Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report. 

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and may be the result of identity theft or other illegal activities. Attempting to enforce these fraudulent accounts is unlawful. I request that you expedite your investigation to prevent further harm, losses, or damages that I may suffer as a victim of identity theft. 

Moreover, under the Fair Credit Billing Act, my right to privacy has been violated, and this breach infringes upon my rights as outlined in The Privacy Act of 1974. Removing the inaccurate and fraudulent information from my credit report will help restore my privacy and prevent further violations.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint regarding my interactions with Nelnet Servicing , LLC, as they have failed to provide adequate documentation to validate a debt I am disputing. On XX/XX/XXXX, I formally requested a copy of the Master Promissory Note ( MPN ) for a student loan debt they are attempting to collect. Despite their initial response promising to provide this documentation within 7-10 business days, they have failed to do so.

Nelnet continues to send billing statements and other communications related to this disputed debt, but they have not addressed my core request or provided validation of the debt, as required under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). I have followed up with Nelnet multiple times, yet their responses have been generic and evasive, failing to provide the legally required documentation or properly investigate my dispute. 

Without this documentation, the debt remains unverified, and Nelnet should not be pursuing collections. Additionally, XXXX delay and failure to address my concerns could be linked to their ongoing legal issues, including a XXXX data breach that compromised the sensitive information of millions of borrowers, further raising concerns about their ability to handle my account information properly. 

I am requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) compel Nelnet to provide the requested documentation and address this dispute properly, including stopping any further communications regarding the loan until the debt is validated.

I am writing to formally dispute an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report, as allowed under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ). I believe this information is not correct, and I am requesting that you investigate this matter promptly. 
The item in question is a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX for the account number XXXX. The late payments are reported as being dated [ XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX ], and I firmly believe this is inaccurate for the following reasons : 1. I have always made my payments on time, apparently they have administrative errors 2. Additionally, under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), section 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ), creditors are required to provide clear and accurate information regarding the terms of the credit. If the late payment reported does not align with the terms initially agreed upon, it warrants removal.

I also wish to highlight that under 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, furnishers of information are obligated to provide accurate information to credit reporting agencies. Given the circumstances outlined, I respectfully request that you take the necessary steps to remove this late payment from my credit report as it does not reflect the true nature of my payment history.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding unauthorized hard inquiries that have appeared on my credit report. I have recently reviewed my credit report and noticed several hard inquiries from companies listed below that I did not authorize.

- Company : XXXX XXXX. Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/2024. 
- Company XXXX XXXX Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/2024.

Since these inquiries were made without my consent, I believe they are in violation of the law, and I request that they be removed from my credit report. 

I urge you to investigate this matter and take appropriate action to eliminate these inquiries. These unauthorized hard inquiries negatively impact my credit score, and I am concerned about their effect on my financial well-being. 

Please inform me of the steps you will take to rectify this situation. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter.
