Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

Complaint narrative:
This is in regards to the paypal credit account I had with you guys, closed in XXXX. Last year, I requested a goodwill deletion. That was understandably declined. 

However, early this year, I requested that the account be removed in it's entirety. This is a much more reasonable response. I spoke to customer service multiple times, and they eventually agreed and stated that a letter would be mailed to the credit bureaues to have this account removed. I have uploaded the letter they sent me. I also have one of my conversations with your customer service rep recorded ( she consented to be recorded ), where she CLEARLY states the account would be removed. 

Well, that never happened. I spoke to XXXX and they never received such a letter. I tried calling you guys back, but I kept getting the runaround and no clear answers. 

Bottom line- I was explicitly told this account would be removed. It was not. You told me it would, so this letter needs to be sent to the credit bureaus. You told me you'd remove it, so remove it.

Complaint narrative:
Dear TransUnion Customer Service, I am writing to urgently request the removal of several unauthorized credit inquiries from my TransUnion credit report. Upon reviewing my report, I discovered multiple inquiries that I did not authorize or expect : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX It is essential to note that my TransUnion credit report has an access alert, indicating that lenders are required to contact me for permission before accessing my credit report. However, none of the aforementioned companies reached out to me for authorization prior to making these inquiries. 

This situation is deeply concerning as it not only violates the terms of the access alert but also poses potential risks to my credit score and financial security. Given that I did not apply for credit or authorize any of these inquiries, they are inaccurate and unjustifiable. 

I urge you to promptly investigate these unauthorized inquiries and take immediate action to remove them from my TransUnion credit report. Additionally, I request that you provide me with a written confirmation once the inquiries have been successfully removed. 

Furthermore, I seek clarification on the effectiveness of the access alert system and how it failed to prevent unauthorized access to my credit report in this instance. I would appreciate any insights or guidance you can offer to ensure the protection of my credit information moving forward. 

Thank you for your urgent attention to this matter. I eagerly await your swift resolution and response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I found out that Experian has two names associated with my account that are incorrect. One is a spelling error and another is the translation of my name into XXXX. Tried to submit complaint on line. And was told that since it was a name change I needed to call. I call and they dont have such an option in their automated options. I asked to speak to a person and they switched to XXXX demonstrating their bias is already coded in associated with my account. I am not XXXX  or from a Spanish speaking country. Why did their automated messages switch to XXXX? Is this racism or ethnic discrimination embedded in their system? At least it is not ethical. They dont have a person to help. I called their customer assistance a number and it goes to the same number. I do not want my report card to be associated with names that are not mine and I have never used.
