Consumer complaint received 2024-03-15 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: TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent you a letter via certified mail ( XXXX ) requesting debt validation for the referenced account. You responded on XX/XX/XXXX with a bill from a creditor. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent you another letter via certified mail ( XXXX ), rejecting your response because a simple bill is NOT considered a " validation of debt '' by any means. Furthermore, this was unsatisfactory as proof that a debt is owed according to Texas Finance Code Section 392.202 and the CFPB 's standard. 

The letter mailed on XX/XX/XXXX again attempts to validate this debt and extends additional time for your company to comply with federal and state law. As of this date, I have yet to receive a response. This account is still reporting and has yet to be validated, even after a consumer request. 

Not only has this account not been validated, but it also contains numerous errors. When you received the two notices that this account was disputed, an investigation should have been conducted, per FDCPA and FCRA guidelines, and these inaccuracies should have been corrected. Because these inaccuracies remain, it shows that a proper validation was never conducted. 

This account has a last activity date of XX/XX/XXXX on XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX on XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX on XXXX. If this one account was updated, then it should be the same for all credit reporting agencies. What I found to be very concerning is your reporting to XXXX, which reports an Account Open Date of XX/XX/XXXX but has the last activity BEFORE the account was even opened. This is an egregious inaccuracy. Next, the account shows as open on XXXX and XXXX but closed on XXXX. If this is the same account, how can that be? 

Lastly, this account is a charge-off account and is reported as a collection by your company. Since then, this account has been reported as a charge-off every month, creating a payment history. This is an update in the payment history, which, to my understanding, collection accounts should NOT include an active payment history. This very action falsely manipulates the statute of limitations. 

This erroneous account contains numerous inaccuracies and has yet to be validated even after being requested twice. The company 's actions can only be deemed willful as they failed to correct or remove this account.

Complaint narrative:
Dear, CFPB I am writing to formally complain about the fraudulent reporting of an account on my XXXX credit report by CREDENCE RM. Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered that CREDENCE RM has inaccurately listed an account that does not belong to me. This erroneous reporting not only tarnishes my credit history but also violates my consumer rights to privacy and accuracy in credit reporting. 

Pursuant to 18 USC 8, I assert that I do not owe any debt to CREDENCE RM or any affiliated entity. Therefore, the inclusion of this account on my credit report is not only unjust but also illegal under federal law. I demand immediate removal of this inaccurate information from my credit report to rectify the damage caused to my creditworthiness and reputation. 

Furthermore, it has come to my attention that CREDENCE RM is not licensed and bonded in my state to collect debts. This raises serious concerns about the legitimacy of their operations and their compliance with state regulations. As such, I question the validity of their claim and request proof of authorization to collect debts in my jurisdiction. 

I expect prompt action to rectify this matter and restore the accuracy and integrity of my credit report. Failure to do so will result in further escalation of this issue to the appropriate regulatory authorities and legal entities. I urge you to take this matter seriously and address it with the urgency and attention it requires. 

Please acknowledge receipt of this complaint and provide a timeline for resolution. I can be reached at my contact information listed below to discuss this matter further. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I sent my full identity theft report to the credit reporting agencies, each one being XXXX, XXXX and Trans Union. I sent every piece of documentation required under the fair credit reporting act specifically section 605B which requires the credit reporting agency to immediately block and remove any accounts, identified as fraudulent by the consumer within four business days. Within one week I received information from each credit Bureau stating that they refused to block the information and instead rolled over into a 30 day investigation. These laws are in place exactly for these reasons so that consumers don't have to fight back-and-forth with the credit reporting agencies to have information deleted that doesn't belong t instead with the credit reporting agencies are doing is deciding to be the judge in jury and they are making the decisions on what they want and what they don't wan na block even without any new proof or new evidence from the furniture of information other than the original information that was submitted that negatively impacted my credit report that was the results of fraud. The credit reporting agencies are notorious for this and continue to get away with it and don't take responsibility. The consumer is not the customer of the credit reporting agency, yet the large companies that report and furnish the information on the consumer are the customers of the credit reporting agencies and pay for that service. Therefore the credit reporting agencies cater to their customers and not to the consumers and or victims of identity theft. I want the information that I clearly outlined in the theft report sent to each one of them certified mail that provided every required document under law as well as the XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX and I want those accounts immediately deleted and removed from my reports.
