Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My account was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment to be updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Update the late payments from my consumer reports

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

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. ''

Complaint narrative:
Regarding the Bestbuy ( Citibank ) credit card reward program. Credit card ending with XXXX I am writing to dispute the denial of my {$50.00} reward certificate for the offer period from XX/XX/year> to XX/XX/year>. I enrolled in the program and spent over {$2000.00} outside of Best Buy using my My Best Buy Credit Card.

Specifically, I authorized the following transactions on XX/XX/year>, the final day of the offer period : {$370.00} ( merchant : XXXX XXXX XXXX ) {$250.00}, {$50.00}, {$100.00} ( merchant : XXXX ) All transactions were approved on XX/XX/year>, and I received payment receipts. However, I was informed that these transactions were excluded due to the posting date, which is not explicitly stated in the reward program terms.

The terms of this program do not clearly disclose whether the authorization approval date or the posting date determines eligibility, leading to confusion and potential non-compliance with TILA Regulation Z, which requires transparent disclosures.

I request that you review this matter and credit me with the {$50.00} reward certificate as per the authorization approval date.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt resolution. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
