Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have noticed that my credit report contains incorrect personal information, which has led to the appearance of accounts I have never opened or had any connection to. I am a victim of identity theft, and my information was used without my knowledge or consent. Following TransUnion 's guidance, I filed an FTC Identity Theft Report and submitted all required documents, yet the fraudulent items still remain on my report. This ongoing issue is deeply frustrating and continues to harm my credit.

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX DiscoverCard Re : Dispute of Incorrect Credit Reporting and Notice of Securitization : Dear DiscoverCard, I am writing to formally dispute and address the incorrect reporting of the above-referenced account to the credit bureaus. According to my records, this account was charged off ; however, I have noticed that a balance continues to be reported as due, which constitutes a violation of applicable laws, including recent case law in the United States.

Under federal and state fair credit reporting laws, any reporting of a charged-off account that still shows a balance due is inaccurate and misleading. Specifically, the misreporting of this account adversely impacts my credit score unjustly, and I contend that the continued reporting of an outstanding balance after a charge-off constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and relevant case law, such as the US Supreme Court rulings affirming the importance of truthful and complete credit reporting.

Furthermore, I wish to bring to your attention the securitization of debts, which complicates the traditional ownership and reporting processes. If this account has been securitized or transferred through third parties, proper documentation must be provided to establish your authority to report this debt. Any failure to do so violates my rights and the accuracy standards mandated by the FCRA.

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.
