Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to you as the holder of credit card account number XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX to report an issue negatively impacting my credit report that appears to be in violation of the provisions of 15 U.S. Code 1666b, as well as other relevant sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

According to 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors must send periodic statements, including all information required by section 1637 ( b ), at least 21 days before the payment due date. This requirement ensures that consumers have sufficient time to receive, review, and make necessary payments without being unfairly penalized for late payments.

Additionally, the FCRA, specifically sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, mandates that credit reporting agencies and information furnishers correct any inaccurate or incomplete information in credit reports and ensure the maximum accuracy of information contained in consumer files.

I have identified that the statements for my credit card have not been delivered in compliance with these requirements, resulting in the appearance of late payments on my credit report. This non-compliance has adversely affected my credit score.

I formally request that you investigate and correct any inaccurate information related to these late payments on my credit report. Below are the details of the affected payments : XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I would appreciate your prompt attention to this matter to rectify any errors in my credit report. I am willing to provide any additional documentation necessary for your investigation. 

I look forward to receiving written confirmation of the actions taken to correct this information and ensure compliance with the relevant regulations.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, VA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX XXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally request the removal of the account associated with XXXX XXXX XXXX from my credit report. Despite multiple attempts to obtain proper debt validation through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), XXXX XXXX has consistently failed to provide the necessary documentation proving they own the debt in question. Instead, they have only responded with billing statements, which do not meet the legal requirements for debt validation. 

According to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( b ), debt collectors are required to provide adequate validation of a debt when requested. This validation must include proof of an assignment of contract or documentation demonstrating legal ownership of the debt. Billing statements alone are insufficient for debt validation, as they do not establish that the debt collector has the right to collect on the debt.

In addition, under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the accuracy of the information they report. Since XXXX XXXX has failed to provide proper validation of this debt, the continued reporting of this account on my credit report violates these federal laws. 

For your reference, I have attached copies of the CFPB complaints I have filed and the responses from XXXX XXXX XXXX. These documents further demonstrate their failure to provide the required debt validation. 

I respectfully request that you investigate this matter and remove any and all references to XXXX XXXX XXXX from my credit report. Please confirm in writing once this account has been removed. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and resolution. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Closing on a mortgage — Changes in loan terms during or after closing
Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
A simple loan modification to remove ex-wife from the mortgage due to divorce. Rather than a simple modification, I was forced to go through an entire closing process with excessive demands for qualification and excessive and improper closing costs for a mortgage that was already in my name. Even though I was well financially qualified ( assets far in excess of the loan amount ) and had home valuation over two times the amount of the loan, I was put through the ringer to " re-qualify. '' In addition, I was forced to pay excessive closing costs, including appraisal fees, credit reports, lender 's title, lender 's endorsement, settlement fees, document fees, a modification/assumption fee, etc etc. This should have been a simple loan mod without all of the fees paid again. Initially they had estimated over {$7000.00} in closing costs for a simple loan mod. When I complained it was reduced but still had to pay over {$3500.00}. 

Right before closing I was instructed not to make the payment for the current month and then received a late fee and overdue payment notice.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My account with Equifax was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Equifax Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!
