Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX I submitted a complaint to CFPB with regard to our account with XXXX Bank and delinquencies reported on TransUnion. The case was initially resolved, and this information was removed from our credit reports. 

However, as of today, XX/XX/22, the late payment of XX/XX/XXXX is back on our reports ( XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX ). 

XXXX has sent multiple letters to TransUnion to update our credit file and TransUnion keeps placing this back on our credit file. 

Supporting documents attached shows late fees waived, the funds were IN our XXXX account and should have been applied to our loan account/payment - and the letter from XXXX stating delinquencies were waived from XX/XX/22 along with ANOTHER letter on XX/XX/22 stating with even more detail that this SHOULD NOT BE ON OUR CREDIT FILE. 

Our next action is to sue TransUnion as we have been dealing with this same issue for 10 months now.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Last month I pulled my credit report and noticed many accounts that on are inaccurate or do not belong to me. 
I sent Experian letters on XX/XX/XXXX2022 asking them to not only verify these accounts but to produce proof of the method of their investigation. 

Below I attached letters sent to this company on XX/XX/XXXX ( estimated time of arrival XX/XX/XXXX, mailing receipts showing when they received the letters, the 2nd set of letters stamped and signed by a notirized official and a mailing receipt for that as well.

Experian did not verify these accounts- 1st violation. 
Experian did not update the status of these accounts to under dispute by consumer- 2nd violation.

Experian did not provide their method of investigation- 3rd violation The only update I see to my account is that Experian added the same collection to my account TWICE! This is illegal. I asked them to verify XXXX Retail XXXX account and they ignored that request but on XX/XX/XXXX they added the same collections account to my report under XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX It is illegal to have the same account posted twice but under two different names!
