Issue: Incorrect information on credit report — Information is not mine
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I received an alert via email saying that my credit score decreased due to a hard inquiry on XXXX/XXXX/2016. Upon review of my credit report, there is a hard inquiry from an auto dealership I have no knowledge of, and I never authorized this inquiry. TransUnion went on to say they can not remove this inquiry without a letter from the inquiring company allowing this inquiry to be removed. The auto dealership said they never pulled my credit report, they also informed me they do not use social security numbers to pull inquiries, in most cases. The customer name from the inquiry does not match my name, and her address is now listed on my credit report. I have never held residence at the addresses on XXXX XXXX. Neither companies are helping me resolve this error.

Complaint narrative:
I applied for accounts with Ally Bank and they opened my accounts made money transfers from my origianl checking account and then blocked access to my Ally accounts and wo n't give my money back. They say they could n't do the credit check and think I 'm fraudulent. I told them never at any time on their website did they tell me they would do a credit check and I was a victim of id theft a few years ago and froze my credit reports. They refuse to give the money back. They should never have opened accounts or transferred my money to their accounts if they could not do the credit check. And they should have advertised and told me online they do credit checks.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX/XXXX/15 at approximated XXXX ET, I attempted to receive my free annual credit report from TransUnion via XXXX. After accessing TransUnion 's site and verifying my identity, I was presented with a copy of my current credit report. I immediately clicked on the link to save a copy of my report as a PDF and was redirected to a page notifying me of an error. When I attempted to return to my report via the back button, I was told that the information was no longer available, and I was redirected back to XXXX. I then tried to re-access my TransUnion through XXXX, but was told that I was inelgible to do so since I had already " accessed '' my annual report. 

Clearly my access and ability to view and confirm the validity of the report was extremely limited based on an error with TransUnion 's site or backend systems, and I feel that I have not truly been provided with a report in accordance with FCRA.

Company: Core Advisory Group, LLC

Complaint narrative:
Hi my name is XXXX and I made initial contact with Core Advisory Group back on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I received a letter in the mail stating that they could help me reduce my payment and stop my foreclosure. I was told that their lender dispute program would stop my foreclosure and force my mortgage company to modify my loan. They promised me my situation that they could stop ay foreclosure procedures and my loan modify and payments lowered but that is by far the truth. I sent them all my information and they told me my loan modification package has been submitted and now I just need to wait for a final answer. I received a letter from my mortgage company in XXXX XXXX saying my loan modification had been denied. This company knew I would n't qualify and I have told them before hiring them that I was denied in the past for not having enough income and now they tell me I needed to show {$1000.00} more to qualify? Should n't they known this before taking my {$4500.00} that I paid them just to tell me the same answer that my lender told me which I do n't qualify for a loan modification! They told me they are redoing my information and resubmitting it but at this point, I ca n't take my chances with them as I lost faith in this company so I demanded my money back. After that they made me fill out this package in order to get my refund and this at the beginning of XXXX XXXX and it took them until XXXX XXXX just to offer me {$350.00} back?? This company is a joke, a scam and they need to be shutdown. I want my money back the full amount. They have illegally taken my money upfront which is a violation to the XXXX rule and they still did it and provided no results. How insulting is that they did n't know whether they can help me but lied they can but ca n't and take {$4500.00} and at the end offer to pay back only {$350.00}? I hope and pray the authorities lock these crooks up. To make matters worse, I had found out that the owner XXXX XXXX of Core Advisory Group is the same guy that owned Colleagues in Law that he got rid of which does the same thing offering loan modification service. What did this guy just XXXX everyone, take their money and change company name and nothing happens to him? He needs to be in jail. Please help me get my money back from this clown.

Complaint narrative:
I finance a car thru Ally Financial on an 8.44 % rate. However, after reviewing my payments and total I believe they 're taking advantage of me and applying all payment to finance charge. I 've spoke to the rep and she has state they forecast charges therefore I must pay that interest.

Complaint narrative:
I opened an online acct with Ally Bank last year about XX/XX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX. Initially all was well. About a week after opening the acct I was bombarded with phone calls/ email as to the address provided. I reside in XXXX XXXX. I called customer service and was advised there was a problem with my addss, so I reconfirmed the addss and was reassured there was no further problem. I then kept receiving phone calls sometimes 3-5 times a wk, telling me to call again. I returned the calls and was transferred to what I understood was a fraud dept who asked me to provide a stateside addss because my XXXX XXXX addss should never have been accepted etc so I provided my sisters addss in XXXX, never being advised that it needed to be an addss at which I physically resided and was reassured was alright as all they needed was a US addss. Again more calls/emails ensued so annoyed I called and requested to speak to a supervisor and was advised I was to be transferred again to a fraud dept employee who stated that for me to have given a state side addss where I do n't reside was wrong etc, even though I explained that customer service advised me it was fine. I immediately requested transfer back to customer svc and requested closure of my acct and a check sent to me for deposits made. This was XX/XX/XXXX. The addss I provided for receipt of that check was my XXXX addss and I specifically asked several times if that was alright and was reassured it was. I continued getting emails as to my savings acct status so I called to verify it was indeed closed only to find out it wasnt! I requested closure and status on my check reimbursement. Was assured check was sent out. Until today 's date I have never recvd my check and yet continue to recv emails as to updates on my savings acct! Am thoroughly frustrated with this banks practices and am reaching out for help. I understand my follow up also lacked here, but I work full time nights, and care for an elderly parent and though not an excuse, leaves me little time to have dealt with this sooner. I would be appreciative of any help offered, as I do not wish to contact these people again and be given another run around. Thank you in anticipation of your assistance, respectfully XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
All XXXX Credit Bureaus are reporting Credit Accounts discharged in bankruptcy in XXXX of 2010 as derogatory credit. I have contacted the Creditors and they refuse to stop reporting the credit account as adverse/derogatory as well. 
This is a violation of the Federal Bankruptcy reporting laws and is negatively affecting my ability to obtain credit. It is also a false/fraudulent reporting of the status of my credit since the bankruptcy closure. 
The outsourced phone rooms handling the 'collections operations ' and credit bureau reporting do NOT understand US Bankruptcy law. The " Creditors '' blame the " Credit Reporting Bureaus ''. Neither entity can nor will accept responsibility for the fraudulent/false reports nor will they correct the reports. 
I have perfect credit since my bankruptcy and wish to increase my scores. They are making it impossible.
