Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Regarding Improper Reinsertion of Deleted Account XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Dear CFPB Representatives, I am writing to file a formal complaint against TRANSUNION for the improper reinsertion of a previously deleted account into my credit report. The account in question is XXXX XXXX XXXX, which was removed following a successful dispute and has now been reinserted without complying with the requirements set forth under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Details of the Violation : 1. Failure to Provide Required Notification : Under FCRA Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ), credit bureaus are required to notify me in writing within five business days of reinserting any previously deleted account. I have not received any such notification regarding this reinsertion. 2. Lack of Verifiable Documentation : The FCRA also mandates that any reinsertion must be supported by verifiable documentation from the information provider. To date, no such documentation has been provided to me. 3. Violation of Data Accuracy Requirements : Under FCRA Section 623 ( a ), information furnishers are required to ensure that all reported data is accurate and complete. In this case, the information appears to have been reinserted without proper validation or correction. XXXX. Failure to Meet Permissible Purpose Requirements : Under FCRA Section 604, all information included in a credit report must meet a permissible purpose, as well as be valid and relevant. The reinsertion of this account does not comply with these provisions. 5. Lack of Transparency : Under FCRA Section 609 ( a ), I am entitled to receive all information used to justify the reinsertion, including details of the source that provided the information and any proof of validation. This information has not been disclosed to me. Personal Impact : The reinsertion of this account has negatively affected my credit report, lowering my credit score and limiting my ability to access financial products. Additionally, this situation has caused undue stress and inconvenience due to TRANSUNION failure to comply with the law. Requested Action by the CFPB : XXXX. Investigate the improper reinsertion of the account XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX. Require TRANSUNION to immediately and permanently delete the account from my credit report. XXXX. Ensure strict compliance with the FCRA, including the obligation to notify and provide verifiable documentation before any future reinsertion. 4. Take corrective actions against TRANSUNION to prevent such occurrences in the future. I have attached copies of relevant documents, including : A copy of my current credit report showing the reinserted account. Previous correspondence related to the dispute of this account. Evidence that the account was previously deleted. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to your prompt response and resolution. I am available to provide any additional information needed during your investigation. Sincerely : XXXX XXXX.
