Complaint narrative:
Account number XXXX They repossessed my vehicle without first providing me with a required Notice of Default or Right to Cure, violating my state 's consumer protection laws. After repossession, I was never given a Notice of Sale or a Deficiency Balance Notice, which are required under UCC 9-611 and 9-614.

This failure deprived me of my right to redeem the vehicle or understand the amount allegedly owed. The account is also being reported to the credit bureaus inaccurately and without proper documentation, violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ).

I am demanding a full investigation and the immediate removal of this account from all credit reports due to these violations and failure to follow lawful procedures.

Complaint narrative:
I recently discovered that TransUnion is reporting inaccurate and unverifiable information on my credit report. 

Unauthorized Inquiry My file shows a credit inquiry from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) dated XX/XX/year> that I did not authorize. I never applied for credit with XXXX XXXX, nor did I provide consent for this inquiry. This inquiry was made without a permissible purpose under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 1681b ) and should not appear on my report.

Inaccurate Late Payment Reporting TransUnion is also reporting late payment entries for an account with XXXX XXXX  ( Account No. XXXX ). These entries are inaccurate, unverifiable, and misleading. No billing statements, posting records, or timestamped proof of delinquency have been provided. In fact, these alleged late payments were reported during a grace period, which violates the FCRAs maximum accuracy standard ( 1681e ( b ) ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( 1666c ). 

In addition, TransUnion recently experienced a data breach in XX/XX/year> that compromised over XXXX XXXX consumers personal information, including Social Security numbers and dates of birth. This breach raises serious concerns about the reliability, accuracy, and security of the data being reported in my file. 

I am not claiming identity theft, but I am disputing this information because it is inaccurate, unverifiable, and reported without proper legal authorization.

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because I am being pursued for debt collection accounts that do not belong to me. Several years ago, I was the victim of identity theft, and as a result, fraudulent accounts were opened in my name without my knowledge or authorization. These accounts have since been reported to debt collectors, who are now attempting to collect on balances that I did not incur and do not owe. I have disputed these debts directly with the collectors and the credit bureaus, making clear that 1 am not responsible for them. Despite my disputes and the fact that these debts stem from identity theft, collection activity has continued, causing harm to my credit, financial stability, and peace of mind. I am requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that these fraudulent debts are removed, and that the XXXXollectors cease all further collection efforts against me. I can provide supporting documentation, including my prior identity theft report, correspondence with collectors, and evidence of my disputes, to verify that 1 am not liable for these accounts.

I terminated my lease/contract on XXXX [ XXXX ], 2025 due to serious water leakage in the apartment, which made the unit uninhabitable. This early termination was formally communicated through my attorney. 

Despite this, I received demands for payment from the collection agency, claiming I owe money after the contract ended. I do not owe this debt, as the lease was legally terminated and all obligations were settled according to the agreement. 

I am requesting CFPB to investigate this improper debt collection and instruct the agency to cease all collection attempts related to this disputed debt.
