Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
A violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) occurs when the regulations governing the collection, distribution, and use of consumer credit information are not followed. The FCRA mandates that consumer reporting agencies ( CRAs ) use reasonable procedures to ensure the accuracy of all information in credit reports. If a consumer experiences harm due to an FCRA violation, they may have the right to file a lawsuit against the CRA, seeking compensation for actual damages, statutory damages, and attorneys fees. The accounts listed in my letter are inaccurate, and I am requesting a thorough investigation into these errors.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB Representative, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against TransUnion for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Uniform Commercial Code ( UCC ) concerning inaccurate information on my credit report. Despite numerous requests for corrections, TransUnion has persistently responded that the disputed information has been " verified, '' which is not only misleading but also untrue. 

The FCRA, under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ), mandates that consumer reporting agencies conduct a reasonable investigation into disputes and correct any inaccuracies. TransUnion 's failure to remove fraudulent accounts and incorrect personal information that do not belong to me is a direct violation of this statute. Furthermore, I have evidence that these accounts were due to identity theft and a mix-up with another individual 's information. 

Additionally, I have gathered documentation that proves TransUnion did not perform due diligence in verifying the information with the original furnishers, which contradicts their claim of " verification. '' This negligence violates the UCC principles regarding the accuracy and integrity of credit reporting. 

The inaccuracies in my credit report have not only caused significant XXXX XXXX but have also resulted in substantial financial losses and wasted time that I can not reclaim. I am requesting that TransUnion immediately remove all accounts that do not pertain to me and take necessary steps to ensure compliance with the law moving forward. 

I will also be filing separate complaints regarding each creditor and account that has been wrongfully reported on my credit history, seeking maximum penalties to help recoup some of my losses. 

I have enclosed copies of the documentation that supports my claims and I urge your office to take appropriate action against TransUnion to protect consumer rights and enforce compliance with the law. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX Enclosures : Documentation ( statement ) of inaccurate accounts along with my Transunion credit report to prove the illegal reporting of accounts mentioned in this complaint for reference.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX CFPB, RE : CFPB Case # XXXX We received an email from the CFPB on XX/XX/year> advising us that CFPB Case # XXXX was forwarded to the OCC for review because the CFPB didnt have the 3rd Party Debt Collector Watanabe Ing LLP in their database . 

On XX/XX/year>, we received a call from an OCC representative advising us that OCC doesnt investigate Debt Collectors, therefore the OCC officially told me to officially tell the you ( the CFPB ), that the CFPB ( 1 ) needs to immediately reopen the existing CFPB Case # XXXX so that our family doesnt miss the 30 day deadline in reporting Fraudulent Debt Collectors pursuant to the FDCPA and ( 2 ) that the CFPB immediately needs to add Watanabe Ing LLP to their database ( as the CFPB protocol allows ) and to investigate and prosecute the complaint ( CFPB Case # XXXX ) that we originally submitted, but to only investigate/prosecute Watanabe Ing LLP 3rd party debt collector role and not American Savings Banks role ( which the OCC will investigate/prosecute ). 

Also, we have additional admissible evidence in regards to XXXX XXXX XXXX that please needs to be investigated and prosecuted by the CFPB. Please see XXXX XXXX # XXXX ( attached ). 

Thank you for your prompt attention to these matters, we appreciate you!

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.

Please DELETE the accounts, or inaccurate information, from my file immediately XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX  XXXX
