Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
My name is XXXX XXXX, SSN : XXXX, DOB : XX/XX/XXXX, address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXX XXXX GA XXXX. I am disputing inaccurate reporting by XXXX  regarding the following account : Creditor : XXXX XXXX Bank XXXX Account # : XXXX The account is being reported inaccurately and inconsistently. It is shown as 60 days past due while at the same time reported as Closed/Current with a {$0.00} balance owed. A closed account with a XXXX balance can not simultaneously be delinquent. The report also shows a Last Payment : XX/XX/XXXX despite the account being marked closed and paid in full. This contradictory and misleading reporting violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act : FCRA 607 ( b ) : Requires credit bureaus to ensure maximum possible accuracy.

FCRA 602 ( a ) : Prohibits unfair and misleading credit reporting practices.

FCRA 611 : Requires proper reinvestigation of disputed information.

Requested Resolution : I demand this account be permanently deleted from my credit report. Merely updating the account is not acceptable because the contradictions prove the data is unreliable and unverifiable. I am requesting full removal of the XXXX XXXX Bank XXXX tradeline from my XXXX  report. 

Evidence Submitted : Screenshots of the reports showing contradictions, are attached
