remove all the inaccurate information. 

This continued reporting of incorrect information poses a significant risk to my privacy and security. It increases the likelihood of personal mail being sent to the wrong address, thereby exposing me to potential identity theft and fraud. The failure of these agencies to correct these inaccuracies despite clear evidence constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that CRAs ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 those account 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 XXXX XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section XXXX ( 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
