Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo XXXX regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes XXXX law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than XXXX business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( XXXX ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( XXXX ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( XXXX ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( XXXX ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX data breach as well as XXXX 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per XXXX and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Complaint narrative:
Hello! My name is XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2023 I pulled my credit report so I can see what was on it. Im looking into fixing my credit and noticed an unknown collection on my credit report I dont recall having this account. I then sent XXXX XXXX XXXX and MIDLAND CREDIT MANAGEMENT a debt validation letters via certified mail on XX/XX/2023 with a return receipt. I received nothing what I asked for I only a received an itemized billing statement with an addressed thats not associated to me. I ask for proof I agree to this debt with my signature, proof of the amount they claiming I owe is correct and legal, which require all statements and payments history from original creditor. Proof the amount is within the statute of limitation and has not expired. Proof you are the owner of this account, which will require the contract and terms between them and the original creditor. Proof that they are legally licensed, bonded and insured if applicable to collect this debt in my state. For verification purposes, I will need their business license number. They failed to send my requested documents only thing they sent was a itemized billing statement. I then contacted via phone and ask why wasnt the documents I requested for validation wasnt sent. They said they only have what they mail me is a billing statement they brought from the original creditor and they dont have anything with proof with my signature on it. I feel like they have violated my consumer rights and failed to follow FCRA guidelines and also ignored my request to not contact me and cease and desist all future attempts contacting me.
