Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I hope you're doing well. I've run into a bit of a problem. While going through my credit report, I noticed some things that don't seem quite right, and it appears my identity have been stolen online. My nephew, who's studying XXXX XXXX, helped me out by finding a way to check if my XXXX emails were involved in this breach. To my surprise, it turns out that 2 out of 3 of my emails contain a lot of my sensitive and personal information. I want to emphasize that I'm not the one behind these inquiries. It would mean a lot to me if you could assist in removing the following from my credit report. these are the inquiries : XXXXXXXX XXXX Date of inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date of inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date of inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date of inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date of inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX  Date of inquiry : XXXX

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.

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Product: Debt collection — Rental debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Rowland Avenue Management, Inc. A/KA Columbia Debt Recovery, LLC d/b/a Genesis
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I moved out of an apartment, and 2 years later started receiving calls and emails from this company claiming I owed {$10000.00} for accelerated rent after I moved out of the apartment. 

This is not true, and is illegal. I gave the apartment manager the required notice and was told I would not pay any additional fees because someone else would be occupying the apartment shortly after I moved out. New tenants did move into the apartment only 10 days after we moved out, thus ending the lease agreement. 

So this company is attempting to collect 6 months rent for an apartment that was already being rented out. This is not legal and is harassment. I attempted to explain this to the debt collection agency but they told me it was up to me to provide the 'burden of proof '. 

It is the responsibility of the debt collection agency to make sure that the debt they are attempting to collect is both legitimate and legal. They could easily obtain this information by a simple phone call. 

This collection has already appeared on my credit report and is negatively affecting my credit score. Attempting to resolve it has taken time away from my work and family. I demand that this be immediately withdrawn and the company be more diligent in the future to make sure that they are operating according to the law.
