Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: OR

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am formally filing this complaint to report materially inaccurate and damaging information being furnished by XXXX XXXX  XXXX and XXXX XXXX on my Experian credit file. These furnishers have reported duplicate charge-off entries monthly, in contradiction to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) which permits a single charge-off event, not recurring monthly derogatory marks. 

This repeated and extended charge-off reporting is inaccurate, misleading, and has artificially inflated the perceived severity and recency of these accounts. The result has been devastating financial harm : my credit score has suffered dramatically, leading to higher auto loan rates, excessive insurance premiums, and inflated credit card interest rates. 

Further, I have previously submitted multiple disputes to Experian unrelated to these accounts. Despite documented efforts and supporting documentation, Experian has refused to correct known errors, violating their duty to conduct reasonable investigations under the FCRA. 

As a result of XXXX failure to uphold their legal responsibilities and the furnishers inaccurate reporting, I respectfully demand the full deletion of these XXXX tradelines from my credit report : XXXX. XXXX XXXX  XXXX Acct ending in XXXX, charged off XX/XX/XXXX, still reporting XXXX  monthly through XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX Acct ending in XXXX, charged off in XXXX, also showing XXXX  monthly since XXXX. 

These accounts are not being reported in accordance with standard credit reporting guidelines or the law. Their continued presence and misreporting are directly injuring my financial standing and impeding my ability to access fair credit. 

I urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate these violations and enforce corrective action, including the permanent removal of the accounts mentioned above.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint due to multiple ongoing violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by TransUnion. Despite my consumer rights, TransUnion has continued to report outdated, inaccurate, and unverifiable information on my credit report. 

Specifically : Outdated Negative Accounts My credit report contains derogatory accounts that are over XXXX XXXX XXXX, which is a direct violation of FCRA 605 ( a ). For example, a collection account from XXXX XXXX XXXX has a last activity date in 2016 but is still being reported. 

Inaccurate Personal Information TransUnion continues to report obsolete and incorrect personal data, including past employers, outdated addresses, and phone numbers I no longer use. Ive attempted to have these removed but they remain on my report without proper verification. 

Failure to Maintain Accurate Reporting Several negative accounts contain incomplete or unverifiable data, making it impossible for me to determine their accuracy or origin. This directly violates FCRA 607 ( b ), which requires credit bureaus to follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy. 

I submitted a written demand to TransUnion on [ insert date youll send the letter ] requesting full deletion of these items and compensation for the ongoing damage. I am requesting the CFPB to investigate and ensure TransUnion removes these violations immediately. This conduct has resulted in repeated credit denials, elevated interest rates, and emotional distress.
