Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have repeatedly disputed inaccurate information on my credit report with Experian, TransUnion, and multiple creditors. Despite multiple formal dispute letters sent via certified mail, I have not received any responses, corrections, or verification of the reported debts. 

I initially submitted disputes to Experian and TransUnion on XX/XX/XXXX, outlining multiple inaccuracies regarding my personal information and several credit accounts. 
After receiving no response, I sent another dispute to Experian and TransUnion on XX/XX/XXXX. 
Debt Validation Requests by Assignment were sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX. 
After no response, I issued a Notice of Default and Opportunity to Cure to them on XX/XX/XXXX. 
I sent a final notice on XX/XX/XXXX, again demanding validation or removal of the incorrect information. 
Despite these repeated efforts, the companies have failed to respond or provide proper validation, which is a clear violation of my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) .Disputed Accounts and Issues : 1. Personal Information Errors ( Experian & TransUnion ) My current and previous addresses are incorrectly reported. 
My employer information is inaccurate. 
The credit bureaus have failed to correct these inaccuracies despite clear proof provided. 
2. Credit Account Discrepancies XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # : XXXX Balance, high credit limit, and reporting errors persist despite requests for validation. 
Dispute dates : XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # s : XXXX, XXXX Incorrect balances, dates, and past due status reported. 
Dispute dates : XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX  XXXX Account # s : XXXX, XXXX Misreported balances, incorrect credit limits, and erroneous account details. 
Dispute dates : XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXXViolations and Legal Concerns : Failure to Provide Debt Validation Under 15 U.S. Code 1692g, debt collectors must provide validation upon request. The lack of response constitutes a violation of FDCPA. 
Failure to Investigate & Correct Errors Under FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate and correct inaccuracies within 30 days. Experian and TransUnion have failed to do so. 
Failure to Cease Collection Activity Without Validation Under the Florida Consumer Collection Practices Act ( FCCPA ), debt collectors must cease collection efforts until a dispute is resolved. 
Possible Unauthorized Reporting & Violation of IRS 1099-C Requirements If the debts have been charged off and qualify as canceled, creditors are required to issue a 1099-C Cancellation of Debt Form, which has not been provided.
