Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX and on multiple occasions thereafter, I submitted disputes to TransUnion regarding the continued reporting and verification of inaccurate Date Opened information on several collection accounts in my credit file. Despite these disputes, TransUnion has repeatedly verified these accounts without providing proper validation, in direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Metro 2 reporting guidelines. 

The accounts in question are being reported with the Date Opened reflecting when the collection agency acquired the debt not the date the original creditor opened the account or the true Date of First Delinquency ( DOFD ). This misrepresentation : 1. Violates FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ), which requires furnishers to accurately report the DOFD. 
XXXX. XXXX illegally re-age accounts, extending the reporting period beyond the 7-year limit established under FCRA 605 ( c ). 
3. Conflicts with Metro 2 standards, which require the original account opening date and DOFD to be reported accurately to prevent misleading credit information. 

By continuing to verify and report this inaccurate data, TransUnion is engaging in the ongoing publication of false and damaging information, constituting willful noncompliance under FCRA 616 and negligent noncompliance under FCRA 617. 

Demand : I hereby demand that TransUnion : Conduct a full, lawful reinvestigation of these accounts. 
Require each furnisher to provide documented proof of the true DOFD from the original creditor. 
Immediately correct or delete all accounts where the Date Opened or DOFD is inaccurately reported.

Company: Chime Financial Inc
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
While I was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX and completely XXXX {$440.00} in unauthorized transactions were made from my Chime account. 

I immediately reported the charges and filed a dispute as soon as I was aware and able. On XX/XX/XXXX I filed the initial dispute ( Dispute # XXXX ). I provided all requested documentation, including XXXX XXXX proving I was unable to use my account during the time of the transactions. I also filed a police report which I submitted. 

Chime initially told me the case was under investigation and that I may receive a provisional credit, but they ultimately denied my claim without a clear explanation. I filed the 2nd time on XX/XX/XXXX ( Dispute # XXXX ) and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX ( Dispute # XXXX ). When I contacted support multiple times, I was given conflicting information, vague answers, and no resolution. 

I have since submitted a formal request to Chime asking for a full explanation and copies of their investigation records. So far, I have not received any meaningful response. 

These funds are critical to my survival, especially as I am facing housing displacement and am supposed to move to a new location next week on tope of a very serious health crisis. I believe Chime failed to properly investigate my dispute and may have violated the Electronic Fund Transfer Act. 

I am requesting that CFPB investigate this matter and that Chime be required to issue a refund for the disputed charges.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
I'm writing to dispute inaccurate late payment notations being reported on my credit file for an account that, to my knowledge and records, has been paid as agreed and never late. 

I want to be very clear here : I am requesting validation of these reported late payments, because as someone who monitors their credit closely and makes every effort to pay on time, this came as a complete surprise. If youre going to report something as serious and damaging as a late payment, it better be backed by clear, verifiable, and accurate documentation not vague data or automated reporting errors. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), you are required to report information that is 100 % accurate, complete, and not misleading. Reporting a consumer as late when they have not been late is defamatory, unfairly lowers credit scores, and can create real harm from higher interest rates to declined applications. I am not going to tolerate that on my record, especially when its inaccurate.
