Complaint narrative:
Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me. I've tried to get clarification from the creditors, but they have blatantly refused to give it to me. I demand that the creditors act immediately and be transparent. The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file!

Complaint narrative:
I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/scrub> 2025, Credit Bureau Assoc of GA received my debt validation request via certified mail. I have the XXXX return receipt confirming delivery. 

As of XX/XX/year>2025, I have received no response or documentation validating the debt. Despite this, the company updated the collection tradeline on my credit report on XX/XX/year>2025. This violates FDCPA 809 ( b ), which states that collection efforts including credit reporting must cease until debt verification is provided. 

Additionally, the companys online payment portal lists a balance over {$2300.00}, while the credit report reflects a balance of only {$1300.00}. This discrepancy violates FDCPA 807 ( 2 ) ( A ), which prohibits misrepresenting the amount owed.

I am requesting that this matter be investigated, the collection account be removed or frozen until proper validation is provided, and that the misleading balance issue be addressed.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute several hard inquiries listed on my credit report that I did not authorize. Upon reviewing my credit file, I noticed multiple inquiries from companies with whom I have never applied for credit or given permission to access my report. 
I have submitted dispute requests and provided documentation to support my claim, but the inquiries remain on my file without resolution. These unauthorized inquiries negatively impact my credit score and raise concerns about potential identity misuse or reporting errors. Despite my follow-ups, the issue has not been appropriately addressed.

As a consumer, I have the right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe to be inaccurate or fraudulent. I am requesting that a full investigation be conducted to determine the origin and legitimacy of these inquiries.
