Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX XXXX Phone : XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Department TransUnion Consumer Solutions XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX Subject : Dispute of Charge-Off Entry on My Credit Report Dear TransUnion Dispute Department : I am writing to formally dispute a charge-off entry that appears on my credit report. According to 15 U.S.C. 1681i of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to dispute any inaccurate or incomplete information on my credit report. If the information can not be verified within a reasonable time frame, it must be removed.

The charge-off in question does not accurately reflect my credit history or the status of the account. I am requesting that you investigate and, if necessary, remove this charge-off entry from my credit report unless proper verification is provided.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i, credit reporting agencies are required to investigate any disputed information within 30 days and to provide written confirmation of the results of the investigation. If the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete, it must be corrected or removed. The presence of this charge-off on my credit report is damaging to my creditworthiness and violates my rights under federal law. 

Please investigate this matter and remove the charge-off entry from my credit report if it can not be properly verified. I request a written confirmation once the investigation has been completed and the necessary corrections have been made. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any additional information. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX 15 U.S.C. 1681i Procedure in Case of Disputed Accuracy This section of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) outlines the procedures for disputing inaccurate information on a credit report. It states : When a consumer disputes information on their credit report, the credit reporting agency must investigate the dispute within 30 days. 
The agency must promptly notify the consumer of the results of the investigation. 
If the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete, it must be corrected or removed from the consumers report.

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be 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. 


XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

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!

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2025, Square Inc closed my business account without providing adequate reasoning. They are currently holding my funds in my savings account totaling {$2000.00}. I have reached out to them several times, in many ways and the response remains the same. The funds that they are currently holding were all the funds that my business had to operate with. I've pleaded with them to release these funds, but I was denied. I find it very unethical and a bit sketchy that they would offer me a loan for {$1100.00}, deny my application for said offer, and then close my account. This is the first time that I have ever used this account to save this much money.

Complaint narrative:
I sent a request to each company below requesting a 1099-C. None of them has responded with the information that I requested. Per Transunion, all the accounts just came back verified. I didn't ask them to verify the accounts I asked each company for a 1099-C because each one of them company either wrote the account off or charged the account off meaning that the company wrote the accounts as a lost. meaning I should have received a 1099-C so I can file it as taxable income on my taxes but I didn't get a response to my request. The law clearly states If your debt is forgiven or discharged for less than the full amount owed, the debt is considered canceled for the forgiven or discharged amount that you no longer need to pay.

Complaint narrative:
I previously sent a letter to the Bureaus regarding the inaccuracies and unknown entries on my credit report, but sadly, I haven't received a response even after 30 days. It feels like my concerns are being overlooked, and I'm not being treated fairly. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these issues aren't investigated within 30 days, they should be removed from my credit report without delay. Since that time has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated right away. If this doesn't happen, I may have to consider legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was compromised in the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which adds to my worries about the safety of my personal data.
