Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: IN

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.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Received unsolicited financial product or insurance offers after opting out
Company: SECURITY FINANCE CORP
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
This appears to be an unsolicited attempt to scam me into calling this company so they can try to sell me on some kind of usury financial product. 

On XX/XX/year>, by mail, I received a notice of action on an application ( that I did not submit ) from the Security Finance Corporation of Wisconsin with an address of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, SC XXXX, phone XXXX denying a request for a loan of {$600.00}. My XXXX  score today was XXXX ( with this high score, why would someone need a loan for {$600.00}? Its very clear they did not do a credit check ). I reviewed the requests for reports from XXXX  on my account, the company they said the credit information came from, and there has not been a request from the Security Finance Corporation. 

I am not going to contact this company as I believe they are using this scheme to lure people into useless and costly financial products. My concern is that other people, less financially comfortable, might be concerned about their credit and would contact the Security Finance Corporation of Wisconsin with an address of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, SC XXXX, phone XXXX to ask questions and then be persuaded to apply for one of their usury products.

RE : Formal Dispute of Inaccurate Credit Reporting? Account # XXXX To whom it may concern, I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate and inconsistent information being reported by your bureau regarding my account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Credit Card, account number ending in XXXX. 
According to my records and the creditor? s own response, the information you have on file is materially incorrect and fails to reflect the verified documentation.

Here are the specific inaccuracies : - You report the balance as {$630.00}, however, XXXX XXXX? s statements reflect a different balance of {$570.00} at the time of charge-off. 
- You show the account as charged off with a last active date of XX/XX/year>, but the creditor stated the charge-off date was XX/XX/year>. 
- The high credit is shown as {$0.00}, which contradicts the documented limit and usage history from the creditor. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), you are required to ensure that all information you report is accurate and complete. I am requesting an immediate reinvestigation of this account. If your investigation can not verify each detail exactly as the creditor provided, you must delete the account from my credit report. 
Attached is a copy of the creditors response for your review. Please provide written confirmation once this account has been corrected or deleted. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint because unauthorized hard inquiries were made to my Experian credit report without my knowledge, consent, or approval. These inquiries were not initiated by me and are a result of identity theft. 

I have already taken the appropriate legal steps to document this incident. I obtained and attached an official Identity Theft Report filed through identitytheft.gov, as well as supporting documentation to verify my identity. Despite this, Experian has not removed the fraudulent inquiries from my credit file. 

These inquiries are harming my credit score and misrepresent my credit activity. I am requesting that Experian : 1. Immediately remove the fraudulent hard inquiries from my credit report.

2. Provide written confirmation once the unauthorized items have been removed. 

Attached documents for verification : Identity Theft Report ( from IdentityTheft.gov ) Copy of my valid Social Security Card Utility bill in my name ( proof of address ) Copy of government-issued ID ( e.g., drivers license ) I am a victim of identity theft and am exercising my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I have also contacted Experian directly and have not received appropriate resolution. 

Please ensure this complaint is fully investigated and resolved. 

The unauthorized hard inquiries that I am disputing and requesting removal of are as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX

Issue: Repossession — Deficiency balance after repossession
Company: TOYOTA MOTOR CREDIT CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I submitted a formal written request to Toyota Motor Credit Corporation for a deficiency statement following the repossession of my vehicle. I received no response. 

On XX/XX/year>, I sent a billing error dispute under the Truth in Lending Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1666 ) and cited their failure to provide a post-repossession deficiency notice as required under UCC 9-616 and applicable law. 

To this day, I have not received any documentation showing the date of the sale, the amount the vehicle was sold for, how that amount was applied to the account, or the calculation of any alleged deficiency balance. Despite this, Toyota Motor Credit has continued to attempt to collect the alleged balance and may be reporting it negatively to the credit bureaus without properly responding to my dispute.

I am requesting the CFPB to : Enforce my right to receive a full deficiency explanation and accounting ; Require Toyota to suspend collection efforts and credit reporting until they comply ; Investigate violations of TILA, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and UCC repossession laws.
