Complaint narrative:
Re : Formal Complaint - Violation of 15 U.S. Code 6802 - Discrimination Concern - XXXX  XXXX Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding a potential violation of 15 U.S. Code 6802 by XXXX  XXXX, a financial institution that I have an account with. 

As a consumer, I am entitled to privacy protections under this statute, which mandates that financial institutions adhere to specific requirements when disclosing personal information. Section 6802 stipulates that financial institutions may not disclose nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third parties unless certain conditions, such as providing proper notice and an opportunity to opt-out, are met. 

My concern is twofold : a potential violation of this statute and the consistent misuse of my credit report. I spoke with a manager at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2024, at XXXX XXXX. Unfortunately, despite my efforts to seek clarity and assistance, the manager refused to provide any help or information. 

This refusal to assist has intensified my concerns, leading me to believe there may be a deliberate pattern of negative reporting that goes beyond normal circumstances. Consequently, I feel compelled to bring the issue of potential discrimination to your attention. 

This letter serves as a formal request for your intervention in this matter. I am urging a thorough investigation into the potential violation of 15 U.S. Code 6802. Additionally, I request confirmation as to whether XXXX XXXX has complied with the statutory provisions. If a violation is determined, I kindly request that XXXX XXXX ceases and desists from reporting any further negative information on my credit reports. 

Given the urgency of this matter, I would appreciate your prompt attention. Furthermore, I insist on a thorough examination of the potential discrimination issues arising from the consistent misuse of my credit report during the investigation. 

I am submitting this complaint electronically for your records. Please acknowledge receipt at your earliest convenience. 

Thank you for your attention to this serious matter. I look forward to your assistance in resolving these concerns. 

Sincerely,

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I've observed several deviations from mandatory reporting standards, which raises concerns about the accuracy and completeness of the data in my report. Consequently, I reject the allegations against me and challenge you to provide evidence that justifies reporting this incomplete negative information on my credit report. 

In accordance with 15 U.S.C 1681e, consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of information in consumer reports. Additionally, 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) mandates furnishers to provide information about consumer accounts with integrity and accuracy. It also requires them to conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes, following Metro 2 compliance standards outlined in the XXXX. 

Deviation from these standards jeopardizes the integrity of the data, as emphasized in the XXXX. Any errors in reporting can compromise the accuracy of federally regulated reports. Therefore, I am exercising my rights to challenge these inaccuracies and non-compliant items. Ignoring my request would indicate a disregard for my consumer rights. 

It is unjust for you to report unconfirmed and potentially unethical information that does not meet certified reporting standards. I am disputing these claims and demanding proof of proper reporting standards. Your actions are a violation of my rights, as outlined in this document. The incomplete and non-compliant nature of the report does not meet legal standards. I insist that you certify all aspects of required FCRA/Metro 2 compliance truthfully, correctly, and in a timely manner. Failure to do so may lead me to escalate these issues to the CFPB, FTC, and my Attorney General.

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX I lost my phone number briefly. Someone was able to take it over online by requesting it be merged with theirs online. XXXX XXXX was able to get it back fro me in about a week. Around this time a fraudulent charge ( XXXX XXXX ) was made to my Bank of America credit card to a XXXX XXXX account. I do not have a checking or savings account with XXXX XXXX. ( I do have a credit card ). I have confirmed with two representatives at XXXX XXXX that I do not have an account and they have requested that a custom letter be sent me a letter to this effect on XX/XX/2023. Speaking to the representative today, this is not standard procedure and they seem reluctant to compose a letter. 
Bank of America claims that their investigation finds an account " associated with my name '' ending in XXXX. I have confirmed with XXXX XXXX today that I do not. 
I have received 5 letters from Bank of America rejecting my claim even after proof ( call transcript ) that my phone number was compromised, I don't know what to do at this point. I have spent hours fighting this to no avail.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
New Complaint : Subject : Urgent Consumer Protection Matter - Unacceptable Handling of Complaint Dear CFPB and Trans Union I am writing to express my profound dissatisfaction with Trans Union 's egregious mishandling of my consumer protection rights. The level of malice, misinformation, and blatant lies presented in their response to my CFPB complaint ( XXXX ) is utterly unacceptable. 

Upon receiving an email from the CFPB on XX/XX/year>, I discovered that Trans Union 's response, asserting that the disputed accounts were not reflected in my credit profile, is nothing short of a fabricated tale. Contrary to their claims, my Trans Union Credit report clearly shows the disputed accounts from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( 2 accounts ), XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX, all of which continue to cast a false shadow on my credit score. 

In a conversation with Trans Union 's supervisor, XXXX XXXX, I was appalled to learn that my disputes were arbitrarily canceled without removal from my profile. The admission that Trans Union openly favors creditors and offers no protection to consumers is not only disheartening but a stark betrayal of trust. 

It is deeply troubling that, despite filing multiple disputes and complaints, Trans Union insists on perpetuating this injustice. Supervisor XXXX 's suggestion that obtaining legal representation is the only viable recourse further highlights the systemic bias and discrimination at play. 

I must emphasize that this is not just a matter of consumer rights but a clear case of racism  and bias discrimination. My XXXX faith and minority  status seem to be unfairly influencing Trans Union 's handling of my case, and this is unacceptable. 

The only acceptable resolution is for Trans Union to promptly rectify this situation by removing the fraudulent accounts from my profile. I demand the removal of accounts from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( 2 accounts ), XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, as well as inquiries by the latter and XXXX  XXXX. 

I insist on communication solely via email, and I expect a swift and just resolution to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX Email : XXXX XXXX
