Complaint narrative:
When reviewing my credit report, I found several accounts listed in my name that do not belong to me. According to the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act 611 ( a ) [ 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ], these disputed items must be investigated or deleted from my credit record within 30 days. The items I am disputing must be removed from my credit report as the mere reporting of items prior to debt validation constitutes collection activity. I have contacted the Federal Trade Commission and filed a police report. I am demanding that you remove all inaccurate accounts from my credit profile in the next five ( 5 ) days or I will have no other recourse but to file an injunction against your agency under 617a1 which makes you financially liable for each inaccurate account. Also, under 616 Section A is liability for willful non-compliance, your agency has yet to respond to my questions and statements of the Law.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION 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.

EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION 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!

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against TransUnion for reporting inaccurate, outdated, and unverified derogatory collection accounts on my credit file that are not only misleading but also highly damaging to my financial well-being. The two specific accounts in dispute are : a XXXX XXXX account ( account number XXXX ) showing a balance of {$470.00}, and an XXXX XXXX XXXX account ( account number XXXX ) reporting a balance of {$470.00}. These accounts are being presented as valid debts, yet no documentation has ever been provided to verify the accuracy of these amounts, the validity of the debts themselves, or whether proper procedures under federal law were followed before reporting them. Given the increasing frequency of data breaches nationwide, and the growing vulnerability of consumer information, I have every reason to believe these inaccuracies are the result of unauthorized activity stemming from such a breach. This raises serious compliance concerns under 15 USC 1681e ( b ), which mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy. That standard was clearly not met here.

Company: EdFinancial Services
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I have XXXX loans through Edfinancial from when I attended a university for a single semester. Years later, I started getting hit with late payments on loan repayment with little to no notice. Now, my credit score has significantly dropped just before I was getting ready to get pre approved for a home, now that plan has completely derailed. I had to do extensive investigating and research just to find out I was responsible for this this loan. I have a private student loan that I have been making payments on for last couple years no issues. I thought that was my loan I owed and that was it. Edfinancial has provided me little to no notice about payments I would be responsible for this loan I didnt even realize I had. Then suddenly, my credit score tanked. When I call to inquire about this loan and issue, its next to impossible to talk to a real representative about it and nobody to assist me and answer questions I have. They are ruining my financial planning and next steps in my life Im trying to take. After loopholes I figured out ON MY OWN, I finally now have gotten access to view these loans to find out I have multiple late payments Edfinancial didnt make much an effort to reach out and notify me about.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding the inaccurate reporting of a late payment on my credit report by credit bureaus. The presence of this late payment inaccurately reflects my payment history, as I have consistently paid my bills on time. This discrepancy constitutes a billing error, violating my rights under the Fair Credit Billing Act, 15 USC 1666B.

Company: Zions Debt Holdings
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year>, Zions Debt Holdings began reporting a debt to the credit bureaus under account number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have disputed the accuracy of this account multiple times through TransUnion and requested full validation under my rights granted by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

To date, Zions has never provided any documentation to validate the debtno signed agreement, no itemization, and no proof of ownership. Instead of responding properly, they continue to update the tradeline with changes to the date updated field, which appears to be an intentional effort to mislead the credit reporting system and improperly re-age the debt.

This is a systemic violation of my rights, and I believe they are abusing the reporting process to harm my credit and avoid proper verification.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I recently reviewed my credit reports and was shocked to find a collection account for what is purported to be a Medical/Health Care debt. I am formally disputing this collection, as I do not recognize the debt and have no recollection of ever having this account. Furthermore, I have never received any communicationwhether by phone, text, email, or mailregarding this alleged debt. This includes the Dunning letter that is required to notify a consumer of a collection. The lack of prior notification has raised significant concerns regarding the validity and accuracy of this account. Due to this erroneous reporting, I have encountered difficulties securing credit, which is now directly impacting my ability to obtain a home loan. Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am requesting that you immediately remove this collection from all credit reporting agencies and cease any further collection efforts regarding this disputed debt.
