Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I have missed or been late on a few payments with XXXX XXXX XXXX. Due to the XXXX pandemic, I lost my job and was unable to make payments on time for the months of XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. Unfortunately, this led to a negative impact on my credit score. However, I have now been able to catch up on all my debt owed and I am no longer in a financially unstable position. I strongly believe that considering the unprecedented events of the pandemic and the resulting economic crisis, my missed or late payments should not be held against me. I respectfully request that all my late or missed payments be removed from my credit report and wiped from the creditor 's records. I understand the importance of maintaining a good credit score and I am committed to making on-time payments in the future. I hope you will consider my request and help me improve my financial situation.

Company: LCI Acquisition Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I was recently advised XXXX was reporting erroneous public information of a Bankruptcy in the State of North Carolina, which I've never been a resident of. This letter I am submitting to XXXX and LCI, demanding they delete this bankruptcy that is reporting on my credit report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Georgia, XXXX SSN : XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/1975 LCI Consumer Center XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX RE : Warning to Remove Incorrect Item XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I have previously disputed Reference Number XXXX Bankruptcy XXXX  XXXX Dismissed with you. In response, you verified the item as accurate, stating that your office has verified the information with the US Bankruptcy Court-Western District of North Carolina XXXX 

I contacted the court disputing this bankruptcy directly with their office, and their response is enclosed for review. 

From conversations over the phone and in the letter, they sent me, they have confirmed they do not report to you or any Credit Bureau for that matter ; therefore, your initial response verifying the item with the court was either an error on your part or misleading. 

Either way, the reporting of this Bankruptcy, which I NEVER initiated or requested does not comply with FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 16811 ), and the information must be deleted immediately.
