Which I mailed on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ( received by TU on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ) TransUnion DENIED my request citing Section 605B of the FCRA, but does not specifically identify ( as required ) the reason to deny my request.

See attached letter dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX : I certified mailed another ID theft claim to TransUnion. This time using a copy of their own form ; XXXX XXXX Theft XXXX Assistance XXXX. To avoid TransUnions stalling tactic which they use for every single ID theft claim by every single Victim. Referencing the following accounts.

In TransUnions letter they denied my request to block trade-lines, I properly identified and filed with all required documents per FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c- )  TransUnion at this time declines to block the information you have identified for one or more of the following reasons : In accordance with Section 605B of the FCRA XXXX we have determined that your request has either a ) been made in error ; b ) is a misrepresentation of material fact relevant to the request to block and/or c ) you have obtained possession of goods, services or money as a result of the transaction issue. 

TransUnion Does not provide me with a specific reason why, ... for one or more of the following reasons : I am requesting for Transunion to : Please identify which reason or reasons for each tradeline I have claimed Identity theft that TransUnion has denied my request to Block. 
Was it.. 
a ) Made in error? if this is TransUnions reason please provide the specific error so I have an ability to correct it or address this error. 
Or was it b. ) a misrepresentation of material fact relevant to the request to block? If TransUnions claims this reason please provide me with the Material Fact TransUnion claims was misrepresented and provide the proof as required by law that TransUnion received in their investigation, when TransUnion received this information, how TransUnion received this information and the source of the information. 
Or was it c. ) you have obtained possession of goods, services or money as a result of the transaction issue?

When TransUnion received this information, how TransUnion received this information and the source of the information. 

Additionally, I am requesting if my case has been forwarded to a XXXX XXXX or specialized personal for evaluation and to identify this group or personal. 

This is as clear as i can be. I am hoping TransUnion does not try to dilute their response with irrelevant nonsense. I mean, I would hope the purpose for both sides is to resolve this issue and the best way to do that is with clarity and transparency. Please understand the longer this takes the more damage myself and other victims would be exposed to. 
A certified letter with this duplicate information will be sent out on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to ensure I have used all viable options for notice.
