Consumer complaint received 2025-05-07 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Complaint # XXXX I am updating this complaint to formally object to TransUnions response that they require an additional 60 days to investigate. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), a credit reporting agency must complete a reinvestigation within 30 days of receiving a dispute.

My certified dispute letter, which included all necessary documentation proof of identity, address, and detailed explanation of each disputed account, was received by TransUnion on XX/XX/year>. Therefore, the reinvestigation period has expired. 

TransUnions failure to resolve this matter within the legal timeframe is a violation of the FCRA. I am requesting immediate compliance, removal of the unverifiable accounts, and an official explanation of the reinvestigation process as required by law. 

If this issue is not resolved promptly, I intend to seek additional remedies including FTC involvement and legal action.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: Credit Sage LLC
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I called a number thinking it was the debt collector suing me and it was actually Credit Sage. They talked me into their program saying that all my bad credit information could be erased and eliminated altogether ( meaning I know longer owe the debt ) if I used the service. Because of this, they have charged me a total of {$370.00} ( part of which has caused my checking account to go into overdraft and created more than {$200.00} in overdraft charges ) plus said I had to subscribe to Standard scores for an additional {$25.00} a month plus a {$99.00} fee. I can't afford that. I am on XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and all I was trying to do was call a debtor to inform them I don't have the resources to pay the amount. When I googled the debt company, Credit Sage 's number came up and they acted like that's who they were and said they would be eliminating that debt altogether when it is supposed to go before a judge on XX/XX/XXXX. I found all the forms I needed online to take care of it myself. And both XXXX and XXXX have sent me letters stating they aren't taking any action because it's not me making the request. When I questioned them, they said the credit bureaus lie as a " stall tactic. '' Yes, there are some errors, but they are disputing accounts that are current as well I want left alone.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Capital One deleted a positive tradeline, causing financial harm and damage to my credit profile Details of the Issue : Capital One recently and without prior notice deleted a longstanding, positive tradeline from my credit report. This account had a solid payment history, low utilization, and contributed significantly to the age and strength of my credit profile.

The removal of this tradeline caused immediate and measurable harm to my creditworthiness : My credit score dropped significantly.

My average age of accounts decreased.

My total available credit was reduced, which spiked my credit utilization ratio.

As a result, other creditors responded by decreasing my credit limits, and I have since been denied credit products I previously qualified for.

I did not request the deletion of this account, and I was not informed or given the opportunity to dispute or address any issues that may have led to its removal.

I believe this action is unfair and irresponsible reporting conduct that violates the spirit, if not the letter, of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Capital Ones failure to provide adequate notice, justification, or a dispute opportunity before deleting a positive tradeline has materially harmed my financial standing.

Complaint narrative:
This complaint is about a Buy Now, Pay Later ( BNPL ) serviceXXXX. That option wasnt available on this form, so I selected credit card as the closest match. 

I placed an order with XXXX XXXX XXXX through XXXX ( XXXX # XXXX ). On the same day the earrings were delivered, I contacted the merchant to request a return. The item was never opened, never worn, and I had just undergone a XXXX  XXXX  of my XXXX XXXX, making it unusable. 

The merchant refused the return and said it was final sale, but this was never clearly disclosed on the product page at the time of purchase. I filed a dispute with XXXX, provided full documentation, and explained that this was not about non-deliveryit was about a denied refund for an unused item. 

Despite this, XXXX closed the dispute solely on the basis of delivery, ignoring my actual concern and resuming payments. I believe this was mishandled and that my consumer protections were disregarded. 

I am seeking a full refund, or at the very least, a proper review of the return denial based on lack of policy disclosure and XXXX  necessity.
