Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, Pursuant to relevant laws under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I hereby lodge a complaint against TransUnion, which is a consumer reporting agency, for violations of my consumer rights. I have a case number for my Claim from TransUnion in this matter which is XXXX. I called in on a recorded line and stated the below relevant laws to their employee and their manager and they did not comply with my lawful demands. I stated to them the following : Under 15 USC 1681 section 602 ( a ), it is mandated that consumer reporting agencies exercise their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for consumers ' privacy rights. Additionally, 15 USC 6801 outlines Congress 's policy that financial institutions, including furnishers of information to credit agencies, must respect customer privacy and safeguard nonpublic personal information.

Per 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies may only furnish a consumer report with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. XXXX and the furnisher of information to credit agencies have not obtained my written consent to furnish this information, thereby violating my privacy rights. 

Furthermore, 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) dictates that financial institutions must inform consumers of their right to exercise nondisclosure options, which was not done in this case. Additionally, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including adverse information in consumer reports without proper authorization. This account, being reported without my consent, constitutes a violation of this provision.

Moreover, 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( A ) stipulates that information furnished to consumer reporting agencies must be accurate. XXXX and XXXX have failed to maintain reasonable procedures, as required by 15 U.S. Code 1681e, to prevent violations of FCRA sections.

Lastly, according to 12 CFR 1016.7, consumers have the right to opt out of reporting services at any time, which I let them know is my will to be done. I showed them the following was on my consumer report in violation of the relevant laws : them to remove the following off my consumer report as it is done against my will : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and its Alleged balance of {$10000.00}, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and its Alleged balance of {$15000.00}, XXXX XX/XX/XXXXand its Alleged Balance of {$3300.00}, XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXXand its Alleged balance of {$7700.00}, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 
Your immediate attention to this matter is essential. I anticipate a prompt and satisfactory resolution. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I experienced identity theft, resulting in unauthorized access to my email, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, XXXX, and Discover accounts. Fraudulent charges appeared on my XXXX, XXXX, and Discover cards. XXXX and XXXX acknowledged the fraud and credited my accounts accordingly. However, XXXX denied my fraud claim citing several reasons : I had made payments to the account ; a XXXX Pay account linked to a previous phone number of mine was used for transactions ; there was access to my Discover online account which I failed to report as fraudulent ; and the FTC did not respond to their inquiry. I explained that these were consequences of the identity theft itself, making it unjust to use these as grounds to deny my fraud claim. Moreover, I am puzzled by XXXX 's failure to detect hundreds of suspicious charges and their decision to increase my credit line XXXX  during this period, further exacerbating the situation. Despite being a loyal customer for over XXXX  years and their promises of XXXX fraud liability, Discover has not supported me in this critical time but instead sought reasons to deny assistance.
