Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have been disputing with the bureaus since XX/XX/XXXX, some inquiries that I never approved of, and obviously did not obtain credit for. The bureaus did not delete the inquiries, nor did they respond within the 30-day timeframe that they are supposed to respond in. On XX/XX/XXXX I decided to give the bureaus another chance and sent another letter to each of them, demanding they delete the inquiries that I did not authorize. It is now XX/XX/XXXX and I still have absolutely nothing. No investigation was undertaken, no verification was made, and no response was sent. I have a legal right to all these things and the bureaus have a legal responsibility to respond to my disputes.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I called to inform the credit bureaus about inaccurate inquiries as a result of I never I authorized them. This was in XXXX and I also sent my last letter on XX/XX/2020. Someone had to use my name so I reported them to the burueas ( XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX ) .I never authorized such action and this constitutes a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act 604 as well as a violation of my rights to privacy Also, this was reported on my account and its still showing on my report. This has not been taken seriously and I contacted the original creditor and I contacted all 3 burueas on multiple occasions through phone and letters. The original creditor sent notices to all 3 burueas about this should be removed from my report because I never authorized this and but it still remains on the report. This matter is serious but i am being taking advantage of and my consumer rights are being violated.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
All 3 Bureaus were notified of the Bankruptcy being reported on my credit report. I sent a procedural letter to each, on XX/XX/2020 to ask of how they were acquiring the Bankruptcy information. According to law, all information obtained is to be reported directly to the Bureaus by direct lenders or parties involved, but the Courts do not. Neither could advise me of who or what source reported my Bankruptcy, XXXX XXXX to them directly. On my credit report, it states no known reporting agency and the Federal Courts do no report information directly to the Bureaus. This direct intention to degrade my credit status has led me to inhabitable living arrangements, limited transportation and minimum income to live. The reporting was never verified and there was never a response from Experian, XXXX or XXXX.

State: GA

Complaint narrative:
So, over the last 6-12 months, I have been active in disputing XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX XXXX  Account XXXX Both listed on my credit report that are not mine. I have provided proof that these bills belong to someone else and have not been able to get the accounts removed. the credit reporting agency continues to say that the account has been verified, but will not provide the information of verification, when asked they come back and say updated or verified I feel as though XXXX is not doing a real investigation on this matter because if they did, they would see these inaccuracies and delete these accounts from my report. I have clear proof of all my disputes. 

XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX as of XX/XX/XXXX up until XXXX/XXXX/XXXX they keep reporting that this account was being paid in XXXX of XXXX up until XXXX of XXXX then charged off in XXXX of XXXX but how can that be if the account was 150 days late in XXXX of XXXX? Also, how can I go from paid on time in XX/XX/XXXX then charged off in XX/XX/XXXX? Finally, when I look at the date last active for transUnion it says XX/XX/XXXX, for XXXX says XX/XX/XXXX, and XXXX  says XX/XX/XXXX this account has been re-aged and clearly a violation. Please help clear this off my credit report. 

I also saw another account from XXXX Account XXXX that states that this account was " certified as accurate '' How can this be since I have been asking that all the information for this account be accurate. But as I write to you now its in error and I have been disputing this account since XX/XX/XXXX. 

Also, XXXX : ACCOUNT # XXXX I asked for the information that showed that I was late but no answer. I just want to make sure my credit report is accurate. They have stated I was 30 days late twice. But my bank account shows that I paid them. Please have them update these late pmts to paid as agreed. 

XXXX Acct # XXXX This account started at 90 days late and all of my records show that I paid as agreed. Please update all months to paid as agreed because this is hurting my credit score. Moreover, the payment history is in error and I have tried to dispute with this with XXXX and XXXX but to no avail they did nothing.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I had two loans totaling roughly XXXX charged off by Discover in XXXX of 2019. After talking with XXXX they agreed to place me on hardship payments. Discover neglected to tell me that the payments were only in place for three months. Discover made no attempt to contact me at any point from the end of these hardship payments. 

This XXXX, hoping to settle the balance, I called Discover. I spoke to an individual named XXXX, who informed me that Discover was willing to settle the account for a lower amount. Hoping to get the loan off of my account, I was incredibly motivated to reach an agreement. Unfortunately, Discover wanted roughly XXXX, which was more than I had at the time. I told Discover I would contact them within a week to let them know if I could make XXXX work on my end, while XXXX said she would try to get a lower settlement number. 

I since made numerous attempts to contact XXXX. Every time I was told that she was unavailable. I was hoping to specifically talk to XXXX, as me and her had built up a good report and I had had negative experiences in the past with other Discover personnel. 

Today, I again attempted to call XXXX. Instead, I was told by Discover that my debt had been sent to a collection agency with no notice. I talked to several representatives from Discover, including XXXX XXXX and her supervisor XXXX ( who was incredibly rude, arrogant and belittling ), and was told that there was nothing that could be done. 

I do not believe that Discover gave me proper notice before sending this debt to collections, and I believe that XXXX was purposefully unavailable in order to prevent me from settling the account. I am currently reaching out to whomever I can for assistance.
