Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this dispute about transunion credit reporting agency. I have been disputing a few things on my credit report and they just keep updating the information I am disputing. This is completely incorrect. My first complaint is a XXXX account that is reporting with a XXXX balance but showing charged off to a bad debt. This is wrong. The balance is XXXX however the remarks " charged off to a bad debt is wrong ''. I contacted transunion quiet a few times to dispute this and the rep told me that the furnisher did not respond within the 30-45 days they had. I explained by the fcra laws then it is to be deleted. I was assured it would be deleted. However it 's still reporting and was never deleted. My second complaint is XXXX acct # XXXX is listing XXXX seperate loans. I NEVER had a loan with them in the amount of {$860.00}. This amount has been combined with my XXXX loan I had with them. I contacted the better business berauou in regards to this and received a response that the bank did not respond back to them. I tried to contact transunion again today XXXX/XXXX/2017 and again was given the run around. I ca n't seem to have this wrong information corrected. There are also negative remarks that are reporting on my transunion credit report which again I was told they would be removed. Still not removed. Having this incorrect wrong information reporting on my credit report is affecting me in obtaining credit. I wish to submit this complaint about transunion credit reporting company as they are causing me a hardship in obtaining credit. Plus I never received an updated credit report as I was promised last month.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX has issued a late/missing payment remark on my credit report. The account in question is not mine ; it is my late step father 's. They claim since I was authorized user ( which is news to me-I have my own XXXX XXXX account ), they have the right to put this on my credit report. I think this is extremely unfair! I never signed my name to this account ; plus even XXXX XXXX states an authorized user ( if I was one ) is not liable to pay the account. So why is it alright for them to report my Dad 's account with a derogatory remark on my credit report? I think it is terrible to use my Dad 's passing as an excuse to do this. I would like their remarks removed from my credit reports.

Issue: Improper use of my credit report — Report improperly shared by CRC
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: KY

Complaint narrative:
In an ongoing effort to keep my credit report free of errors, I have been trying to log on to the TransUnion website to file an online dispute for several weeks now. Through lengthy conversations with their telephone customer service representatives I learned that someone else had logged on posing as me with a fraudulent email address, complete with fraudulent answers to security questions. I was asked to provide proof of my identity by sending them government photo ID from my email address. When I did this they sent a login reset link to the fraudulent email address, which I only know because they happened to have cc 'd my email address. If I did n't have a security breech before, I definitely have one now due to negligence on the part of TransUnion. 

After many customer service calls wherein I was not fully understood by the agent and/or I could barely understand them due to thick foreign accents, I asked to speak to an American call center. I was transferred to someone who spoke perfect English, but who would only record the details of my problem and could n't help me. This person promised I would be called back by someone in the US who could help me, but it never happened. I responded to the email sent out to the fraudulent address explaining what they had done and they claimed, " We have blacklisted email address and locked up the account with reference number XXXX. '' But whenever I call in I can not get a representative to confirm this. I am still unable to log in online, which is the easiest way to lodge a dispute. More importantly, without the ability to do so, I feel I am not in control of my personal information. Finally I asked them to put a security freeze on my report while this was worked out and after they did so they informed me that I would be charged {$10.00} to lift it unless I filed a police report, which is outrageous because they would be an accomplice in any identity theft charges. 

I have been very clear in what I want from TransUnion to settle this matter : 1 ) I want to know that my information is secure and available only to me and authorized financial institutions. 2 ) I want to be able to log in under my own email address and be able to access and dispute my credit file online. 3 ) I want them to admit their complicity in this security breech and refrain from charging any fees associated to the security freeze on my account, even if I need to lift it in future. 

It would also be nice if they took steps to make sure this kind of thing does n't happen to someone else.

Issue: Unable to get credit report/credit score — Problem getting my free annual report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: OR

Complaint narrative:
I first requested my free credit report in XXXX thru the govt website. 2 weeks later I was notified to submit proof of identity because the data they got from your website was illegible and they could n't understand the nature of my request. Is my request the first time they 've gotten a request from the govt website? They made a request for XXXX different forms of id to accompany and complete duplicate of the information I had already submitted thru your supposed faulty site. I provided clear and legible copies of my social security card, medicare card, utility bill and a cancelled check none of which was good enough for trans union. They have now sent me a third request stating what I previously sent them was inaccurate and unacceptable because it was too old, illegible, not a qualifying document and that I did n't send qualifying documents. Again this is the third time they have turned down my id. I dop n't have anything else to send them. They did n't like what you sent them also. So perhaps you have created this problem for me? It 's clear that they are fishing for more free information about me that they can add to their files and sell, profiting from me while refusing to share with me what info they have and also refusing to remove the erroneous and derogatory information that they have been providing to others and therefore doing damage to me and my good reputation. Trans union realizes that I 'm a XXXX senior and unable to work. Furthermore I have been in their files for 45 years. I 'd sure like to see what they call illegible. It is illegal for trans union to receive the '' benefit of the bargain '' profiting from my information. Furthermore, credit bureaus can be sued and for big bucks. I demand correct copies of my credit report be sent to the address I have provided to them immediately and I demand that they remove each erroneous item listed. Their reporting of false information about me has prevented me from obtaining a place to live. Hope you can help.

I had an account that was deleted on XX/XX/XXXX from Trans Union and reinserted on XX/XX/XXXX.And it was removed on XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and then reinserted on XXXX. I never received any notification that it was being reinserted from either bureau and there was no reason for it to be reinserted. Per the FCRA laws I am to be given a 5 day notification and I wasnt .I have at this point contacted an attorney and will go forward with a law suit if not removed and hopefully with your help it will be removed again finally. 
I want the account re-removed because they have failed to follow the law 1681 a 5 a of the FCRA 611 5b.

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, XXXX at approximately XXXX hours, I checked my credit report using Experian because this was the ONLY credit bureau which gave me negative remarks with a credit score of XXXX points. I noticed the address of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, California was wrong. I disputed through Experian by explaining to the bureau that I have NEVER lived in XXXX, California in my life. I live in XXXX XXXX, California since XXXX. Someone stole my personal information such as my social security number and date of birth to open several credit card accounts since XXXX XXXX. I had to dispute several fraudulent charges to several credit card companies by explaining to these companies that I do NOT live in XXXX, California. I would like Experian to remove this address of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA and restore my excellent credit score of XXXX points which I have maintained XXXX years of my life. I owned a townhouse in XXXX XXXX since XXXX due to my credit score of XXXX points. I just refinanced my house on XXXX XXXX due to my score XXXX points. I paid ALL my bills on time throughout my entire life by working hard. The suspect stole my identity on XXXX XXXX and has ruined my life since then. ALL I want is 100 % closure and Experian to restore my credit score of XXXX points. I sent a XXXX XXXX Police report to Experian by mail on XXXX XXXX, XXXX to verify what I said is 100 % truth. Experian still refused to assist me and refused to restore my credit score of XXXX points. I do NOT live in XXXX, California and will dispute many fraudulent charges against me. Experian has most of my personal documents such as my CA driver license, social security card, DMV bill, property tax bill and a XXXX XXXX Police report to prove my identity. The suspect committed the crime of theft using my identity in southern California by avoiding capture from the law and payments. I ONLY live in XXXX XXXX since XXXX. PLEASE remove XXXX, CA from my credit report since I have been a victim of Identity Theft. And PLEASE contact XXXX XXXX by having XXXX XXXX close my account due to fraud and Identity Theft. And PLEASE help me restore my credit score of XXXX points which I work very hard throughout XXXX years of my life. Thank you.
