Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
This inconsistency raises serious concerns about the thoroughness and accuracy of your investigation process. As a consumer, I am entitled to a fair and uniform assessment of all fraudulent accounts on my credit report. I was the victim and Im not sure why the CRA is not complying with the law. The other bureaus have followed suit. Im very confused why this one seems to ignore my requests. It is bewildering that your bureau would acknowledge the fraudulent nature of some accounts while neglecting to address others. 
XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX- PLEASE DELETE!!!! 
XXXX XXXX XXXX -- PLEASE DELETE!!!! 
I demand an immediate and comprehensive review of all the fraudulent accounts associated with my credit profile. If certain accounts were deemed fraudulent and subsequently removed, it stands to reason that the same rationale should be applied to all such accounts. Please provide a detailed explanation for the selective removal of fraudulent accounts and clarify the criteria used to determine which accounts are considered fraudulent and which are not. Transparency in this matter is crucial to rebuilding my trust in the credit reporting system.

Complaint narrative:
This inconsistency raises serious doubts about the accuracy and reliability of your bureau 's reporting practices. As a consumer, I rely on the credit reporting system to fairly and accurately represent my creditworthiness. The continued reporting of fraudulent accounts damages my credit standing and undermines my confidence in your bureau 's ability to conduct a thorough and reliable investigation. I was the victim and Im not sure why the CRA is not complying with the law. The other bureaus have followed suit. Im very confused why this one seems to ignore my requests. Despite providing clear evidence and successfully resolving the issue with other credit bureaus, it appears that your bureau continues to report these fraudulent accounts.

Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I asked for validation of the debt via their online contact us chat in the beginning of XXXX and the lady threatened to sue me and that wage garnishment can occur. She scared me and coerced me to pay even though I repeatedly asked for accuracy and validation be provided. She said I can dispute it after I pay and to just pay to prevent lawsuit and judgement against me. I paid because I was frightened not because I owe the debt or know of the debt. I then sent and tracked a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX asking for all allowed validation of debt documents per the FDCPA including the signed contract or agreement and I did not receive all required to validate the debt. I received XXXX credit card statement and a letter for them. I also advised in that letter I sent that I was disputing the debt and that they can not contact me. They sent multiple statements and still tried to contact me via mail. Today I reached out again and the representative said it was still in process I asked what that meant and he refused to help I advised my social security card was stolen in XXXX and that I no longer had the original police report. He refused to assist on the status of these accounts and ended the chat on me ( hung up ) I have not received debt validation. They refused to help with questions and threatened me. I took screen recordings of every conversation and have the tracking number and copy of letter that I sent requesting the information I am legally entitled to.

Complaint narrative:
I started my investigation on my credit report back on XX/XX/XXXX. I submitted my letters to the credit bureaus and have attached a copy showing that I had requested to have the collection accounts removed. I had sent the information through priority mail next business day and they received it as of XX/XX/XXXX. I had also requested to have incorrect names and addresses removed from my report. TransUnion never responded to my initial claim, XXXX never responded, XXXX sent me a letter confirming the activity on my account on XX/XX/XXXX but never ran an investigation on my report. I sent a second letter asking to for an investigation to be completed back on XXXX XXXX, 30 days later. I got a letter from TransUnion on Monday the XXXX of XXXX saying they had completed my investigation and they had not seen fit to reopen the investigation. They have updated the results of their investigation to remove one collection account for XXXX. To date the other 2 bureaus have not removed anything. I had 4 collection accounts registered to my name ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX ). I also had incorrect spellings on my official names and in the letter I sent them it shows my official address that I have lived in for almost 4 years. I can verify the data they have on my names and addresses are incorrect. I have asked for statements or documentation proving the collection accounts are valid and have yet to get any data.

Complaint narrative:
2 collections accounts were added to my Transunion credit score from XXXX XXXX XXXX, one for {$13000.00} and another for {$6700.00}. I have no knowledge of these accounts, of the apartments to which they correspond, or of XXXX. I filed a dispute with Transunion on XX/XX/XXXX which determined the accounts were accurate ( they are not ). I filed a CFPB complaint against XXXX on XX/XX/23 which did nothing. I began communicating with XXXX, requesting information on the accounts ( move-in dates, move-out dates, a list of charges, copy of signed lease, address of the apartment units, account numbers, etc ) and they refused to give me any information until I filed a Transunion dispute, which XXXX had already done. It seems that neither Transunion, nor XXXX XXXX XXXX have been doing their due diligence to resolve these issues and my credit score is suffering in the meantime.
