Complaint narrative:
TransUnion 's Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act - Urgent Assistance Needed Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally request your assistance in addressing an ongoing issue with TransUnion, who I believe has repeatedly violated my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

On three separate occasions, I have disputed incorrect XXXX information listed on my credit report, and each time, TransUnion has failed to conduct a proper investigation. 

The details are as follows : - XXXX : I submitted my first dispute regarding the incorrect XXXX  information. TransUnion claimed to have investigated the issue, but the record remained unchanged. 

- XXXX  : I filed another dispute, and on - XXXX than XXXX hours laterI received an email stating that they had again investigated the matter and the record remained unchanged. 

Given the rapid response, it is clear to me that they simply reused the results from the previous dispute without performing a legitimate investigation. 

- XXXX : I made a third attempt to dispute the XXXX record. 

On XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX I received yet another email indicating that TransUnion investigated the public record and found no changes. 

I requested in writing that TransUnion provide me with their method and procedures for investigating the dispute, but they have failed to respond appropriately. As of now, they have not provided any proof of proper investigation or compliance with the law. I am left with an incorrect XXXX record on my credit report that is not mine, and TransUnion is continuing to disregard my rights. 

The XXXX  record in question belongs to my father, who has a similar Social Security number and previously lived at my address. I have never filed for XXXX, yet TransUnion refuses to correct this mistake. 

I am seeking your help in documenting this neglect and holding TransUnion accountable for their failure to comply with FCRA. If they do not remove this incorrect public record, I plan to take legal action. 

Please help me get the relief I am entitled to. TransUnion 's actions are not only irresponsible but deeply distressing, as they are profiting at the expense of consumers like me. 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to your guidance and support. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: OneMain Finance Corporation
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I am filing a formal complaint regarding an unauthorized hard inquiry from OneMain Financial that appeared on my XXXX credit report on XX/XX/XXXX. 

I initially disputed this inquiry directly with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. Despite providing all necessary information, including proof that I did not authorize or initiate any application with OneMain Financial, XXXX has failed to remove the inquiry or provide a satisfactory resolution. 

Details of the Complaint : Company involved : OneMain Financial Inquiry date : XX/XX/XXXX Credit Bureau : XXXX Nature of the complaint : Unauthorized hard inquiry I did not apply for any credit or loan with OneMain Financial on or around the mentioned date, nor did I give permission for them to access my credit report.

The inquiry is negatively affecting my credit score, and I believe it is a violation of my consumer rights. 15 U.S. Code 1681i I am requesting that the CFPB assist me in getting this unauthorized inquiry removed from my credit report and ensuring that my credit score is restored. 

Thank you for your assistance in resolving this issue promptly.
