Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I opened a credit card account with a {$300.00} limit on XX/XX/XXXX. During the initial months of managing this account, I encountered a temporary financial hardship that led to late payments being reported in XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX, with the worst status marked as 6089 days late. 

Since then, I have taken corrective steps to regain control of my financial obligations and have made consistent, on-time payments from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX, as reflected in the payment history. The account is currently open, in good standing, and marked current, with a reported past due amount of {$82.00}. 

These late payments were isolated incidents during a brief period of financial difficulty and are not indicative of my long-term payment behavior. I have since demonstrated a clear pattern of responsibility and continued engagement with the account.

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.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to have the following information removed from my credit file, the items that I need to have deleted will be attached in a pdf document. I have several accounts that I DID NOT apply for listed on my credit report. My information was exposed in the Equifax Data Breach and as a result someone opened up several fraudulent accounts in my name. I ask that these items be deleted so my credit report will only show accurate information. I reported the theft of my identity to the Federal Trade Commission and have also enclosed copies of the report. According to FCRA 605 B this information must be blocked within 4 days. Equifax has been slow in responding to my request via postal mail so now I'm involving the CFPB. This inaccurate information is causing me lots of stress and discomfort and embarrassment.

The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). 

This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Complaint narrative:
I received a copy of my credit report and upon reviewing it, it states that all 3 credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ) charged off my debt/written it off. By law they are supposed to send me a 1099C where I could write it off as income. I have since than reached out to them and they all have stated the reason why they havent given me a 1099C is because they havent written it off on their taxes. But it states on my credit report that they have written it off. They are reporting it incorrectly. They wrote it off on their taxes as a tax loss. They took a tax break. I need a copy of my 1099C to file and report it correctly to the IRS for tax purposes on my behalf. Under the FCRA I can and will seek legal action in regard to statutory damages. This is considered fraud.
