Consumer complaint received 2025-04-05 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
Upon careful review, substantial and clear discrepancies have been identified between the account details reported by TransUnion and the authentic documentation provided by XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, constituting grounds for immediate removal under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, TransUnion inaccurately lists an " account number '' ending with XXXX. The original lender documentation clearly indicates this number is exclusively a loan number, distinctly different from the actual collateral account number ( ending in XXXX ) and the related separate account number ( ending in XXXX ). Further, TransUnion erroneously reports the company 's address as XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXX, TX XXXX, while official bank records explicitly state the lenders legitimate address as XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, GA XXXX. Additionally, TransUnion improperly classifies the account as a standard " installment loan, '' contrary to the original, official establishment of the account as a secured Certificate of Deposit ( CD ) loan, which carries distinctly different terms, conditions, and reporting requirements. Given these significant discrepanciesaddress, loan classification, and account number mismatchesit is evident that TransUnion has failed to conduct proper verification as mandated under FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ). These inaccuracies not only misrepresent my credit history but also adversely impact my credit standing unfairly. Therefore, I formally request TransUnion immediately remove this inaccurately reported information from my credit report and provide explicit documentation regarding their verification process, including any information or communications they received that led them to report and verify such clearly erroneous data.

Complaint narrative:
Attempted to communicate with a representative to arrange a payment plan ahead of legal proceedings. However, I wasnt offered an affordable option based on my lack of income. The plan I was approved for only offered to split the debt into to large monthly payments. When I offered to fabricate income figures, I was then offered a more affordable repayment plan spread out over the course of 4 months. Seems a bit odd and unethical that I would be permitted to falsify income data just to become eligible for a lower monthly repayment plan.

I am filing a complaint against Savit Collection Company regarding a medical debt they are attempting to collect. I was not properly notified about this debt prior to it being reported to the credit bureaus. As a result, it is now negatively affecting my credit report.
