Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I

am submitting this complaint to request immediate intervention due to serious violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) by TRANSUNION. Despite previous requests for correction, these violations continue to negatively impact my credit report and financial standing. Details of the Complaint : 1. Failure to Ensure Maximum Possible Accuracy The FCRA requires that credit bureaus and creditors ensure the accuracy of the information they report. My credit report contains
inaccurate entries from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that remain unverified despite formal

disputes, causing significant harm to my credit score and credibility. Previous attempts to address these inaccuracies have been inadequately handled, demonstrating a failure to uphold FCRA standards for accuracy. 2. Inadequate Investigation and Reliance on Automated Verification Systems Under FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ) and 1681s-2, creditors and credit bureaus must conduct thorough investigations of disputed information. However, my previous disputes have been met with automated responses through systems like e-OSCAR, which fail to meet legal requirements for a complete investigation. This approach neglects a comprehensive review of the disputed entries, perpetuating inaccurate information on my report. 3. Non-Compliance with Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) Requirements As outlined in TILA, creditors must issue clear and accurate billing statements and disclose essential account information to consumers. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX . has not adhered to TILA requirements in handling my account, resulting in erroneous charges and inaccurate reporting. This failure to comply with TILA has compounded the inaccuracies on my credit report, further violating my rights as a consumer.

4. Violation of FDCPA Standards for Accuracy and Non-Deceptive Practices The FDCPA mandates that debt collectors and furnishers of information must report accurate, verifiable data. The accounts in question have been repeatedly reported inaccurately, with misleading information that has not been corrected despite my disputes, constituting a violation of FDCPA protections.

Complaint narrative:
Dear [ CFPB ], I am writing to file an urgent complaint regarding fraudulent charges that have been reported on my credit report. I am a victim of identity theft, and my personal information is being used by an unknown individual across various accounts that I do not recognize or authorize. I travel frequently and am not well-versed in managing my credit, which my wife recently reviewed and found multiple accounts that have been opened in my name without my knowledge. This is an ongoing and dangerous situation that has persisted for months. Despite my repeated attempts to resolve the issue, no creditors or bureaus have provided any contracts, signatures, or proof to substantiate the charges or transactions. I was not notified by the credit bureaus or creditors within the required 5-day window, as outlined in 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( Validation of Debts ), which I was informed about by my lawyer. This failure to notify me is illegal and violates my consumer rights under federal law. As per 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( Fair Credit Reporting Act ), my right to privacy, confidentiality, and accurate reporting has been directly violated. Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) prohibits furnishing inaccurate information to consumer reporting agencies, which has clearly occurred in my case. I demand immediate action to remove these fraudulent accounts from my credit report and protect my privacy and rights. I will pursue legal action against both the bureaus and creditors involved for failing to provide the necessary documentation and for violating my federally protected rights.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 
Sincerely, XXXX  XXXX these are the fraudulent accounts XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Yesterday while checking my account online I noticed a charge from XXXX. It had an alphanumeric number attached. 

I noticed XXXX {$6.00} charges. 

XXXX on XXXX. 

XXXX on XXXX. 

I called the bank today and they verified XXXX other charges. 

XXXX on XXXX. 

XXXX on XXXX. 

Those are also for {$6.00} The charges are not done on the same time each month. I'm not familiar with these charges. There is a lack of information as to where these charges are coming from. 

It seems like XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX from XXXX could be tied to this. XXXX purposely didn't include all my photos in an article and didn't inform me until weeks later that my article was posted. She also left off contact information. It seems like those XXXX had an agenda from the start. XXXX and XXXX changed the main picture and attached an alphanumeric to it. This was done without my permission. 

Please look into this Chase. Thank you. 

It seems like the culprits are intentionally trying to get me to close the card so they can stealthy reopen it, stealthy roll over some funds into another account or put me in a position to where I don't have access to my card and have no access to money until a new card arrives. Individuals in our area have been stealing new cards that come in the mail and the passcodes that come separately. 

The XXXX is also not properly investigating the carriers responsible. 
XXXX XXXX is XXXX of the individuals allowing carrier misconduct.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I discovered an unauthorized and inaccurate collection account on my credit report from EXPERIAN associated with XXXX XXXX XXXX, account number XXXX. This account does not belong to me, and I have no knowledge of its origin. I formally disputed this account with the credit bureau, requesting verification and removal based on my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Sections 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ), and 623 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ), as well as the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), specifically Sections 809 ( 15 U.S.C. 1692g ) and 807 ( 15 U.S.C. 1692e ).

Despite my formal dispute and request for a thorough investigation, EXPERIAN has continued to report this account without verifying its accuracy or providing me with documentation supporting its validity. This violates my rights under the FCRA, as credit bureaus are required to conduct a reasonable investigation and must not report inaccurate or unverifiable information. Notably, failure to comply with these requirements has been underscored by precedents such as XXXX XXXX XXXX Mortgage XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
This inaccurate information is damaging my XXXX XXXX and affecting my financial standing. I believe that the credit bureaus failure to properly investigate and respond to my dispute is a direct violation of the FCRA, causing me unnecessary harm.
