Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX has been Deleted from my XXXX credit report due to company not being able to provide Purchase Agreement & Assignment Contract with wet ink signature binding both parties or 1099-C for cancelation of debt. Despite the Deletion from XXXX XXXX XXXX is still reporting to TransUnion & XXXX inaccurate balance, dates which moves the statute of limitations as well as other inaccurate information. This is a violation & holds grounds for deletion. The FCRA requires that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of the information they report ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). Repeatedly reporting the charge-off each month results in a misleading and inaccurate credit report, which has significantly harmed my credit score. Additionally, the statute of limitations for reporting a charge-off is seven years from the date of the first delinquency that led to the charge-off ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 4 ) ). Continuously reporting this charge-off as a new event each month does not reset the statute of limitations and is improper.Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ), credit reporting agencies are required to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate. Furthermore, Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) requires that any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable must be promptly deleted. Also a 1099-C is required under IRS regulations for the cancellation of debt, and was never produced. These inconsistencies have effected my account severely and needs to be DELETED IMMEDIATELY.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
NAVIENT student loan servicer has been claiming since XXXX  that i was 120 days late for two months, on two different loan. This is false. I was never late. I was on an income based payment plan before having my loans forgiven for being aXXXX % XXXX XXXX veteran. When my loans were paid they were even backdated prior to these alleged late payments but still they remain. I have disputed this every month for 2 years now and have received the exact same form letter answer from NAVIENT And the credit bureaus despite evidence to the contrary would not remove these errors. I have called customer service, emailed the XXXX XXXX and even went so far to email every single high ranking person I could find on their website - and still just stunning silence. I have asked to be furnished with evidence and explanations of their investigation and got nothing. These erroneously reported four late payments of over 120 late days has had a devastating effect. My credit score at XXXX point was XXXX. I could rent anywhere, I couldnt get a job, I had trouble even getting a bank account. I was finally lucky enough to get 2 banks to open an accounts but suddenly these accounts were closed, my money frozen and I couldnt even by food for my XXXX XXXX XXXX. I even remember one representative said to me during a distraught conversation about what to do- they said, you can always go to a food bank and hung up. NAVIENT abused their power and stole years of my life and time with my son. And the credit bureaus are complicit. I also asked them for evidence in every dispute and every call, email, chat and phone call and their response every single time was - NAVIENT CONFIRMS THIS REPORT AS ACCURATE AND NO CHANGES WOLL BE MADE. After 15 years in the XXXX, a devastating injury, forced retirement and all the XXXX I often wonder what my life would look like right now if those 4 lines of code on a stupid credit report had been accurate. Would I be healthy? Would my son have avoided trauma? Would my marriage have not fallen apart? NAVIENT should be held to account for a great deal more than they are and XXXX, XXXX XXXX need to be held accountable as well.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I previously sent a letter to address the errors and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received a response even after 30 days. It seems like my disputes are being overlooked and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since the deadline has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated without delay. If not, I may have to take legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was impacted by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.
