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

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX has now made false statements to the CFPB and myself. They lied and said they 'confirmed no negative account information is being reported to the bureaus. ' That is false. I have proof right here. I have a copy of my TransUnion credit report, as of today, that proves the false adverse credit file information is still being reported. This now marks my FOURTH attempt to resolve this issue and I am preparing to file a lawsuit if it does not get corrected within the next 7 business days. I have had it. I am tired of companies thinking they can put whatever they want on my credit report that is completely false, and I am tired of the severely unethical and bias for-profit credit bureaus that allow it and make deceptive statements that the information has been verified as accurate when it absolutely has NOT been. I am not going to tell you again XXXX, get this false information OFF my report and do it NOW. I had a flawless record with your company, you closed my account anyway, and now you are reporting NEW and FALSE information against me that has destroyed my credit score as it is being considered by the bureaus to be 'report of a new bankruptcy ' and I am furious that you lied that no problem exists when I have already proven that it does. Fix it, and stop lying. It is causing me serious duress to have to haggle back and forth about it like its a fish market when I did absolutely nothing wrong to deserve this violation of my consumer rights and defamation in the first place. Take care of it and do not blow me off this time. I mean it. CFPB, do not transfer my complaint somewhere else this time and tell me you do not handle this type of complaint when the evidence is right here that you do because it is featured in all of your drop down menus. It's not my fault there are so many of my creditors, violating my rights with false information, that I have so many open complaints. You should be that much MORE motivated to help me, should you not? I want this addressed. And the fact XXXX made false statements in response to my last complaint, and still ignored my XXXX complaint altogether and said it does not exist. Well I attached a copy right here. So now what? # 1. TransUnion information needs to be corrected including removing the false bankruptcy information that is currently being reported see copy of report for proof. # 2. My entire flawless payment history has been deleted from XXXX, that needs to be corrected. # 3. The 'customer disputes after resolution ' indicator needs to be removed from all three bureaus once those issues have been corrected.

I am extremely devastated, embarrassed and damaged by the shameless actions and decisions that Goldman Sachs Bank USA, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX have made against me and my family. I was discriminated against. I, consumer, beneficiary and natural man was denied an extension of credit when in good faith applied for an extension of credit. I applied to use credit for my personal, family and household use. According to the Equal Credit Opportunity Act it states that it is unlawful for any creditor to discriminate against any applicant with respect to any aspect of a credit transaction- because the applicant has in good faith exercised any right under this chapter. Not only a federally protected consumer was discriminated against, this company violated their fiduciary duties as trustee in which I, the beneficiary sent a notice of breach on XXXX in accordance to the uniform commercial code. I receive no adequate consideration as I provided this company with my trust documentation and all XXXX XXXX evidence to conquer that I am claiming what is owed to me. Goldman Sachs Bank USA and Apple 's deceptive business practices has stressed my family and I and has caused us a great deal of mental anguish in which I needed that credit line to move my family out and Goldmans Sachs Banks shameless decision has left us XXXX. I have proof and certified mail receipt to show that I tried to rectify the matter and multiple calls and this company decided that they should act with unclean hands.
