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

Complaint narrative:
I reviewed my credit file and discovered incorrect and inconsistent reporting for the XXXX XXXX account XXXX. The reported late payments for several months do not align across the three bureaus ( TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX ). For example : In XX/XX/XXXX, TransUnion shows 30 days late, but XXXX and XXXX both report the account as XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, TransUnion and XXXX show 90 days late, but XXXX reports 120 days late. This inconsistent reporting suggests data errors and does not reflect the account 's actual payment status. The current status reflects 120 days past due as of XX/XX/XXXX. However, my account payments were not accurately recorded, and the account should not be reported as severely delinquent. These discrepancies are harmful to my creditworthiness and must be addressed. I have attached a copy of my credit report, along with the specific payment history discrepancies highlighted for your review. Please investigate this matter and provide me with a corrected report or written confirmation of your findings.

Complaint narrative:
RE : Late Payment Improperly Reported- I XXXX XXXX have a RIGHT TO PRIVACY under 15 USC 1681A ( 4 ) as a federally protected consumer and I know my rights presented under the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly outlined within 15 USC 1681. 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 and 15 USC 1681o, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent. I was reviewing my consumer reports and noticed XXXX XXXX XXXX  on my credit report that need be immediately updated to paid as agreed. My Consumer rights have been violated by TransUnion, XXXX, XXXX. TransUnion, XXXX, XXXX has violated my consumer rights and violated federal law. This is the THIRD attempt to notify you of this erroneous error on the part of your agency. This erroneous late payment is affecting my ability to obtain a loan to save my business from crumbling and also blocking me from the housing that I so desperately need for myself and my family. Please update this account to paid as agreed immediately so that I may proceed with my life, or I may be forced to seek legal damages against your agency as I already have sought legal counsel in this more than important matter. Thank you.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024, I mailed a formal dispute letter to Experian via XXXX certified mail ( tracking # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). In this letter, I requested an investigation into accounts with inaccuracies on my credit report, a bankruptcy that is reporting with discrepancies, and unauthorized inquiries that I did not approve. 
To verify my identity, I made sure to include the following documents with my dispute letter : A copy of my government-issued ID, A copy of my Social Security card, Proof of my current address. 
Despite providing all necessary documents required by law to verify my identity, Experian refused to conduct the investigation. On XX/XX/2024, I received XXXX separate emails from Experian. One of the emails requested that I resend the very same documents I had already provided in my original dispute letter ( ID, Social Security card, and proof of address ). Additionally, I received another email from Experian, where they refused to conduct the investigation, stating : " We recently received a request that included your information, but it didn't appear that you or a properly authorized third party sent it to us. We take the privacy and security of your data very seriously, so we won't process requests unless they come directly from you or an authorized third party. '' According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), when a consumer disputes the accuracy or completeness of any item of information in their file, the credit bureau is required to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate. Experians refusal to investigate my dispute, despite having received the required documentation, is a violation of my consumer rights under the FCRA.
