Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Company: Regional Management Corporation
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my outrage and frustration regarding the ongoing identity theft that has severely impacted my life. I have been a victim of identity theft since XXXX, and despite my relentless efforts to address this issue, my situation remains unresolved. Credit accounts have been fraudulently opened in my name, and my personal and financial information has been exploited without my consent. 

Since XX/XX/XXXX, I have filed reports with the major credit bureaus ( XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, with no meaningful resolution or support provided. Additionally, I have engaged in numerous disputes with the affected companies, as well as filed formal complaints with local law enforcement. After months of investigation, I was told to continue filing disputes with the credit bureaus, which I have already done, time and time again. 

The level of negligence, indifference, and lack of action on the part of the credit bureaus and the companies involved is completely unacceptable. I have invested an enormous amount of time and energy into this process, yet nothing has changed. I have been met with delays, dismissals, and outright incompetence at every turn. My financial reputation, creditworthiness, and personal peace of mind have been severely damaged, and I can no longer tolerate the ongoing failure to rectify this situation. 

As a result of this persistent lack of accountability and resolution, I have been forced to take legal action. I am now working with a law firm to pursue a formal lawsuit against the responsible parties for their negligence and failure to address this issue in a timely and responsible manner. This is my final step after exhausting all other avenues, and I expect immediate action from the relevant parties to remedy this situation before the matter proceeds to litigation. 

I demand that the fraudulent accounts in my name be removed immediately from my credit reports, and I request a full and thorough investigation into this matter with clear, documented updates. If this issue is not resolved promptly, I will not hesitate to pursue every legal option available to me. 

This is no longer a matter that I am willing to tolerate. I am prepared to take all necessary legal steps to hold the responsible parties accountable for the damage that has been caused to my financial security and well-being. 

I look forward to your immediate response and action on this matter.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: MOHELA
State: KS

Complaint narrative:
On or about XX/XX/XXXX, MOHELA endorsed and cashed a check for {$2600.00} that should have been applied to my loan account. The check was mailed by employer, the U.S. government, to the correct address for such payments at the time ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MO XXXX ). However, MOHELA has failed to apply those funds to my account. I first called MOHELA about this issue on XX/XX/XXXX. I spoke with a representative who said that they had identified the payment and that it would be applied to my account within a couple weeks. Several calls and several months later, I learned that nobody at MOHELA had submitted a proper research request to have the payment applied. On XX/XX/XXXX, I confirmed that they had opened research request # XXXX. Still, however, the payment has not been applied. In the meantime, I continued making my regular monthly loan payments, and in XX/XX/XXXX my loan account was paid off. This means that MOHELA NOW OWES ME MONEY. They need to apply the {$2600.00} check as of XX/XX/XXXX ; reconcile the loan account ; and refund me my money immediately. 

I previously submitted a complaint to the CFPB about the same issue ( complaint # XXXX ). MOHELA 's response was essentially " we're working on it. '' But they haven't done anything to resolve the problem. They have similarly stonewalled complaints that I've submitted through the XXXX XXXX XXXX, the Department of Education, and even my congressional representative. I'm tired of the lies and simply want my money back. It's absurd for me to have to wait more than a year for them to do their job.

Complaint narrative:
I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized credit inquiries and inaccurate personal information made without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about!

Complaint narrative:
This is my another refilling complaint to the REVVI/XXXX XXXX since it seems that I was never been heard for allowing the fraudulent account and for not taking corrections on my credit report despite the multiple request I sent. I have my dispute letter datedXX/XX/2024, XX/XX/2024,XX/XX/2024 andXX/XX/2024, alongside with this complaint is the identity theft report number XXXX.They allowed the fraudulent account to be reported in my credit file without proper notification. As I checked my credit report the fraudulent account still reflected on my credit report, possibly because my previous dispute letters were not taken seriously. I was expecting that I can count on them to protect my information and to provide accurate credit reports.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

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.
