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

Complaint narrative:
I have submitted to the credit bureau to have a debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX removed several times. The debt collector has re-aged the debt. I have sent evidence of this, yet the credit reporting agency has not removed it. They keep stating that the debt buyer is correct. The last date of payment to XXXX XXXX  was XX/XX/XXXX. The account became delinquent on XX/XX/XXXX. No further payments were made to XXXX. The balance at the last statement ( XX/XX/XXXX was {$1200.00} ). XXXX XXXX  to did not close the account until XX/XX/XXXX. In the remaining XXXX  months before XXXX charged off the account it accrued {$2900.00} in late fees ( {$40.00} per month ) and interest. I did not use this account during that time nor were any payments made. I currently also have a complaint against XXXX for this account as well as I have asked them to remedy this situation as well several times. Re-aging a debt is illegal and is causing difficulty for me to buy with credit as well as my ability to rent a home.

Complaint narrative:
Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified accounts listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct. 

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verified that these accounts are being reported correctly? Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified. 

Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA. 

Since you claim youve verified the accounts listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the banks directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THESE ACCOUNTS? I believe you have not verified these accounts based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Complaint narrative:
My account with was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 
This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in 60 days to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 
I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule XXXX and It was never provided. 
This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 
Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
