Consumer complaint received 2023-03-16 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting act XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy case number XXXX XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy case number XXXX all of these companies have violated my rights. 

15 U.S.C. 1681 section 602 A States I have the right to privacy 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 Also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions which i did not give. 

These reporting agencies have continued to defame my character, as well as with their continued identity theft since I have never given written authorizations to share any of my personal information, including bankruptcy to any third party entities. This reporting has caused grave harm not only to my character, by causing humiliation, stress, health issues, problems in my marriage, and paying higher interest rates for insurance, etc. According to to the XXXX District Bankruptcy Court of New York they do not report bankruptcies to any consumer reporting agencies and the information is only available in Pacer. So these unscrupulous consumer reporting agencies go digging for consumers private information just to sell for a profit off of our mis fortunes and hardships, just to keep us a slave to subprime higher interest lending tactics. When i call to have something resolved they act like they cant verify me, and YET they see the information on their end, and they continue to send documents to my home address. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE XXXX XXXX  report submitted on XX/XX/23 case number XXXX DOES NOT HAVE A BANKUPTCY REPORTING. This company has admitted that they found this information on public records and i DID NOT give them permission to submit this information to the credit bureaus. They went digging through public records and allowing Transunion to add this to my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
Experian, Inc and XXXX XXXX XXXX has been sent letters and called numerous times about fraudulent activity that has been listed on my credit report. I have asked for verification paperwork and they will sometimes send stuff and sometimes it's limited.Also they sent paperwork once but could not produce a signature or video or anything to show that I started the accounts. 

The US Government was involved in a big case about my information and a few other people who information was stolen. It included our social security cards, drivers license etc. I even had money come up not going into my accounts due to the fraud situations. They was shopping and everything with my work check. I submitted information to the creditors but they still never investigated the incidents but instead stated it was verified. 

They keep asking for affidavits but if the federal government wasn't able to find the people involved why would I keep doing this. They have violated rules and regulations thereunder, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., and the rules and regulations thereunder, Arkansas General Business Law because they state checks was deposited into my checking account. They are improperly holding me liable for the fraud on an account; failing to delete inaccurate, derogatory information from credit reporting legal obligations and negative reporting. 

I was forced to relocate across the country and was effectively forced out of the mainstream banking system. Because defendants like this and XXXX violated the FCRA and the rules and regulations thereunder, the Arkansas Fair Credit Reporting Act ( Arkansas General Business Law ) ( AR FCRA ), and state common law, by failing to properly reinvestigate my disputes of inaccurate, derogatory information on my report and by misreporting and failing to delete inaccurate information on my report, thus damaging my ability to open a bank account etc.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: AK

Complaint narrative:
We were on a cares act COVID19 forebearance. When it came time to go into repayment, XXXX XXXX mistakenly ( purposefully? ) put our loan into foreclosure status and processed a traditional loan modification which should have never been the case, as we were eligible from the beginning for a COVID19 repayment modification which just tacks on the missed payments to the end of the loan. This action significantly negatively impacted my credit report. I was also forced to provide several personal documents to the mortgage company including my bank statements, paychecks, and a complete hardship explanation which I believe is illegal for them to ask for. We repeatedly received threatening statements that we were due to pay the entire balance of the forbearance payments by XXXX which should have NEVER been the case.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing the accuracy of this charged off account ( XXXX  # XXXX ) reporting inaccurately multiple months after an account was closed. Re-aging a charged off account is an illegal act due to FCRA Section 623 ( 5 ) ( A ). This law states : In general. A person who furnishes information to a consumer reporting agency regarding a delinquent account being placed for collection, charged to profit or loss, or subjected to any similar action shall, not later than 90 days after furnishing the information, notify the agency of the date of delinquency on the account, which shall be the month and year of the commencement of the delinquency on the account that immediately preceded the action.

According to the FCDA section 623, This is illegal. Once an account is closed the clause states that it can only reflect charged off or late UP TO the date that the account was closed. Therefore you are reporting Inaccurate information. Not only are you reporting unlawfully and illegally, you are also tarnishing my report that I will be seeking damages for if this problem isnt fixed. The Bureau needs to provide me with copies of all documentation associated with these public record accounts bearing either a court order to place this information on my report or my authorization of release bearing my signature.

By the provisions of the fair credit reporting act, I demand that this item be investigated and REMOVED from my credit report. 
It is to my understanding that you will recheck these items with the creditor who posted these items. Please send me a copy of my credit report XXXX  # XXXX
