Complaint narrative:
Dear TransUnion Dispute Department, I am writing to dispute a collection account on my credit report which is being reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The account in question has negatively impacted my credit score and financial wellbeing, and I believe it should be removed from my credit report. 

I have reviewed my credit report and found that XXXX XXXX, XXXX has reported a debt that is not valid or accurate. I have no knowledge or record of this debt and I believe that it has been reported in error. Furthermore, I have not received any notice or correspondence from XXXX XXXX, XXXX regarding this alleged debt. 

As an informed consumer, I am aware of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and I request that TransUnion conduct an investigation into this matter. Specifically, I request that TransUnion contact XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and request verification of this debt, including documentation that supports the accuracy of the information being reported. 

Please note that as a consumer, I am entitled to see the source of the information that is being reported on my credit report. This includes the original contract that contains my signature. I request that this documentation be provided as part of the verification process. 

I also want to emphasize that a breakdown of charges is not considered verification of debt. I request that XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX provide proper validation of this debt, which includes a complete chain of title for the debt and proof that they are legally entitled to collect on it. 

According to the FCRA, 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), if a consumer disputes the accuracy of any information on their credit report, the credit reporting agency must conduct a reasonable investigation within 30 days and review all relevant information provided by the consumer. If the information can not be verified or is found to be inaccurate, the credit reporting agency must promptly delete or modify the information.

Furthermore, according to FCRA 609 ( a ) ( 1 ), a consumer has the right to request and obtain all information about them that is being reported by a credit reporting agency. This includes the right to request the original contract and a complete chain of title for any debt that is being reported. 

Finally, I request that TransUnion delete this collection account from my credit report if XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is unable to provide verification of the debt within the 30-day period required by the FCRA. It is my belief that this account has been reported in error, and I respectfully request that TransUnion take immediate action to correct this error. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB officer, I have contacted both your department & the company ( XXXX  ) this month and I was being confirmed by the company, there had been NO credit reporting late for 30 days. Due to that, my credit went down to XXXX points while I am in the process of refinancing another home. 
Today, I have reported that XX/XX/2023 payment has been recorded late which is clearly NOT the correct case. I have sent screenshot of my credit monitoring page to show that later reported on my credit. 

I therefore am asking you to remove this credit reporting from my credit. Thanks!

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Pursuant to the FCRA, it is EXPERIAN 's grave duty and responsibility to report correct and accurate information on my credit report and file. However, they are not doing so. EXPERIAN is reporting inaccurate late payments for the XXXX/ DEPT OF ED account ending in XXXX. The inaccurate late payments include the reporting of 150 days delinquent on XX/XX/2018. This is incorrect and is supposed to be reporting as PAID AS AGREED. Moreover, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) of the FCRA, a consumer report does not contain information or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. A late payment is a " transaction ''. Therefore, the reporting of the inaccurate late payments results in EXPERIAN violating my federally protected consumer rights. To add to this, I did NOT give EXPERIAN written instruction/ permission to furnish these inaccurate late payments on my report or file, violating 15 U.S.C . 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ). It is VERY VERY clear that EXPERIAN has violated my rights under the FCRA and the reporting of the inaccurate late payments has caused me and my reputation severe harm and discrimination.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against the credit reporting agencies for their willful neglect to investigate the inaccurate items on my credit report. I have reason to believe that my credit report contains inaccurate and unauthorized information that has been placed on it without my written permission, violating my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

So these accounts XXXX shows inaccuracies XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Have all these violations with proof to prove my case and in know the scrutiny the Credit agencies are under for not following the law and I'm not afraid to take this as far as needed to have these items removed or I'm I'm left no choice to proceseed to legation!!

I have made multiple attempts to dispute these inaccuracies with the credit reporting agencies, but they have not taken any action to investigate or correct them. This is a clear violation of 15 USC 1681i, which requires credit reporting agencies to conduct a reasonable investigation of any disputed item on a credit report.

Furthermore, I have reason to believe that my personal information was used without my written authorization, which is a violation of 15 USC 1681 section 604 A. As a consumer, I have the right to control who has access to my personal information and how it is used. The credit reporting agencies did not obtain my written permission before placing these items on my credit report, which is a clear violation of my consumer rights.

I believe that these actions fall under the term of identity theft as defined in 15 USC 1681c-2. My personal information was used without my permission, which constitutes unauthorized use of my information and is a violation of my consumer rights under 15 USC 1681q. These inaccuracies and violations need to be removed from my credit report immediately.

I want to remind the credit reporting agencies that I am aware of my rights to sue any company that knowingly furnishes inaccurate information on my credit report, which c
an result in penalties of up to {$1000.00} per violation under 15 USC 1681n.

In conclusion, I urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate my complaint against the credit reporting agencies and hold them accountable for their willful neglect to investigate and correct the inaccurate items on my credit report. I request that the inaccurate items be removed immediately and that the credit reporting agencies take steps to prevent this from happening in the future.
