Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Company: NATIONAL DEBT RELIEF LLC
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year> I signed up with National Debt Relief Company who negotiates with your Creditors for a lower amount to settle your debts. Initially they took XXXX payments of {$410.00} bi weekly from my bank account to build up funds to negotiate with. This amounted to {$3700.00}. Later I received a letter from the IRS for back taxes so I had to get out of the XXXX program. They would not let me out without paying additional fees of {$150.00} a month for 12 months. This created an extreme hardship considering I had to pay the IRS so much. I don't recall getting anything accomplished, only the paying of fees. My credit score which has always been around XXXX took a dive and I haven't been able to recover in XXXX years. My score is at XXXX and I am paying down bills but only receiving a point here and there. That {$5500.00} could have been used to pay down more of my debt. In the mean time I am being sued, wages garnished, collections and charge offs but have not received any XXXX.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, XXXX  our mail was stolen from a locked neighborhood mail box. Unknown to me there was a Kohl 's Capital One credit card in the mail. Kohl 's said they had changed to a new credit card agency. I was out of town when the mail was stolen. My husband immediately notified the Postal Service on XX/XX/year>. I did not know anything about the card until I started getting overdue notices from Capital One. None of the charges were to Kohls but to motels and quick marts, etc. 

I immediately contacted Capital One via phone to dispute the charges. I was told to submit much personal information to validate my identity... SS #, picture of my drivers license, proof of my address, etc. all of which I sent on their secure site. I sent all twice as they said the first attempt was blurred. I have attempted repeatedly to find out if any action is being taken through phone communications with their Fraud Dept.

I keep being told I will hear back in 7 to 10 business days. I Have also sent a letter & documents to Capital One offices in XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX asking for a resolution. I've had no response. XXXX  phone call to the fraud dept. revealed that the documents I sent proving my identity have not yet been reviewed. 

I continue to receive emails which vary from telling me I need to make a payment to threatening to report me to the credit bureau. 

After my initial contact with the company XX/XX/year> reporting the card theft and fraudulent charges I waited to hear back. My follow up calls were on XX/XX/year>, XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>. I also made calls that I did not record the dates of before XX/XX/year>. 

I have a record of the fraudulant charges and all other communication with the company. I am at a loss as to how to proceed ... Can you help me? 

Thank You, XXXX
