Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint to TransUnion Regarding Inaccurate Reporting of Possible Finance on Credit Report : I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion regarding the inaccurate reporting of Possible Finance on my credit report. I have discovered that the Payment History for this account does not show any late payments, yet the account is being reported as 30 days late. This discrepancy is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ). 
According to the information provided on my credit report, the Possible Finance account is inaccurately reflecting a status of 30 days late. However, there is no derogatory payment history to support this claim. As per the regulations outlined in the FCRA and TILA, an account can not be reported as 30 days late without any substantiated evidence of such a late payment.

This erroneous reporting by TransUnion is not only damaging to my credit score but also constitutes a violation of my rights as a consumer under the FCRA and TILA. It is imperative that this inaccurate information be rectified immediately to ensure the integrity and accuracy of my credit report. 
Therefore, I am formally requesting that TransUnion take immediate action to delete the inaccurate reporting of Possible Finance from my credit report and rectify this error without delay. I expect full compliance with the FCRA and TILA regulations to ensure that my credit report reflects accurate and up-to-date information. 
I trust that TransUnion will investigate this matter promptly and take the necessary steps to resolve this issue in a timely manner. Failure to do so will result in further action being taken to protect my consumer rights.

Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: AR Resources, Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Alleged Violation of 15 USC 1692g - Validation of Debt I am asserting that a debt collection attempt made by AR Resources , Inc breaches my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), particularly under 15 USC 1692g, which mandates the validation of debt.

**Lack of Opportunity to Dispute Debt** Despite being approached by AR Resources , Inc regarding an alleged debt, I lacked prior knowledge of its existence and was not afforded the opportunity to contest it.

**Request for Certified Mail Receipt** Per 15 USC 1692g , debt collectors are obligated to furnish consumers with a written notice within five days of initial contact, outlining debt details and dispute rights. However, no such communication was received. I demand AR Resources , Inc furnish the certified mail receipt, corroborated by my signature, confirming compliance with statutory notification requirements.

**Unlawful Debt Collection Practices in New Jersey** It has come to my attention that AR Resources , Inc lacks authorization to pursue debt collections in New Jersey , my state of residence. Consequently, any pursuit of this alleged debt contravenes state regulations.
