Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

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. ''

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX  XXXXXXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay.

XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX FNCL Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint regarding the inaccurate reporting of my student loans by Navient to the credit bureaus. My student loans have been in forbearance since XX/XX/year>, and I have emails from Navient to prove this fact. 

Despite providing evidence of my loans being in forbearance, the credit companies are reporting incorrect information. This has negatively impacted my credit score, and I believe that this inaccurate data should be deleted in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

I have attached copies of the emails from Navient confirming my loan forbearance for your reference. I am requesting that the inaccurate information be immediately removed from my credit report to reflect the true status of my loans. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a prompt resolution to ensure the accuracy of my credit report.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally request the immediate removal of incorrect child support debt information currently listed on my credit report. This request is in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and recent court rulings that restrict the use of consumer reports for certain types of collections. 

Despite the important notice issued by TransUnion regarding the inapplicability of consumer reports for collecting delinquent child support, my credit report still reflects such a debt. The specific details of the debt in question are as follows : Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX Child Support and XXXX XXXX XXXX Child Support Amount : XXXX has a {$18000.00} balance and XXXX XXXX has a {$16000.00} for a Combined total of {$34000.00} as of XX/XX/year>. 
Recent federal court decisions, including but not limited to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Trans Union LLC, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Case XXXX ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ), have clarified that delinquent child support obligations do not arise from a " credit transaction '' and therefore should not be reported on consumer credit reports. 

TransUnion 's notice explicitly advises third-party collectors and related entities to obtain a consumer report only when : There is a court order authorizing the provision of the consumer report. 
There is written authorization from the debtor. 
There is a contractual agreement that qualifies as a credit transaction. 
I have never provided written authorization for the reporting of this debt, nor is there any court order or relevant contractual agreement. Therefore, the reporting of this child support debt is a violation of the FCRA. 

Please be aware that continued reporting of this incorrect information not only violates federal law but also subjects TransUnion, XXXX and XXXX to potential civil liabilities, including statutory damages, actual damages, and attorneys ' fees. The FCRA allows consumers to seek damages for willful noncompliance, which can amount to up to {$1000.00} per violation, plus punitive damages and any legal costs incurred.

State: MN

Complaint narrative:
I sent certified letters to all credit bureaus in XXXX stating I have been a victim of identity theft and highlighted all fraudulent accounts with a copy of the police report included. I received a letter back on the XXXX of XXXX from TransUnion stating " Trans Union at this time declines to block the information you have identified ''. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX stated in a letter " Please be advised that XXXX, at this time, is not blocking information you named in your request ''. I never received a letter back from XXXX. Additionally, I never received a copy of my credit report from any of them. 

I was able to get one account removed from my trans union report but then it was sold to a collection 's agency ( in the amount of {$900.00} dollars with another being in the amount of {$440.00} ) that is now reporting it to all bureaus. 

There is also an account with the balance of {$2500.00} that I have been trying to get removed with no luck. I'm receiving multiple emails and calls from them weekly for payments. I started making payments just so it wouldn't keep hurting my credit for missed payments until it gets removed. 

I don't know what else to do other than keep trying to pay off these debts that aren't mine that the credit bureaus won't remove so my credit doesn't keep getting worse. I am currently unable to use my credit and had to give up buying a house because of it even though I had an approval letter for a home before the identify theft occurred. 

Here are the fraudulent debts : XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX & XXXX OPENED XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX OPENED XX/XX/XXXX Fraudulent Inquiries Made : XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX NA XX/XX/XXXX I have contacted a lawyer to take more action against all the companies involved. All three credit bureaus, the collections agencies for harassment and the loan agency for harassment as well.
