Company: ULRS, Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/, I returned a rental car to XXXX XXXX XXXX  Upon the return I informed the owner of the rental company about minor scratches on the hood due to vandalism from homeless individuals. She offered me two options of paying her directly with a credit card for the damages or opening a claim with my insurance company. I proceeded with opening the claim with my insurance. While the claim was open, she tried to also charge my credit card for the same amount, which I disputed. As the claim process proceeded, she asked my insurance for XXXX XXXX  that the insurance found baseless due to the nature of the minor scratches and awarded her {$1500.00} ( which is what she quoted me when I had the option to pay or file a claim with the insurance ). She received the check but since XXXX XXXX told her she wouldnt be awarded an additional XXXX XXXX because the scratches didnt warrant that she turned that balance over to United Legal Group Debt Collectors XXXX who has been calling and harassing me for XXXX XXXX  despite me providing documentation of the insurance claim and payout which was opened immediately in XXXX. They have now said I only owe them XXXX XXXX for a copay but nothing is owed because this debt was rectified with my insurance from the beginning. They have fraudulently submitted this to collections and to the credit bureaus to impact my score. They have been rude, condescending and said they will make sure it stays on my credit for 7 years.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PR

Complaint narrative:
During XXXX XXXX  I bought a XXXX XXXX Financing was done through XXXX XXXX. However, the offer provided required direct debit for monthly payments. Debits were to be done at my XXXX XXXX personal account. Therefore, since my XXXX XXXX XXXX account always had enough balance to make this car loan payments, nothing was required from my end for the loan to be paid on time. Nevertheless, since I did not find the corresponding debits of XXXX and XX/XX/ XXXX I called XXXX XXXX XXXX, the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, who explained to me that the loan had not been originated. Hence, he suggested that I pay directly to the dealer until XXXX XXXX could completed the due process, and I did. Since there was no active loan, I gave him a two-month payment in favor of the XXXX XXXX XXXX 

I believe that since XXXXXXXX XXXX had the lowest car loan interest rate at that time, the XXXXXXXX XXXX official in charge of the transaction was too busy at the moment and had to delay the due process. In fact, my credit report shows a credit request from XXXXXXXX XXXX  during XX/XX/2019, which I authorized, and another during XX/XX/, which I did not authorized. Therefore, since the car loan paperwork was done during XXXX XXXX  first payment was due in XX/XX/. Therefore, no payment delays apply. Moreover, I gave a two-month payment to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, hence, there was no payment delayed. In addition, I was never notified by letter or e-mail by XXXX XXXX of the payments delayed, because there was none! There was no active loan. How can I be delayed in a loan that does not exist and has direct debit? It is absurd! It was a direct account debit payment and XXXXXXXX XXXX couldnt proceed accordingly because there was a delay in loan origination. How can I be responsible for XXXXXXXX XXXX  official due process delay? 

You can contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and he will confirm these information.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to you with great urgency and frustration regarding a fraudulent collection account that appears on my credit report, allegedly owned by your agency. Despite previous communications, this matter remains unresolved, and I am now insisting on the immediate deletion of this account from my credit report. 
Account Information : XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX- PLEASE REMOVE!! XXXX have already removed this account from their records. There was an error present & they were able to find it. I'm confused how you've verified it while the other bureaus have removed. Please delete this from my file. It is inaccurate, erroneous, incomplete or unverifiable. 
I have previously disputed the legitimacy of the alleged debt associated with the account mentioned above. I have provided evidence supporting the fact that this account is the result of identity theft and fraud. Despite my efforts, this fraudulent collection account persists on my credit report. 
I am irate and deeply concerned that this matter has not been resolved promptly. The fraudulent nature of this collection account has not been proven, and its presence on my credit report continues to cause significant damage to my creditworthiness.
