Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I sent the letter on XX/XX/2023, letter the reason why I sent this letter XXXX said everything was complete and accurate on my credit report. Here is my certified tracking # ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). The reason why I sent this letter is because XXXX said everything was correct and accurate. I would like a description of the results of how they verified everything. Cause when I looked at my credit report, they did not update anything according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act which is 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ) so I would like to know what they did to investigate everything. I would like a description of this according to 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ) and they were supposed to respond to me within 15 days according to the law. And I haven't received anything, and it's been over 20 days. This is very frustrating, disappointing, and stressful!

( 3 ) Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit and other information on consumers.

( 4 ) There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy.

( b ) Reasonable procedures It is the purpose of this subchapter to require that consumer reporting agencies adopt reasonable procedures for meeting the needs of commerce for consumer credit, personnel, insurance, and other information in a manner which is fair and equitable to the consumer, with regard to the confidentiality, accuracy, relevancy, and proper utilization of such information in accordance with the requirements of this subchapter.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have a Citi Costco credit card that is able to be used anywhere, supposedly. Since the end of XX/XX/2023, there have been many numerous times where the card hasn't worked and I've had to call Citibank to clear the card. I've verified everything on this account MANY times since then. They've sent out 4 letters with reference numbers since the XX/XX/XXXX, of which I've already verified 3 of those numbers. They've also had me verify the account by using text messages, phone calls, and providing account information. I've had no issue being able to complete the verifications, yet they continue to block the account and reissue more letters. It's been non-stop trying to resolve this matter. I've called at least 100 times if not more, spoken to just as many agents and supervisors, just to be spoken to rudely or hung up on. There have been several who actually cared to listen and acknowledge the issue and tried helping. They've stated that they added notes to the account, in the effort to prevent the problem from continuing, but it still continues. They refuse to acknowledge a problem within the system and just keep subjecting me and my account to this constant harassment. Their Fraud Early Warning Department is a joke and obviously no one there has any real concern about helping their cardholders.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I examined my Consumer Reports and observed that there are two instances of delayed payments on an account for which I have a consistent history of making timely payments. Consumer Reporting Agencies play a crucial role and carry the responsibility of accurately reporting consumer information to the highest degree of accuracy. I want to clarify that I have always made my payments on time for the following account : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Also, I spoke with the creditor and they also confirmed I was not late specifically on XXXX XXXX 


I kindly request that you conduct an investigation into these reported late payments and provide supporting evidence in the form of statements indicating the specific instances of lateness. In the event that concrete proof can not be furnished, I insist that these payments be rectified and updated to reflect their true status as 'on time, ' as I can affirmatively state that I have never made late payments. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. ''

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX XXXX, Carrington Mortgage reported a 30 day late on my XXXX report. I could only make payments by phone or mail due to the status they have on my account. I also have no online access, as I do others, due to me getting off after they close because of this status. I called and spoke with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I was confused on what the payment should be due to all of the different statements stating credits then the amounts were all different. She took a regular payment from me and stated this payment would not effect my credit due to she saw what I stated as well as my reporting is being SUPPRESSED due to they had not finalized my account from Bankruptcy status. The next day I got an alert after making this payment and they reported 30 days late. I called back and spoke with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and they both ASSURED me they were NOT reporting due to it being SUPPRESSED! One Gentleman gave me a research team fax number so they could look into this. I faxed and received a letter dated XXXX  stating its would take 30 days!. They also reported that my account was being sold and this is not true. I decided not to go through with the refinance but yet they reported after the fact. My insurance was not paid from escrow and was cancelled due to their negligence of my account. The payment to my insurance company was rejected because the account showed it was being sold. This company also told me they were still working on a dispute I put in the month of XXXX when I called in the month of XXXX. This company has caused me stress and frustration, a lapse of insurance, a loss of XXXX XXXX, and my commercial purchase has been affected with their derogatory reporting and improper handling of my account. I have also filed a XXXX XXXX XXXX complaint and they have yet to respond. ( Several complaints discovered there with the same issue )

Complaint narrative:
I disputed items inaccurate on my credit report. These debts that I disputed are not mine. I asked for a signatures, agreements, purchase information such as who authorized, where items were bought, delivered to, picked up from- etc. I argued that you need proof that someone owes a debt before you ruin their credit and their life by placing fraudulent debts/ accounts on their credit report. Their verification per them was name address, dob and statement showing charges. This is not proof of a debt owed the company said that they verified my name and address etc, so its considered valid. They explained that I could not dispute again with in two years unless I could provide some sort of additional information than what I already provided. I explained that they are violating FCRA REGULATIONS. They said that they are well within their rights as a creditor/ credit reporting agency to report this as valid debt.
