Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: IL

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My Apple ID was hacked, and the attacker added a recovery key without my knowledge or consent. This permanently locked me out of my Apple ID account, which is the same account used to access my Apple Card through Apple XXXX 

I contacted Apple Support, but they stated they could not remove the recovery key or help me regain access to my account. I then contacted Goldman Sachs, the issuer of the Apple Card, to ask for help managing or recovering access to my credit card account. They told me they can not change the associated email address or transfer the account to a new Apple ID. 

As a result, I currently can not access or manage my Apple Card account, including making payments or checking balances even though I am the rightful account holder and have my personal identifying information. I have offered to verify my identity through standard methods, but both Apple and Goldman Sachs have refused to assist.

I am requesting help in regaining access to my credit card account, or at minimum being allowed to make payments and view account activity, to avoid damage to my credit due to circumstances beyond my control.

Complaint narrative:
I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

I have previously disputed Experian and Equifax regarding multiple accounts that are inaccurate.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX is reporting a XXXX late payment on my auto loan account for XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, even though the account is currently paid as agreed and shows current status. There was a payment arrangement in place during the reported period, and I upheld my end of that agreement. 

Despite this, the late payment remains on my credit report. Ive attempted to resolve this directly with XXXX XXXX, but they have not corrected the inaccurate reporting. This has negatively impacted my credit profile as I am working toward mortgage qualification. I am requesting CFPBs assistance in having this corrected to reflect the accurate payment history.
