Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Subject : Complaint Against TransUnion Regarding Impact on Creditworthiness Dear CFPB, I am writing to formally file a complaint against TransUnion regarding negative remarks listed on my consumer report that are adversely affecting my creditworthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, reputation, and mode of living, as outlined under 15 U.S. Code 1681a, Definitions ; rules of construction, section ( d ). 

I have reviewed my consumer report from TransUnion and have identified the negative remarks that portray my financial behavior. That entry has hindered my ability to secure a mortgage loan, which is crucial for my financial stability and future. 

Despite my efforts to address this negative information directly with TransUnion, I have not seen any changes. Specifically, I have requested that these remarks be updated to reflect that the account is paid and closed. If TransUnion is unable or unwilling to make these changes, I believe that the negative remarks should be removed from my consumer report entirely, as they do not accurately represent my current financial standing. 


I urge the CFPB to investigate this matter and compel TransUnion to either update the remarks to " paid and closed '' or remove it from my credit report altogether. The continued presence of this negative entry is unjustly impacting my financial opportunities and overall quality of life. 

Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I appreciate your assistance and look forward to your response. 

Sincerely,

Complaint narrative:
Regardless of the multiple written requests, the ITEMS listed below are still reporting on my credit report which is a violation of FCRA. The Bureaus failed to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time declared by law, they failed to properly investigate the matter by using a third party as their verification provider and have continued reporting the unconfirmed & unverified information. Given all my attempts to address it directly with 3 CREDIT BUREAUS, they are willfully negligent and non-complying with federal statutes & I need this matter handled immediately. Please remove the items below in my file : XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$900.00} XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$870.00} XXXX XXXX Balance : {$2100.00} XXXX XXXX Balance : {$24000.00} XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance : {$800.00} XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance : {$430.00} XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance : {$190.00} XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance : {$910.00} XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance : {$1100.00} XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance : {$160.00} XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance : {$140.00} XXXX  XXXX Bankruptcy : Discharged Date Filed/Reported : XX/XX/XXXX Reference # : XXXX XXXX XXXX
