Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
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:
I am filing a complaint against XXXX for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. 
Despite my submissions, XXXX consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation.

This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Experian actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C.

5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure XXXX complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

Complaint narrative:
IN and around XXXX & XXXX i tried desperately to retrieve the information requested information on a numerous occasion to no avail, Bank of America kept giving me excuses, after a period of time, finally sent me a letter which is attached.

That is when i BEGIN TO inquire concerning the fraud because I had not authorized any one to use my information because I could be liable for any thing that could happen with my name upon it. I have tried everything in my power to rectify this fraud, but to no avail. I found out lately that I could ask for your help with this matter. The bank only sent me a letter that really stated no real information that would be helpful to the Police or investigation into this matter.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint regarding the failure of Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX to properly investigate my disputes related to incorrect negative information on my credit report. Despite multiple attempts to resolve these inaccuracies, the credit bureaus have responded with stall tactics rather than conducting a thorough investigation as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The presence of these inaccurate negative items on my credit report has adversely affected my credit score and my ability to obtain credit. This has caused significant stress and financial hardship.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I contacted the credit reporting agencies ( XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX ) I also connected the creditors directly ( XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX ) I left them know about the inaccurate items on my report. I did not request for the information to be investigated I am asking for it to be deleted since no one has sent me any proof that the items were actually correct. If I was actually late when they reported I was then all of my reports should reflect the exact same information but since it is not. That is considered inaccurate and unfair reporting the information should be deleted since no one has been able to send proof of a notice stating that I was late or that a late payment would be reported to my report. This is causing me great financial distress I would like the credit reporting agencies and the creditors to correct this situation so that my report maybe accurate and fair.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
From my understanding of the FCRA XXXX has to do a reasonable investigation of disputed information on my credit report, and they failed to do so. I saw there is a lawsuit against experian by CFPB about their practices and that they failed to send consumer-initiated complaints and evidence to the furnishers, and they accepted unreliable responses and failed to appropriately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. I have tried several times to reopen the disputes and resubmit documentation, but I was told that is not an option, which is why the website will not let me resubmit. I just want the companies to report my account history accurately. I am not able to access all of my previous disputes or see the status if they are still open. No help from the company.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against XXXX, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where XXXX has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided accounts, as XXXX inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.
