Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because TransUnion is reporting a charge-off account on my credit report that I believe has not been properly verified. I submitted a Section 609 request under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which entitles me to know how the credit reporting agency verified this account and to be provided with the original documentation from the furnisher.

TransUnion has not provided me with any original documentation showing the validity of this account, yet they continue to report it as accurate. Under FCRA 609 ( a ) and 611, the credit reporting agency is required to provide me with the method of verification and furnish the original documentation, or remove the disputed item from my report if they can not verify it. 

I am asking the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to review this matter, as TransUnions reporting of this charge-off without providing proper verification is causing harm to my credit and does not comply with my rights under the FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint against the XXXX major credit XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX ongoing, systemic violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and failure to comply with XXXX XXXX Format and CDIA industry standards. 

Despite submitting multiple disputes concerning inaccurate, unverifiable, and/or outdated negative items on my credit reports, the credit bureaus have consistently responded with vague verified as accurate outcomeswithout producing a single shred of documentary evidence or conducting a lawful investigation as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ).

Instead, they rely on the deeply flawed and automated e-OSCAR system, which merely forwards dispute codes to furnishers and accepts their response without independent verification. This practice has been widely criticized by the CFPB and ruled inadequate in court. 

Violations and Legal Basis : The following violations form the basis of this complaint : 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) Failure to maintain reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) Failure to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ) Furnisher failure to correct or delete disputed information XXXX XXXX and CDIA Guidelines Failure to comply with reporting format and data integrity standards Further, the credit bureaus use of XXXX  has been ruled insufficient in legal precedent : " A credit reporting agency XXXX not rely blindly on the [ furnisher 's ] investigation.

Issue: Repossession — Lender trying to repossess or disable the vehicle
Company: NISSAN MOTOR ACCEPTANCE COMPANY LLC
State: RI

Complaint narrative:
Nissan Motor Acceptance wrongfully repossessed my vehicle on XX/XX/year>. I was told by the recovery company that all I had to do was call Nissan and make a payment and I could retrieve my vehicle. I then called Nissan and spoke to a representative in the recovery department, who told me that in the state of Rhode Island I could only redeem my vehicle and not reinstate my loan. I went to further research these laws and found this to be untrue. I called Nissan several times after that to request my loan documents and the right to cure notice that was sent to me and is required by law. I was also locked out of my online account and had no way to make a payment to cure the default. After several calls, I received an email with a copy of the right to cure notice, which I had never received prior to this. I was told by the representative that the right to cure notice was sent by first class mail, there is no proof that this letter was delivered to me. The document is password protected and I can not view the document. I was told this document was mailed to me on XX/XX/XXXX, which further proves that Nissan wrongfully repossessed my vehicle because the proper amount of time to cure the default would not have been met at that time.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing inaccuracies on my credit report and requesting the immediate removal of specific accounts and items. These inaccuracies include unauthorized negative entries, incorrect addresses, and hard inquiries reported without my consent. These actions violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, which requires consumer reporting agencies to block or delete information reported without written consent. You have failed to ensure maximum possible accuracy, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). The reporting of unauthorized data also breaches 15 U.S.C. 1681b, which governs permissible purposes for obtaining and reporting consumer data. The inaccuracies have caused harm to my creditworthiness, and despite providing documentation, these errors remain uncorrected.

Unauthorized access to my credit report by several companies has directly harmed both my credit and my credit score.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On or about XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, someone unknown to me started using my card for a multitude of services and products I did not buy myself from a number of places where I have never been or used the card. I received a phone call on or about XX/XX/XXXX from the XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX asking me if I had made a number of suspect purchases. I told the person that I had not made any of the charges that she had listed. She said she would proceed with an investigation and also I had the card cancelled at that time with a new card to be issued some time later. I talked to her XXXX - 5 days later and she indicated that there were numerous more charges of a suspicious nature. Some days later, I received a notice from XXXX ( attached with the false billing ) that the investigation was complete and that I was responsible for the charges of {$350.00} because the card was in my possession at the time of the false charges. After receiving this letter, I permanently cancelled my account with XXXX. I do not believe I can be held responsible for somebody using the number to plainly purchase items and services that I would never purchase myself. I had a similar situation a number of years back with XXXX XXXX in which items and services were purchased in places I have never been and never used that card. After their investigation, XXXX XXXX determined that I was not responsible for any of the charges in question. Here we have a credit card company that is very slow to react to criminal activity from the XXXX of XXXX on. Citicard did not protect my security and now wants me to pay for its failure to provide that security. I have covered the cost of the bill that they sent, writing an accompanying letter that it is paid under protest and demanding the return of the {$350.00} that they allege I owe. In that letter, I stated that I was responsible for XXXX charge in the bill, i.e., a charge of {$260.00} at XXXX XXXX in XXXX IL. I will send the list of charges, my letter and their response if I can upload them all within your system 's capacity. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
