Consumer complaint received 2024-05-15 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: SC

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 each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them. Please see attached file for these items I am complaining.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

Company: American Coradius International LLC
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX of 2024, I was contacted by American Coradius International, LLC via telephone regarding an outstanding XXXX loan debt purportedly owed. Despite repeated attempts over a week, the company persisted in its communication efforts. After speaking with a representative, I explicitly communicated my preference for all discussions about the alleged debt to be conducted through writing and for validation. 

During a particular conversation, a representative perused my professional website, seeking operational details such as business hours and work schedule. The representative stated that he would continue to contact me on my personal and business lines. 

On XX/XX/2024, correspondence was received from ACI indicating the existence of outstanding obligations from a previous XXXX loan XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX had been absent for more than three years despite diligent efforts on my part to establish contact and ascertain the status of my loans, including current balances. 

In response, a formal letter was sent to American Coradius International, LLC, outlining specific items to verify the debt 's authenticity, with documented proof required from the original lender. The letter was mailed on XX/XX/2024 and was received by ACI on XX/XX/2024. Despite my request, ACI persisted in contacting me via telephone. 

A subsequent letter, mailed on XX/XX/2024 and received by ACI on XX/XX/2024, reiterated the demand to cease all telephone communications without the requisite verification documentation. 

Regrettably, despite two formal written requests, American Coradius International, LLC has continued to contact me via telephone and has not provided any of the requested documentation. The company regularly calls from a different VOIP line each time.
