Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: Halsted Financial Services, LLC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX allegedly owns my debt by XXXX by XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ( no clue what the debt is for ) and repeatedly calls me everyday from spoofed numbers imitating local business numbers like doctors offices or lawyers offices attempting to collect on a debt that I have asked for proof for and no proof has been provided. It has been close to 2 months of them calling me atleast 6 times a day including at night all from different numbers including texting me day and night. I cant answer the phone anymore because I dont know if its a legitimate call or the collection agency spoofing another number. The screenshot I have attached shows calls from a local business called XXXX XXXX and wellness. When I called the business they had no record of me or why they would be calling me so I know the number was spoofed.

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

Complaint narrative:
I am requesting the immediate removal of the unauthorized transactions and incorrect information on my credit report. These errors stem from a data breach that compromised my personal and financial details, a situation that was beyond my control. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues, I am still dealing with the consequences of reporting failures that should have been corrected long ago. 

The fact that these incorrect and unauthorized entries remain on my report, even with clear evidence of a data breach, is completely unacceptable. This mishandling of my information is damaging my credit score, threatening my financial security, and preventing me from accessing important opportunities. I will no longer tolerate this negligence. 

I insist that you conduct an immediate investigation and remove these errors permanently. Any further delays, inaction, or refusal to comply will be seen as a direct violation of my consumer rights. I will pursue all legal remedies available under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and any other relevant laws to hold your company accountable.

State: IL

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.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Experian has repeatedly failed to remove dispute comments from a XXXX  XXXX XXXX account on my credit report even though I am not disputing the account. I have contacted Experian multiple times and specifically instructed them to remove the dispute remarks only, without reinvestigation. Each time an agent ensures the process will be taken care of with 24 - 72 hours. 

Instead, Experian repeatedly updates the account and leaves the dispute comments in place. These remarks are incorrect and are harming my creditworthiness. I need Experian to remove the dispute comments immediately as required under the FCRA. I'm not disputing the account.
