Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within XXXX business days of you receiving this complaint. 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 XXXX XXXX  credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to XXXX you an additional XXXX  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.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am filing this formal complaint regarding multiple inaccurate and unverifiable accounts being reported on my credit file. These accounts are severely damaging my creditworthiness and appear to be in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., as well as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus regulations regarding accurate consumer reporting. 

The following accounts are in dispute : XXXX XXXX ( Acct : XXXX ) Reported as Charge-Off with balance {$980.00}, opened XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX ( Acct : XXXX ) Reported as Charge-Off with balance {$3300.00}, opened XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX/DOFED ( Multiple Accounts XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) All showing Late Payments from XXXX through XXXX. 

XXXX ( Acct : XXXX ) Reported as Collection with balance {$820.00}, opened XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX ( Acct : XXXXXXXX XXXX ) Reported as Collection with balance {$600.00}, opened XX/XX/XXXX. 

Grounds for Complaint : Inaccurate Reporting : Several accounts list balances, statuses, and dates that appear inconsistent and/or unverifiable. For example, the XXXX account is dated XXXX, which is a clear reporting error since that date is in the future. 

Unverified Information : Under FCRA 609 and 611, I have the right to demand verification of any and all reported information. To date, no original signed contracts, account-level documentation, or legally sufficient verification has been provided. 

Obsolete & Harmful Data : Some XXXX accounts date back as early as XXXX. Negative late payment histories of this age should not be repeatedly damaging my credit without proper and verifiable substantiation. 

Failure of Maximum Possible Accuracy : FCRA 607 ( b ) requires furnishers and credit bureaus to ensure maximum possible accuracy. The presence of duplicate late payments, incorrect open dates, and future-dated collections violates this requirement.

Requested Resolution : Immediately investigate these accounts in compliance with FCRA 611 ( a ).

Provide full verification, including original signed agreements and complete payment histories. 

Delete any accounts or negative marks that can not be 100 % verified. 

Ensure all reporting moving forward is accurate, complete, and in compliance with federal law.

Company: NISSAN MOTOR ACCEPTANCE COMPANY LLC
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I purchased a XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX with approximately XXXX miles. The vehicle was sold to me by XXXX XXXX ( dealer ), and I financed through XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

Since purchase, I have experienced ongoing and escalating problems : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX multiple service visits due to engine-related issues. 

XX/XX/XXXX routine oil change completed. 

XX/XX/XXXX the vehicle became completely inoperable while driving on the highway. It suddenly lost acceleration and illuminated every dashboard warning light. 

Diagnostics recorded XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and XXXX ( Intake Camshaft Position Timing/Over-XXXX XXXX XXXX  ). I later confirmed that this XXXX has an open engine safety recall dating back to XXXX that had never been addressed. 

I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX directly. I was eventually contacted by a regional manager, but she was not understanding, offered no immediate solution, and left me without transportation or a remedy. Despite the fact that this is a manufacturer safety recall, XXXX has failed to act with urgency to ensure my vehicle is safe and operable. 

At present, my car is inoperable, the recall is still unresolved, and I am left without assistance. This demonstrates a lack of accountability on Nissans part to correct a serious safety issue that has been documented for years.
