I have submitted multiple formal dispute letters to TRANSUNION LLC Consumer Dispute Center regarding inaccurate and unverifiable information on my credit report ( see attached copies ). Despite clear legal notice, TRANSUNION LLC Consumer Dispute Center continues to willfully report inaccurate data in violation of FCRA XXXX U.S.C. XXXXe ( b ), XXXXi, and FDCPA XXXXe and XXXXf. I have exhausted all attempts to resolve this matter directly with the credit bureau. I now request the CFPB to investigate and enforce compliance.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX U.S. CXXXX XXXX ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US CXXXX XXXXB since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

To do what is fair to me as a consumer, delete and update my credit report as they are reporting inaccurate information that I have made them aware of but still keep reporting! This has caused me multiple denials and mental anguish that I can't even stand. I will not tolerate this anymore and will seek litigation if this is not handled!

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: United Shore Financial Services, LLC

Complaint narrative:
I had UWM mortgage and they said they sold my mortgage but its still the same company. They just made me reapply for auto pay and provide new proof of insurance. I responded right away but they still added an escrow account. Getting ahold of them is challenging to say the least. Their website doesnt provide a phone number to talk to a live rep and their chat feature says they are not open during the hours they list being open ; whenever you get through the chat disconnects before an agent is assigned. XXXX concerned because when I signed up for auto pay I added an additional principle. I cant tell if some of my money is going to pay the escrow for insurance I already paid, and their insurance arm already acknowledged receiving the proof of insurance. My dashboard still shows I owe for escrow. I wish I had the money to pay off the loan, their incompetency is great and I am sure XXXX not the only frustrated customer. Its almost as if they want people to fall behind on payment intentionally.

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.
