Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and XXXX XXXX XXXX, I am writing to formally file a complaint against Transunion concerning ongoing inaccuracies in my credit report, which I believe violate several provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, I initiated a dispute regarding incorrect information related to ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. Despite providing supporting documentation that substantiated my claim, Transunion responded in XXXX indicating that they would not remove the disputed entry. This decision raises concerns about the agencys adherence to its responsibilities under Section 607 ( b ) of the FCRA, which mandates that consumer reporting agencies must ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they provide.

In considering this situation, I would like to highlight the legal principle of estoppel. Estoppel prevents a party from asserting a claim or fact that is contrary to a position they have previously taken, particularly if this inconsistency would harm another party who has relied on the original position. In my case, I believe that the actions of Transunion may constitute a form of estoppel, as the agency 's initial acknowledgment of my dispute and the accuracy of my evidence should logically inform their subsequent actions regarding the accuracy of my credit report.

Moreover, I am concerned about my privacy rights under the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C.

552a. The presence of inaccurate information in my credit report not only misrepresents my financial status but also jeopardizes my ability to secure loans or other financial services. I believe that my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692, may also be infringed, as misleading information could lead to negative repercussions in debt collection processes.

Despite my attempts to resolve this issue directly with Transunion through certified Mail, my concerns remain unaddressed. I urge the CFPB to investigate this matter, ensuring that Transunion is held accountable for its obligations under the relevant statutes.

Thank you for your attention to this complaint. I look forward to your response regarding the steps that can be taken to rectify this situation.

I want to know the absolute truth and facts about it, even if it is certified.You need to have a process for reporting which follows the XXXX XXXX data field formatted reporting standard. I don't think your report is accurate because of the claims in this complaint. I don't think your report is accurate. I challenge you to make a document that shows all of the evidence for each claim. The document should be verified as correct, complete, and true. You should be aware that, according to the 2020 CRRG : " ANY DEVIATION OF THESE STANDARDS JEOPARDIZES THE INTEGRITY OF THE DATA ''. The report you sent me does not seem to be accurate. I am not sure if the reporting process was done correctly or if the format is correct. Because of this, I can not say that your claims are accurate. Even if the collection rights are still valid, which is not clear, your claims would not meet the minimum requirements for a legal and ethical report. The below-noted claims are disputed and have not been confirmed as facts. I am requesting that you remove any false accounts from my credit report. I only want factually accurate, verified, and compliant data documented on my credit report.
