Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations.

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Upon review, I found several inquiries for which the creditors listed have failed to provide verifiable proof of my authorization. They have not produced any written authorization, permissible purpose, or evidence of initiation by me, either verbal or written.

Pursuant to Section 604 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S. Code 1681b, consumer reports may only be accessed under specific circumstances with a legitimate business need in connection with a transaction initiated by the consumer. Furthermore, under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), federal law requires you to verify these inquiries by providing physical evidence, such as the original signed consumer contract.

Additionally, Section 611 ( a ) of the FCRA mandates that inaccurate or unverifiable information must be promptly deleted following a reinvestigation. I demand that these inquiries be deleted immediately, as they can not be verified and negatively affect my ability to obtain credit. 

The following unauthorized inquiries must be verified or removed without delay : XXXX XXXX XXXX Inquired on XX/XX/2023.
