Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I inquired about a potential loan from XXXX XXXX. I filled out the application online but didn't finish it. A lady named XXXX called me to see if I wanted to process and complete the loan that I needed to provide certain documents. I called her back and let her know that I didn't want the loan and to not process it. However the people at XXXX XXXX has called me numerous time a day and left voicemail since XX/XX/XXXX even though I called and told them I do not want the loan and to not process it. XXXX called again today XX/XX/XXXX to let me know that she ran my credit anyway and to see if I wanted the loan now since my credit was ran. I told her that I cancelled the process and I do not want it. She then mentioned again that my credit was ran and to see I wanted it or she would deny it.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am aware that, in spite of the precise information customers have provided, you have been using pre-written standard form letters in your responses to a large number of disputes, complaints, and challenges. I am fully aware that this is illegal because every customer complaint needs to be considered on its own merits and handled accordingly. 

My letters have written and generated using accessible software that is available to everyone. If you choose not to process or address my letters, you are violating 15 U.S. Code 5 1681i. And it is against the law to delay the processing of letters from consumers based on the assumption that assistance from a third party may be available. This does not qualify as a legal exception. I am the sole author of any letters bearing my name, or they have been written by my advisors with my complete knowledge and consent. I am aware that you can postpone answering consumer letters without having to ask for a Power of Attorney. I will view your failure to respond to my correspondence in a timely manner as a willful disregard for my rights as a customer. I will be forced to get in touch with my lawyer and take legal action in such a situation. 

According to the FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( l ) and the accepted STANDARD of Metro 2 data fild reporting, I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is not correct. It is essential that all data included in a consumer 's file is properly documented and validated before it is made available for use by creditors. Therefore, I take this matter seriously. The allegations of delinquency and derogatory information against me are entirely false, I won't stand for any misinformation being associated with my name and fiancial history and I am determined to FIGHT back with ALL my strength! The accuracy of your credit report is crucial. The allegations listed do not meet the federal or state requirements for reporting and can not be substantiated. I challenge these claims due to their failure to comply with basic reporting standards, which would provide me with greater confidence in the accuracy of the information presented. It is your responsibility to maintain and report data with complete accuracy and compliance. You must not report any claims that you know do not meet regulatory requirements. It is crucial that we ensure all claims are accurate and reported in the appropriate format as mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and reporting standards such as METRO 2. I kindly request that you handle this matter with utmost care and diligence.
