Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I discovered an unauthorized and inaccurate collection account on my credit report from TransUnion Consumer Solutions associated with XXXX account number XXXX. This account does not belong to me, and I have no knowledge of its origin. I formally disputed this account with the credit bureau, requesting verification and removal based on my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Sections 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ), and 623 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ), as well as the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), specifically Sections 809 ( 15 U.S.C. 1692g ) and 807 ( 15 U.S.C. 1692e ). 
Despite my formal dispute and request for a thorough investigation, TransUnion Consumer Solutions has continued to report this account without verifying its accuracy or providing me with documentation supporting its validity. This violates my rights under the FCRA, as credit bureaus are required to conduct a reasonable investigation and must not report inaccurate or unverifiable information. Notably, failure to comply with these requirements has been underscored by precedents such as XXXX XXXX XXXX Mortgage XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
This inaccurate information is damaging my XXXX XXXX XXXXnd affecting my financial standing. I believe that the credit bureaus failure to properly investigate and respond to my dispute is a direct violation of the FCRA, causing me unnecessary harm.

Complaint narrative:
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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
This complaint is submitted under FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) requesting that TransUnion, Experian, and Equifax block from my consumer credit report all information resulting from identity theft and fraud within four ( 4 ) business days of receipt. The disputed information involves a personal credit card account.

These fraudulent accounts have led to multiple unauthorized hard inquiries and false collection entries on my FICO credit report. I have attached both a list of these inquiries and a copy of my consumer credit report reflecting the fraudulent items.

I do not acknowledge or authorize any of the reported accounts, collections, or inquiries. None of them were opened, initiated, or made by me, as they are the direct result of identity theft and fraud. For verification, I have attached a copy of the FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaint No. XXXX, which confirms that these accounts, collections, and inquiries stem from identity theft.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 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 third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 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.
