Complaint narrative:
Subject : TransUnion 's Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act - Urgent Assistance Needed Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally request your assistance in addressing an ongoing issue with TransUnion, who I believe has repeatedly violated my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

On three separate occasions, I have disputed incorrect bankruptcy information listed on my credit report, and each time, TransUnion has failed to conduct a proper investigation. 

The details are as follows : - XXXX : I submitted my first dispute regarding the incorrect bankruptcy information. TransUnion claimed to have investigated the issue, but the record remained unchanged. 
- XXXX : I filed another dispute, and on XXXX than 12 hours laterI received an email stating that they had again investigated the matter and the record remained unchanged. Given the rapid response, it is clear to me that they simply reused the results from the previous dispute without performing a legitimate investigation. 
- XXXX : I made a third attempt to dispute the bankruptcy record. On XXXX at XXXX XXXX, I received yet another email indicating that TransUnion investigated the public record and found no changes. 

I requested in writing that TransUnion provide me with their method and procedures for investigating the dispute, but they have failed to respond appropriately. As of now, they have not provided any proof of proper investigation or compliance with the law. I am left with an incorrect bankruptcy record on my credit report that is not mine, and TransUnion is continuing to disregard my rights. 

The bankruptcy record in question belongs to my father, XXXX XXXX, who has a similar Social Security number and previously lived at my address. I have never filed for bankruptcy, yet TransUnion refuses to correct this mistake. 

I am seeking your help in documenting this neglect and holding TransUnion accountable for their failure to comply with FCRA. If they do not remove this incorrect public record, I plan to take legal action. 

Please help me get the relief I am entitled to. TransUnion 's actions are not only irresponsible but deeply distressing, as they are profiting at the expense of consumers like me. 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to your guidance and support. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
My account with this company is being reported late and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company 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 in MONTHS REPORTING LATE 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.

This company 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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports.

Company: Sezzle Inc.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
Sezzle is a buy now pay later company. I was required to pay for a down payment for my purchase. On XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to purchase something through XXXX via Sezzle. I was told that my card would not get charged for a down payment until the order goes through. The order was not successful however my card was charged by Sezzle anyway. I completed a alternative purchase from XXXX through Sezzle and my card was charged for that down payment. I contacted Sezzle on XX/XX/XXXX regarding my card getting charged for a down payment for a purchase that was never completed. I contacted Sezzle via their " 24/7 '' live chat. I did not receive a response until XX/XX/XXXX. They did not address my card being charged for a non existent purchase. On XX/XX/XXXX I was told I would be refunded in 7/10 business days. However I never received my refund. The issue is I should of never been charged in the first place. They claimed I got charged for a cancelled purchase, but the purchase was never cancelled, it declined. The purchase never went through so therefore they were never suppose to charge my card.
