Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Public record information inaccurate
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
TransUnion is violating 15 usc 1681b2 and rule 9037 privacy protection for filings made with courts. They have also violated 15 USC 1681i ( a ) for a failure to conduct a proper investigation. I have tried multiple times to resolve this issue for TransUnion to investigate these 2 bankruptcies. The first letter I sent was for them to re-investigate on XX/XX/XXXX, and verified. However, on XX/XX/XXXX I sent out a follow-up letter requesting the description of the investigation pursuant to 15 USC 1681l ( 7 ). XXXX and TransUnion have both deleted the 2 bankruptcies from my credit report yet TransUnion still hasn't removed it. There is absolutely no way that you can prove to me that this bankruptcy is mine. Rule 9037 Protection for filings made with the court states requires certain personal identifier information to be Redacted from documents filed with the courts. Filing that contains an individual social security number, Taxpayer identification number, date of birth, name or minor, or account number may include : 1. The last 4 of the Social Security Number and Tax Identification Number 2. The year of the individual birth. And the last 4 digits of the financial account number. There is no way you can say with certainty that this is my bankruptcy without this information. This needs to be removed immediately as the rule of 9037 is saying. This information is not permissible. These two bankruptcies need to be deleted from my consumer report for violating 15 USC 1691i failure to conduct a proper investigation purpose. 15 USC 168i ( 7 ) failure to give a description of investigation and rule 9037 privacy protection from the courts.

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Im filing this formal complaint to report a strong likelihood of multiple violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by COMENITY BANK.

COMENITY BANK has engaged in the following unlawful practices : Non-compliance with opt-out requirements ( 15 U.S.C. 6802 ) : This section mandates that financial institutions provide consumers with a clear and conspicuous explanation of their right to opt out of sharing nonpublic personal information with unaffiliated third parties. I have never received such notification from COMENITY BANK, despite having the right to do so for years. This omission constitutes a clear violation of the FCRA. 
reporting inaccurate information ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ) : The FCRA requires credit reporting agencies and information furnishers, like COMENITY BANK, to ensure the accuracy and completeness of consumer information in credit reports. My lack of receiving the opt-out procedures raises concerns that COMENITY BANK might be disclosing inaccurate or incomplete information about my ability to control the sharing of my nonpublic personal information. This potential violation could negatively impact my credit report and limit my access to credit opportunities.

Company: KP ASSET CONSULTING LLC

Complaint narrative:
Was contacted by a company called " KP Consulting '' ( also known as " KP Asset Consulting '' out of New York. They sent me an unsolicited text message, and claimed they wrote me a letter. I have received nothing from them in writing, ever. I am working with a company called Family Credit, who verified with me in writing that in 2023, they attempted to contact the original lender of this debt, XXXX XXXX, who did not respond. It also appears that KP Consulting is not licensed to do business or collections in the State of Indiana. I explained to the VERY aggressive woman that called that I needed proof of the debt in writing. She didn't bother to confirm my address, or do anything further to find out where to send the proof in writing.

Complaint narrative:
To whom it may concern, Im am reaching out because, The Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 US Code 1681 section 602 a states, There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers rights to privacy. Equifax, and XXXX are consumer reporting agencies and I am the consumer. I exercise my right to make certain that my private information isnt shared which is backed by 15 US Code 6801 which states, It is the policy of Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers non public information.

15 US Code 1681 ( e ) reads, Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section 1681 ( c ) of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under 1681 ( b ) of this title. 

Under 15 US Code 1681 ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) Exclusions : Reports containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report ; Reporting Transaction history is illegal.

In addition to that, 15 US Code 1681 ( a ) ( 5 ) says, except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information ; Any adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than 7 years. This account is an adverse item they are reporting again without my permission which is against the law. 

XXXX XXXX is a financial institution by definition under 15 US Code 6801. 15 US Code 1681 section 604 ( a ) section 2, says, in general, subject to subsection c, any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances, and no other : In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. XXXX XXXX, The financial institution does not have my consent to furnish this information and does not have my written consent. All consent to Equifax, XXXX, XXXX XXXX wether it be verbal, non verbal, written, implied, or otherwise is revoked. Under 15 US Code 6802 ( B ) and ( C ) states a financial institution may not disclose non public personal information to a non affiliated third party unless - the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that non-disclosure option. XXXX XXXX never informed me of my right to exercise my non disclosure. 

Equifax and XXXX are not maintaining reasonable procedures. 12 CFR 1016.7 states, A consumer May exercise the right to opt out at any time. I am opting out of your reporting services as of now.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Complaint narrative:
Capital One is charging a {$25.00} late fee EVEN when one makes the payment on the actual due date. 

This is now the 2nd time, I make the payment prior to midnight on the date due and they still have the audacity to keep charging a {$25.00} late payment fee? They refused to credit the late fee because they already did that last month. In XXXX, my uncle had a XXXXXXXX XXXX  and I lost track of making the payment prior to their timestamp and made the payment close to midnight which incurred a late fee on their end. This month, I made the payment at XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX and they still charged me the late fee. I had also submitted my Capital credits in the amount close to {$30.00} which took place on XXXX XXXX and was waiting for that amount to be credited prior to me paying the amount in full ( like I always do ). 

Capital One still charged me the {$25.00} late fee and refused to refund that amount. Again, if I am making the payment in full, prior to XXXX  ( EST ), how can they continue to get away with this? Can you imagine the amount of money they make from this frequent influx of money? 

Please see attached document that shows in the lower right hand corner, the date as XX/XX/2024 timestamp : XXXX. The receipt clearly shows the time but on their end it reads '' tomorrow ''.

CAPITAL ONE also has also violated my rights to privacy under the 1974 privacy act by sharing my personal information with the credit reporting agencies : namely, XXXX and XXXX. CAPITAL ONE has also committed securities fraud by using my personal information and the note attached to the installment agreement, as receivables to put into their trust and continue to make profit by continuously trading those notes on the primary and secondary markets. This is all according to their own company 's 424B prospectus. However, CAPITAL ONE failed to remit the equitable interest to me as a silent investor and bonafide purchaser into their company. Lastly, I sent to CAPITAL ONE a properly indorsed and endorsed note, giving it value, for CAPITAL ONE to satisfy any outstanding financial obligations but remit to me the equity to which I am claiming all rights, titles, and interests and revoking the same from CAPITAL ONE. CAPITAL ONE is also in violation of 15 USC 1692g ( a ) as they have not communicated any debt owed in writing.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
