Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal dispute regarding incorrect information on my credit report provided by TransUnion Consumer Solutions. My credit report contains inaccurate late payment notations for the account XXXX  with account number XXXX, which do not accurately reflect my payment history. 
Issue Details : 1. Reporting Errors : o According to my records, all payments for this account were made on time and as agreed.

o However, the incorrect late payment notations have lowered my credit score, limiting my ability to obtain fair financial terms.

2. Violations of Applicable Laws : o Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i & 1681s-2, credit reports must be accurate and complete. I disputed this error, but no correction has been made.

o Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) : Under 15 U.S.C. 1637 ( b ), creditors must provide accurate and timely billing statements. This reporting error violates that requirement.

o Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) : Under 15 U.S.C. 1666 ( b ), creditors must send billing statements at least 21 days before the due date. This was not done, contributing to the inaccurate reporting.

o Protection Against Non-Payment of Obligations Act ( PAANL ) : Late payment reporting due to administrative or communication errors violates the act and must be corrected.

3. Previous Attempts to Resolve : o I have disputed this directly with TransUnion Consumer Solutions, sending multiple letters requesting a correction.

o To date, no effective action has been taken to correct these errors.

4. Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) Involvement : o Given the lack of response, I have also filed a complaint with the FTC on XX/XX/year> under complaint number XXXX, requesting their intervention in this matter. 
o The failure to properly investigate and correct my dispute violates federal consumer protection laws.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.

Complaint narrative:
This is a Macys American Express Card with a XXXX balance, and a {$2000.00} credit limit. Today I received an email from Macys stating that if I cliked on the offer I would get one year of no interest on the card. So I cliked and I went to XXXX and attempted to purchase on XXXX three times and three times the card was denied.

This is not the first time the Card was denied. When I received the card and activated it, I made one purchase on the card, and then the next purchase was denied at a retail store. I called and their foreign customer service takes way too long to answer the phone, and then they lie and refuse to tell me why the card is denied. So I want someone from Macy 's executive office to call me and explain what is going on before I mail the card back and close the account.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
