Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the recent update to my credit report on XX/XX/year>, regarding the XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX account and requesting a re-investigation of all reported details. First, I dispute the balance of {$460.00}, which exceeds the original credit limit of {$300.00}, showing a utilization rate of 156 % despite the account being listed as charged off. This is both inaccurate and misleading. Under FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), credit reporting agencies are required to ensure maximum possible accuracy, and this discrepancy should be corrected or removed. Additionally, I challenge XXXX XXXX 's status as the creditor. I do not acknowledge this debt and request proof of XXXX XXXX  legal right to report this debt, specifically a valid contractual agreement containing my full signature that establishes my obligation to repay the debt. Without such documentation, this reporting violates FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ), which mandates that only accurate and verifiable information can be furnished by a creditor. I also dispute the current payment status, marked as Charge-off with a past due amount of {$460.00}, since this account was closed. No additional payments should be marked as past due, making this reporting inaccurate under FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681i. Furthermore, the worst payment status is marked as Charge-off, but the payment history reflects inconsistencies that violate FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681c. These errors should be corrected or removed. Lastly, I dispute the remarks, stating " Charged off account ; Account closed by credit grantor, '' as they are misleading and should be removed as per FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2. I request a full re-investigation of all account details, including the balance, creditor status, payment status, and remarks. Please provide written confirmation of the results of your investigation, along with a valid contractual agreement containing my full signature if this debt is valid.

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.

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.
