I am being harassed regularly concerning a debt that is not mines neither did I authorize the responsible party to use any of my information to acquire this debt.

Complaint narrative:
I had XXXX accounts ( XXXX for credit cards, XXXX and XXXX ) and XXXX for student loan from XXXX. I suspected those accounts were fraudulent since it was not authorized by me. 
Based on a dispute lodged by me thru XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, these XXXX accounts were deleted from my credit score which resulted in a drastic reduction in my score. 
After lodging the complain, I realized that those accounts were opened by my son who happens to have same last name as mine. He was trying to build some credit for himself. 
In view of the fact that deletion of these accounts have reduced my score considerably, I am requesting Transunion to re-instate those accounts as before so that my previous credit score can be restored. It will help me a lot since I am planning to buy a car this month. 
Your kind cooperation and prompt action in this matter will be highly appreciated. 
Regards, XXXX XXXX SSN ending with XXXX

MY BALANCE IN XXXX REMAINED THE SAME AS IN XXXX! MEANWHILE, THEY ISSUED A WARRANT AND A LIEN UNDER FALSE CIRCUMSTANCES AND HAVE ADVERSELY AFFECTED MY CREDIT SCORE. THANK YOU, XXXX. 

The situation has now been resolved. The current balance is {$0.00}, but the dent in my credit score remains.

I have credit monitoring services with several companies to be able to moniter my credit on a daily basis. I received an alert on last week regarding XXXX inquires that had been removed from my report by transunion. One week later Transunion reinserted those inquires and it caused my credit score to drop by XXXX points. I pride myself on maintaining good credit and having an XXXX credit score. I do n't know why Transunion is playing games with my credit report and score. They should not be able to remove and insert items at those items at their will. I would like for you to investigate and remove those items so that I can restore my credit score to what it was, which is XXXX before they played games with my credit report. Thank You.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I have disputed with Transunion and XXXX for an unverified and inaccurate account in regards to an account with XXXX. They both returned verified without proper verifying documents such as a signed contract, ID, SS card, or other concrete verification. They both completed their investigation but failed to see the inaccuracy and inconsistent information of what is being reporting. All XXXX bureaus are reporting different information. I mentioned this in a correspondence with XXXX and again they did not properly investigate. In compliance with the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 8 ) ( D ) I am requesting accurate information be reported and both parties have failed. It is my understanding that Transunion make money for reporting information and the lower my score the more they make. As long as they verified information and the accuracy of it, they can continue to report. Well I have proof that the information is inaccurate and also unverified. XXXX correspondence is contradicting what they are reporting. It also states they verified my identity through an email address and online application. I want my creditworthiness to be restored! They need to report accurate and consistent information. Also completely verify my identity before including this information on my report. Verifying my information with an email address, an online application, and billing statements are not verification. I have not received a thorough investigation from Transunion or documents requested of verification. The documents I received from XXXX are clear that the delinquency dates are not accurate, the amounts paid and received are not accurate, and the identity verification is not accurate. Due to their failure to complete the investigation and report accurate information, I 'm requesting this to be deleted permanently from my file.

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.

Complaint narrative:
I have a loan through Ally Financial. I recently went through the loss of a job so I had requested a deferment for 60 days. That was approved. I followed their instruction for the deferment and paid them {$320.00} on XXXX XXXX. I was to then wait for the paperwork and send it in as soon as I received it. I never received it - I called and they said they would send out again - again, never received it. I called them and they said that they would send it out again. Since there was another payment due in the meantime, I asked how that was going to be handled. They responded that there would be no additional charge and that I would receive my paperwork soon. It has been almost a month. I have called every day, I have got a different story and a different excuse every day regarding this deferment. I am extremely frustrated and I think they have been negligent by not being honest with me. I am concerned because my account says I owe and all I want to do is have this deferment be complete. I finally received paperwork - that was incorrect - they said that I should just sign that one and indicate on it that the amount was incorrect. I scanned it and sent it in ( not thinking it was a good idea to sign an incorrect document ), but who knew when I might get a replacement correct document. I just got off the phone with them now again and they said it is in progress, please wait 24-48 hours. I have been waiting over a month .... ARGH!

Complaint narrative:
This is my last and final demand before I proceed to sue Transunion. They gave me a partial response and told me to give them 60 days to complete their investigation. By law they have to block a fraudulent account if I have provided a police report which I have. I should not have to wait 60 days for them to block the accounts that are fraud. I am a victim of Idenity theft. I have sent letters faxes and online disputes attached were my drivers licesnse utility bills police reports and theft affidatives. They have all this information and still will not block accounts. I made a complaint with Cfpb and transunion lied and stated they have not received anything however the agents claim they have my police report. I am so upset that after waiting 30 days for their investigation to 15 days from my complaint to a whole another 60 days is not right and I am being unfairly treated. I have called Every day since XXXX XXXX trying to get this resolved. I am almost sure they have it in their notes. I have the certified receipt that they received police reports and faxes confirming it went through. So I am asking transunion to block these accounts XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX the judgement is also fraud. They are giving me the runaround and prolonging the issue which has caused our family a great deal of emotional distress since they are reporting this fraudulent information on my report its embarrassing. Its wrong how they are treating me. I ca n't help my idenrity was stolen. So for the 13th time i will load my police report so that transunion can block the accounts next I am contacting the BBB and then my local news station as well as the attorney general.
