Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
These entries are incorrect and do not accurately reflect my actual payment history. I have made multiple attempts to get these discrepancies investigated and corrected, yet no meaningful action has been taken. Despite providing all necessary documentation and following up several times, these errors remain unresolved. This ongoing issue has caused financial stress and has taken a serious toll on my well-being. Dealing with these inaccurate entries has been frustrating and exhausting. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to a credit report that accurately represents my financial history. This includes the prompt correction of outdated or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate action to update or remove these late payment entries, as failing to do so is a direct violation of my rights under federal law. 
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a resolution as soon as possible.

It's been a XXXX  since I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus, yet the incorrect information on my report remains unchanged. I haven't received any updates from them, except for your notice that the company responded to my complaint. How can I be sure they thoroughly looked into the inaccuracies? What measures did they take to confirm the accounts? This whole situation is quite frustrating, particularly since more than XXXX  days have passed since I submitted my complaint.

Enclosed are copies of my dispute letter and all supporting documentation for your review.

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.

State: PR

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute an account that is being reported on my credit report, which constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2. Therefore, I respectfully request that this information be blocked or deleted immediately.

I am enclosing a copy of my Identity Theft Report issued by the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), FTC REPORT NUMBER : XXXX, as supporting evidence for my claim. 

According to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, once a consumer submits an identity theft report, credit reporting agencies are legally required to block any information identified by the consumer as resulting from such identity theft within four ( 4 ) business days. 

The following account is the result of identity theft and must be blocked immediately : XXXX Account Number : XXXX Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1681b states that a credit reporting agency may not include information in a consumers file unless there is a valid authorization or permissible purpose. I never authorized the opening or reporting of this account, and there is no signed contract or consent from me that justifies its inclusion in my credit report. 

Therefore, the continued presence of this account constitutes not only a result of identity theft but also the unauthorized use and disclosure of my personal information, in direct violation of the FCRAs requirements.

In accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 and 1681b, I respectfully request that this account be blocked and deleted immediately from my credit report and that it no longer be reported in any manner.

I have contacted TransUnion on multiple occasions to report this issue, but I have yet to receive a clear or definitive resolution. This situation is causing me serious harm, as I am in the process of purchasing a new home for my children and seeking financial tools to support my economic growth. These negative accounts are blocking my opportunities and causing both personal and financial damage. 

Furthermore, this same account has already been deleted by other credit bureaus, as they were unable to verify it under the procedures required by law. I do not understand why TransUnion continues to report this account. 

I have also requested copies of any contracts related to this account from the company reporting it. After more than 60 days, I have not received a single response. This further supports the fact that there is no verifiable evidence or legal basis for continuing to report this information.

What happened? 

Consumer Reporting Agencies have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit while knowing there is a need to insure they exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a RESPECT for the consumers RIGHT TO PRIVACY. 

The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting, and these unfair credit reporting methods undermine my public confidence which is essential to the banking system. 

I never gave my expressed, written consent for these consumer reporting agencies to report my information, which violated 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( XXXX ) and this leads to an alleged identity theft, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint because there is inaccurate and/or unverifiable information being reported on my credit report by a consumer reporting agency. I recently obtained a copy of my credit report and found XXXX or more accounts that either do not belong to me, are reported inaccurately, or have already been paid in full. 

I submitted a written dispute directly to the credit reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically citing violations of 1681e ( b ) for failing to ensure maximum accuracy, and 1681i for not conducting a reasonable reinvestigation within the XXXX timeframe. 

Despite my demand, the inaccurate information remains on my report, and I have not received sufficient verification or documentation ( such as a signed contract or complete payment history ) to justify the continued reporting of the disputed account. I believe this reflects willful non-compliance with the FCRA and is causing me harm.

Complaint narrative:
As a direct result of a recent data breach, my personally identifiable information was compromised and misused without my knowledge or consent. This led to the appearance of unauthorized accounts, unfamiliar credit inquiries, and inaccurate late payment entries on my credit reportall of which I did not initiate, authorize, or recognize. 

I am formally requesting a comprehensive reinvestigation into these accounts and inquiries under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ), and I ask that all inaccurate, unverifiable, or fraudulent information be permanently removed from my credit file. I have enclosed supporting documentation, including an Identity Theft Report, to assist in resolving this matter.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: T.S. Holdings

Complaint narrative:
Description of the Issue : XXXX XXXX  has charged me {$2900.00}, of which {$2500.00} is disputed. My original lease was a fixed-term contract from XX/XX/XXXX, and scheduled to end on XX/XX/XXXX. However, the company unilaterally extended my lease to XX/XX/XXXX, and subsequently charged me additional fees that I believe are both unjustified and unlawful. 

The disputed amount includes the following : {$1600.00} : XXXX months rent from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, which should not be charged since my lease ended XX/XX/XXXX. 
{$100.00} : Short-term lease fee {$320.00} : Late fee {$120.00} : Court filing fee {$370.00} : Painting fee Total disputed amount : {$2500.00} XXXX attempted to pay the undisputed amount by money order, which my colleague, ( XXXX XXXX deliver it to them on XX/XX/XXXX, and we record the video as proof ) which was received by XXXX. However, they did not deduct this payment from my outstanding balance. I also paid a {$250.00} security deposit. 
After all adjustments, the remaining undisputed balance should be {$63.00}. 

Reason for Dispute : XXXX claims that I failed to give a XXXX written notice before the end of my lease, and that I only notified them orally on XX/XX/XXXX. However, this is inaccurate. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I clearly informed them in writing via email that my employment contract runs from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, and that I will certainly move out by XX/XX/XXXX, the end of my lease. In the call, I asked XXXX, how much I need to pay for extend XXXX to XXXX days. They literally, telling me it's {$100.00} per day. This email served as written notice more than 60 days prior to the lease end date. Because I was literally telling them this is a temporary job, and I don't have income after XX/XX/XXXX. They accepted my application means they knew the contract is short term. Therefore, their claim that I failed to provide adequate notice is unfounded. 

Additionally, the lease was a fixed-term contract from XX/XX/XXXX, to XX/XX/XXXX, not a month-to-month agreement. There is no basis for automatic renewal unless mutually agreed upon. As such, the charges related to XXXX rent and associated penalties are improper. 

I have made multiple efforts to resolve this matter directly, but XXXX has not provided sufficient justification for these charges.
