Consumer complaint received 2025-02-06 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding a XXXX past due payment that was reported on my XXXX Bank Delaware account XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. I have been a loyal XXXX cardholder since XX/XX/XXXX and have maintained a consistent and responsible payment history for the past 6-7 years, with this being the only late payment on record.

At the time of the late payment, I encountered an isolated circumstance that led to the delay. However, since that event, I have taken proactive steps to ensure that it never happens again, including setting up automatic payments and payment reminders to maintain my excellent credit standing.

Unfortunately, this single 30-day late payment from XXXX continues to negatively impact my credit profile, limiting my ability to secure favorable financial opportunities such as lower interest rates and better loan terms. Given my long-standing history of responsible account management, I respectfully request a goodwill adjustment to remove the late payment from my credit report. 

This adjustment would not only reflect my overall commitment to responsible credit usage but also strengthen my continued relationship with XXXX. I appreciate XXXX history of working with customers who demonstrate responsible financial behavior, and I kindly ask for your consideration in removing the negative mark from my credit history as a goodwill gesture. 

I look forward to a favorable resolution and appreciate your time and assistance in this matter. Please provide confirmation once my request has been processed.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX PLEASE REMOVE FOLLOWING check attached photo This letter is to inform your company that I want to dispute the following items below on my credit profile. Did you see that your company was sued by the CFPB? for unlawfully failing to properly investigate consumer disputes. The CFPB alleges that Experian does not take sufficient steps to intake, process, investigate, and notify consumers about consumer disputes, resulting in the inclusion of incorrect information on credit reports. Inaccurate or false information on consumer reports can threaten consumers access to credit, employment, and housing. 

I also learned that your company is notorious for telling consumers that you will not investigate accounts if you have previously investigated and now we see that you all never really investigated anything for consumers. I am demanding that you reinvestigate/ investigate and the outcome be removed today!

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing an account that is falsely being reported on my Transunion credit report. The account belongs to XXXX, and it is not mine. I have never had any financial relationship with XXXX, nor have l ever opened an account with them. I previously disputed this fraudulent account with Transunion, and instead of removing it, they only marked it as closed. This is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) because they are reporting false and unverified information. 
Under FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), XXXX is required to conduct a full reinvestigation and remove the inaccurate information if it can not be verified. I am demanding immediate deletion of this account from my credit report.
