Consumer complaint received 2024-11-01 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Personal information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint against TransUnion due to negligent practices in handling my credit report, which has led to the inclusion of incorrect names and addresses in my credit file. This lack of control and verification of information constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically under Sections 605, 609, and 604, and negatively impacts my rights as a consumer.

Upon reviewing my credit report, I found that TransUnion included names and addresses that do not belong to me. This erroneous information is creating an incorrect association on my profile, unfairly affecting my credit history by presenting data that does not correspond to my identity and may mislead those reviewing my report.

Specific Areas of Concern Negligent Association of Incorrect Data : TransUnion has linked names and addresses that are not mine, likely due to inadequate controls. This problem affects consumers like myself by providing lenders with inaccurate information.

Failure to Verify and Maintain Accurate Records ( FCRA Section 609 ) : My rights under the FCRA include the assurance of accuracy in my credit file. TransUnions failure to verify and report only correct information infringes upon my rights as a consumer.

Retention of Information without Legitimate Evidence ( FCRA Section 605 ) : TransUnion has also retained unauthorized information, such as employer data, without evidence justifying its inclusion in my file.

Negligent Reporting of Unnecessary Information ( FCRA Section 604 ) : TransUnion continues to retain irrelevant information, such as incorrect phone numbers and personal details, which does not comply with legal requirements.

Request for Intervention and Resolution Given the seriousness and persistence of these issues, I request CFPB intervention to ensure that TransUnion : Strictly complies with the law by removing all incorrect names and addresses that are not verified as belonging to me.

Implements corrective and preventive measures to ensure the accuracy and legality of the information it reports.

Is required to ensure that, in the future, only authorized and legally valid data is maintained in my file, as required by the FCRA.

Thank you for your attention to this complaint. I urge prompt and firm action to enforce FCRA regulations and protect my rights as a consumer. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX : Supporting Documentation

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/year> Subject : Formal Complaint Against Equifax for Failure to Correct Inaccurate Late Payment Reporting. 
To Whom It May Concern : I am filing a formal complaint against Equifax for failing to correct inaccurate information regarding late payments reported on my credit report for account XXXX XXXX XXXX, account number XXXX. Despite multiple requests for correction ( letters dated XX/XX/year> ), my requests have been ignored. This lack of response constitutes a violation of both the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ).

FCRA Violations : Under 15 U.S. Code 1681i, credit reporting agencies are required to ensure the accuracy of information in consumer files. The continued reporting of incorrect late payments on my account is a breach of this legal obligation. Furthermore, according to 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors are mandated to send periodic statements at least 21 days before the payment due date. The inaccurate late payment reporting on this account suggests a failure to comply with this requirement.

TILA Violations : The Truth in Lending Act emphasizes the necessity for accurate and timely disclosures to consumers. The persistent misreporting of late payments on my account has caused undue harm to my creditworthiness, a direct consequence of TILA 's protective intention. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX of Obligations XXXX ( XXXX ) : This act highlights the responsibility of creditors to provide timely statements, thus preventing unfair penalties to consumers. The inaccurate late payment reporting on this account violates this consumer protection, impacting my financial standing unjustly. 
Payment History and Errors Equifax shows an inaccurate 30-day late entry in XXXX, which I have previously disputed. 
Lack of Resolution Since Previous Dispute I have submitted multiple disputes regarding these inaccuracies, yet there has been no corrective action taken by Equifax. This persistent inaction has continued to harm my credit standing and is a violation of both my consumer rights and the relevant federal statutes.

Desired Resolution Immediate Removal : I am formally requesting the immediate removal of the inaccurate late payment notation from my credit report. 
Written Confirmation : Please provide written confirmation of this correction. 
If this matter is not resolved promptly, I will consider escalating my complaint, including potential legal action and further complaints with appropriate regulatory agencies. 
Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year>
