Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. 

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I have had an Apple Credit Card for a few years now. On XX/XX/year> I paid my card off {$4000.00}. Normally my payments are instant ; however I noticed my balance had not updated. I called to find out why and they stated that it was a large amount, so a hold would be on the account until XX/XX/XXXX. I explained I spoke to my bank and they stated the money was removed from my account the very next day, so Im not understanding why your holding anything. Fast forward to XX/XX/year> my hold has been released, but my credit limit was also decreased to {$500.00}. I called to get an explanation and the representative stated it was decreased because I didnt use the card. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, he told me its because my XXXX reported my other credit cards were over the limit. I explained I only have two other credit cards and both are at XXXX balance just about every month, so I asked when was the report pulled. He stated he doesnt know any of that. Looking at this situation nothing adds up and its ironic that after I pay my balance down to XXXX  suddenly my credit line is dropped significantly by the company. This is bad business practice and unfair as a consumer especially when you cant provide me with and real reason or proof. Apple and Goldman Sachss have been in trouble in the past for not reporting information correctly on credit reports and misleading consumers.

Complaint narrative:
This is more than 7 years old. Originally, I never made any of these alleged charges. I went into a Nordstrom and paid for this at a register, took a picture of the receipt for my records. It was never reflected. 7 years ago i sent this to them and they advised that they closed the account. However, they put it on my credit report as closed and an amountdue. They had since Charged off the account and put it on my credit report. I asked that it be reflected correctly but it has never changed. I want this removed from my report as it is inaccurate ( for 1 i paid it, # 2 i never made these charges, 3 its been over 7 years, 4 they charged it off- it shouldnt show a balance due ). 
I finally thought fine i will just pay it. when i called Nordstrom they advised that there is No account there and I couldnt pay it as there is nothing to pay. 
I literally am being haunted by this.

I am listing accounts and inquiries below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit.

I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts and inquiries has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "
