Complaint narrative:
15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) clearly states that transactions between the consumer and the Person/Corporation making the report is NOT included on the consumer reports. Yet XXXX is reporting this information.. The reporting of excluded information pursuant to 15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) on a consumer report is a clear violation of Metro2 compliance. Provide me with the Metro2 compliance disclosure on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency. I need the transactions reporting as late, collection/charge-off status and any other derogatory information deleted from my consumer reports effective immediately. Before you think to reply that this account has been " validated ', let 's be clear that I am not asking you to validate or verify anything. So please do not respond by telling me that as a tactic to waste my valuable time. Some of the negative accounts have been placed in Collection/Charge-Off Status WITHOUT mailing me a copy of IRS form XXXX Cancellation of Debt. XXXX and the creditors reporting collections/Charge-Offs, late payments/other derogatory information in my consumer reports are in violation of 26 USC ss 6050P Returns Relating to the Cancellation of Indebtedness By Certain Entities. If this derogatory account information is not deleted from my consumer reports within 30 days, I will be forced to officially file IRS form XXXX : Information Referral AND IRS form XXXX : Application For Award For Original Information Overview with the Internal Revenue Service against ALL entities involved.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), you are obligated to conduct a thorough investigation and provide a response within 30 days. However, I allowed an additional 30 days for the investigation, making the extended compliance timeline a generous 60 days. Shockingly, 60 days have now passed, and there is still no response from your bureau or resolution of this matter. It is utterly unacceptable that, despite the passage of an extended compliance timeline, no resolution has been reached, and the stain of these fraudulent accounts persists. I was the victim and Im not sure why the CRA is not complying with the law. The other bureaus have followed suit. Im very confused why this one seems to ignore my requests. I have noted that other credit bureaus have taken corrective action and deleted the fraudulent accounts from my credit report. However, your bureau remains obstinate in its refusal to rectify this situation. This inconsistency is not only baffling but also raises serious questions about the competence and integrity of your investigative processes. 
XXXX XXXX PLEASE DELETE!! ! XXXX AND 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 demand an immediate and thorough re-evaluation of my dispute, with a focus on expediting the removal of the fraudulent accounts from my credit report. This is not a request ; it is a demand for the immediate correction of this gross injustice. I expect your bureau to comply with the FCRA and take swift action to rectify the errors that continue to tarnish my credit history.
