Complaint narrative:
I have been disputing the same items with the Bureau since XX/XX/XXXX, 2017 ; erroneous negative accounts and several unknown and unauthorized inquiries. The Bureau has failed to remove the accounts from my report. I asked for a thorough investigation but that has not happened. They are simply replying verified without explanation as to how they verified the information, or without providing me with the requested documentation ; original contract and my signature.

Also, the Bureau is no longer replying, timely. I am not getting acknowledgement that they are investigating. I am not getting requested documentation as proof of verification. They are violating my consumer rights and this process has become costly and stressful. 
Also, while I have been disputing the items on my report, they continue to insert unverified and unknown items. They will not remove the items or provide proof that I authorized the inquiries or that the accounts belong to me. They are not following credit laws.

Complaint narrative:
in summer XX/XX/XXXX and again in early XX/XX/XXXX TransUnion experienced a database glitch that deleted EVERYONE 'S TransUnion Inquiries. Once the glitch was realized, TransUnion added them back to my report. it is illegal for an item to be added back to my report without you getting written notification 5 days prior to it appearing. This was transunion issue and not mine. I contacted TransUnion in good faith to ask them to delete the inquiries that they had illegally re-added. The representive XXXX that I spoke with told me that he would not be removing them as of XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX. These inquiries add a hardship and my rights were violated by TransUnion. I am asking that TransUnion stop victimizing me. As a resolution, i am asking that all of my TransUnion inquiries be deleted permanently from my report as a violation took place when they were illegally added.
