Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
My account was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment to be updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request immediate action concerning an identity theft incident that significantly impacted my financial well-being and credit report. In XXXX, a data breach exposed my Social Security number, medical information, driver 's license number, and other sensitive information. I discovered through XXXX that my personal information, including my Social Security number, had been compromised and was being sold on the dark web. This breach led to unauthorized account changes and fraudulent credit inquiries and loan requests that remain unresolved on my credit report. 

Despite multiple attempts to rectify these issues, my credit score has not improved due to the erroneous and unauthorized entries. I have contacted TransUnion and other credit bureaus, provided documentation from the FBI, the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and the IRS, and submitted multiple police reports. However, no corrective action has been taken. 

The fraudulent activities, including unauthorized cell phone accounts and XXXX  loans, have severely impacted my creditworthiness, hampering my ability to secure necessary credit. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit bureaus are obligated to ensure the accuracy of the information on consumer credit reports and are required to investigate disputed entries. The lack of action to address these fraudulent entries is a violation of my consumer rights. 

The FTCs identity theft recovery report mandates the removal of erroneous information from my credit report. Additionally, cases such as XXXX XXXX TransUnion** have established precedents where consumers successfully sued credit bureaus for failing to correct inaccuracies resulting from identity theft. As a consumer, I have the right to accurate credit reporting, and the failure to rectify these errors warrants accountability. 

Therefore, I demand the immediate removal of all fraudulent entries and inquiries from my credit report. I also request the correction of my credit score to reflect accurate information. Failure to comply will result in further legal action to hold the responsible parties accountable. 

I will continue to contact regulatory entities such as the FTC and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to ensure my rights are upheld.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding XXXX  failure to provide proof that I own a debt as requested. 

In 2023, I reached out to XXXX and requested documentation or a letter with evidence to validate that I own a specific debt listed on my credit report. Despite my request, XXXX failed to provide the required proof of ownership of the debt. This lack of response has caused significant frustration and concern, as it is my right under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) to have debts properly validated. 

Without proper validation, this debt remains unsubstantiated and continues to impact my credit profile negatively. I believe this is a violation of my rights as a consumer. 

I respectfully request your assistance in ensuring that XXXX either provides the necessary proof of ownership for the debt or removes it from my credit report promptly. I am attaching any relevant documents, including my original request and follow-ups, to support my case

Complaint narrative:
I am writing a file against Navy Federal credit union regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds when transactions were authorized, I was charged fees due to lagged posting of charges and credits. This issue aligns with the recent CFPB findings against Navy Federal for similar practices, when transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initial available funds. I believe these practices are unfair and request an investigation into my account transactions.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute a fraudulent tradeline on my credit report and to raise serious concerns about TransUnions failure to meet its obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) judgment. The account listed as XXXX XXXX XXXX is not mine and is the result of identity theft and deceptive practices.

Additionally, I am aware of the CFPBs recent judgment against TransUnion for failing to provide accurate and fair reporting of consumer credit information. This judgment further underscores the importance of ensuring my credit report is corrected promptly.

I have already filed an FTC Identity Theft Report regarding this fraudulent account, as it is an illegal debt. I strongly urge TransUnion to remove this account from my credit profile immediately.

( Creditor/Collection Agency Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX ) This debt is not mine, and its presence on my credit report is causing undue harm to my creditworthiness and reputation. XXXX XXXX XXXX has engaged in deceptive and unlawful practices, and this tradeline is in violation of federal and state laws.

To support my dispute, I have attached the following documentation : A copy of the FTC Identity Theft Report.

A copy of my credit report with the fraudulent tradeline highlighted.

A copy of my government-issued ID for verification purposes.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), TransUnion is legally obligated to investigate disputed accounts within 30 days. I expect a prompt and thorough investigation, followed by the immediate removal of this account if it can not be verified as accurate and legitimate. Additionally, I request that TransUnion provide a detailed explanation of the investigation process and outcome in writing.This situation has caused unnecessary harm to my financial standing, and I expect TransUnion to act immediately to rectify it. Please confirm receipt of this letter and provide updates on your actions to resolve this matter. 


I also need to dispute XXXX XXXX XXXX tradeline I have attached their info below and need an investigation immediatly. 
They have not verified the debt, they have no chain of title and it is not mine please investigate and remove!
