Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to address discrepancies I have uncovered in my personal credit report that are significantly impacting my financial standing, particularly concerning my ability to secure housing. While I acknowledge the potential for errors, I have familiarized myself with the dispute process and understand the mandated investigation time-frame of XXXX days. Despite submitting my FTC report, which identified an error, and the removal of this account by other bureaus, your bureau continues to report them. This leaves me perplexed as to how this account was verified by your bureau when others have successfully removed it. Therefore, I request the immediate removal of this account from my file, as they are inaccurate, erroneous, incomplete, or unverifiable.

Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score — Other problem getting your report or credit score
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/24, I received a credit alert from my bank that my Equifax credit score changed. Since I pay monthly for credit monitoring with Equifax, I logged into the Equifax member website to check my credit score. To my surprise, my credit score dropped a devastating XXXX points overnight from XXXX to XXXX!! 

I reviewed my credit report and no changes had taken place, no new accounts, no new inquiries and I had received no alerts from Equifax 's credit monitoring service. There is absolutely no derogatory information on my Equifax credit report or any new actions that would warrant an XXXX decrease in my credit score. 

I called Equifax and spoke with a representative who also reviewed my credit report and felt the XXXX point drop in my credit score was unjustified by any data that is actually on my credit report. The representative advised she was escalating the matter to management and read her report back to me which included all details. She advised I should hear from a manager within 24-48 hours and to date, I have not heard from anyone since my call with her this month. 

This has happened on more than XXXX occasion with Equifax and they are unable to justify it. I am concerned about possible racial profiling whereby Equifax may very well have an algorithm set that intermittently, unjustifiable and illegally issues a subpar credit score to non-white Americans. Either way, there is something going on with my account which Equifax has not corrected to ensure this error does not continue to happen and impede my chances to obtain additional credit on terms that my credit history warrants.

Complaint narrative:
Hello CFBP I have seen multiple inquiries on my credit profile that I dont recognize. 

Under the federal law, I am protected against any type of identity theft and bad use of my credit profile. 

I did not give my permission for those lenders to run my credit. 

Those inquiries are affecting my credit score and are not letting me get the best options for credit cards and loans. 

I will describe the inquiries as follows : XXXX CREDIT REPORT SHOWS : 1. XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX 2. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX 3 . XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX 4. XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX 5.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX was supposed to help me with fraudulent charges and identity theft. They said they will take care of reporting and placing the right protections in place and help through every step, but failed to follow up and even place my accounts of hold or notify my creditors of my compromised accounts. Since XXXX when I first found my accounts were compromised, I have had problems and creditors aren't believing a word I tell them. Now that XXXX XXXX XXXX has come forth with my information being on and found in the dark web since XXXX or earlier, I hope this will help my credit history get back on track and wipe those debt away. You will see that all my card balances increased and I didn't notice due to autopay. Even my XXXX was taken from me.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep frustration and disappointment regarding the continued presence of a charge off, account included in bankruptcy, and public record entries on my credit report, despite numerous attempts to have them removed. Regrettably, I must inform you that this is now several attempt to address and rectify this issue, yet the problem persists. 

I demand immediate and decisive action to thoroughly investigate these inaccuracies and ensure their complete removal from my credit report. Additionally, I expect transparent communication regarding the steps being taken to prevent similar occurrences in the future and to restore my trust in your company 's integrity. 

I urge you to prioritize this matter and take all necessary measures to address it promptly. My confidence in your company 's ability to uphold the highest standards of accuracy and accountability depends on your prompt and effective resolution of this issue. With this, I am asking for your assistance to remove these accounts in my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$2400.00} - The limit to this account was a fraction of the amount due it as stated. That is utterly unfathomable! Had a proper investigation been conducted you would have seen the error and corrected it immediately. You failed to do your job ; you must now REMOVE THIS ITEM ALTOGETHER. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} - This is showing to be XXXX past due as the current status but it also says its been transferred. Youre showing a payment due amount but how can I owe something to a company that no longer owns the account? You need to change the description to say and change the Current Status to say : Paid as Agreed. Please remove all the negative information as well as it is a violation of automatic stay and bankruptcy court orders. 

XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy Reference # : XXXX Liability : {$0.00} - This bankruptcy file date is wrong and this bankruptcy is out of statute for reporting on a credit report. It should no longer be reported because it is past the 10-year statute of limitations that a credit bureau can report. Please update the filing date and then remove.
