Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NC

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 account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the reporting of an account that has been charged off but continues to show an outstanding balance on my credit report. This account information is incorrect, and I request an investigation Despite the account being marked as charged off, it is still reporting an outstanding balance, which is misleading and affects my credit score. I believe this reporting is inaccurate, as charged-off accounts should not indicate an outstanding balance. 

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I request an investigation into this matter. Please provide me with any documentation that supports the reported balance, and rectify my credit report to reflect accurate information. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the outcome of your investigation.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX. XXXX XXXX Washington, XXXX XXXX Subject : Complaint Against TransUnion Regarding Repeated Charge-Off Reporting on UPGRADEINC Account and Failure to Provide XXXX Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau , I am filing a formal complaint against TransUnion regarding the inaccurate and potentially unlawful reporting of my XXXX account # XXXX. 

Nature of the Complaint : While shopping for a vehicle, I reviewed my credit report and discovered that this XXXX account is reported as charged off for XXXX consecutive monthsfrom XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX ). 

This repeated monthly reporting of a charge-off is misleading and appears to double-report the derogatory status of the account. A charge-off is a one-time event, not something that should be marked as occurring repeatedly. This repeated reporting creates a false impression of multiple charge-offs and unfairly impacts my credit profile. 

Furthermore, I have never received a 1099-C form, which would be required by the IRS if the debt had been canceled. The absence of this form raises additional questions about the accuracy and legality of the information being reported.

Legal Concerns : Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), TransUnion is required to maintain maximum possible accuracy in the information it provides.

Repeatedly reporting a charge-off month after month violates this standard and is misleading to future lenders.

If the debt has been canceled or forgiven, a 1099-C must be issued. Failure to do so may indicate a violation of both IRS regulations and consumer protection laws.

Company: ALLIANT CREDIT UNION
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
Since XX/XX/year>, I have been unable to view individual transaction details for my Alliant Credit Union checking account. The Alliant website and mobile app no longer show cleared or pending transactions. Additionally, my third-party financial aggregator ( XXXX by XXXX ) has stopped receiving transaction data since that date, which confirms this is a back-end data issue. 

I have contacted Alliant support multiple times via phone, email, and secure messages. While they have acknowledged the problem, they have not provided a clear explanation, an estimated time to resolution, or any temporary method for viewing my recent transactions.

This outage has continued for over a week and has left me without any way to monitor spending, check for unauthorized charges, or manage my finances which is particularly problematic for an online-only institution like Alliant that provides no branch access. 

As of now, the issue remains unresolved and I have not been offered any alternative way to access my transaction history.

Company: HYUNDAI CAPITAL AMERICA
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am not disputing the ownership of the debt. I am disputing the legal status of the charged-off account as it is being reported.

This is not a duplicate complaint. In my prior complaint, Kia Finance America failed to respond to a material legal question about the status of a charged-off debtspecifically, whether they issued a Form 1099-C, and whether the debt is still legally owed and reportable.

Kia marked this new complaint as a duplicate despite the fact that they have never addressed the legal question at the heart of the dispute. Sending a debt validation letter or restating my payment history is not an answer to whether the debt was canceled and if a 1099-C was filed.

I am asking for : A direct answer : Was a 1099-C ever issued for this debt?

If yes, the account should be removed from my credit reports as it is no longer owed.

If no, Kia must clearly explain why this charged-off account is still legally collectible and reported without that form.

Dismissing this as a duplicate is an attempt to avoid responding to a legal and financial issue that affects both my credit history and tax obligations. I request that the CFPB review Kias compliance under the FCRA and IRS 1099-C reporting guidelines.

Screenshot from Experian showing Kia account still reported as charged off and {$48000.00} past due as of XX/XX/year>. I am requesting verification of the legal status of this debt and whether it has been canceled or forgiven, in accordance with IRS and FCRA guidelines.

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 account listed without my expressed written consent.
