Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I discovered that an account reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, appeared on my credit report without my authorization or consent. I have never applied for, opened, or signed any agreement related to this account : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. After noticing this entry, I contacted the company requesting verification and a copy of any signed documentation proving that I authorized or consented to this account. However, the company failed to provide any valid proof or contract. This reporting is inaccurate and misleading, constituting a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) specifically sections 602 ( A ) ( requirement of accuracy and fairness in credit reporting ), 623 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( furnishers duty to report accurate information ), and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( consumers right to dispute unverifiable information ). Because I never authorized this account and no evidence of my consent exists, I consider it a fraudulent or unauthorized account that is harming my creditworthiness and violating my consumer rights.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this formal dispute and legal demand regarding serious violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. ). 
The information being reported by TransUnion in my consumer file contains inaccurate and misleading data that creates confusion as to the validity of the accounts listed below. I did not authorize, permit, or consent to this reporting, nor was I provided any prior notice or opportunity to object, which constitutes a direct violation of the FCRA. 

Despite having submitted a formal dispute with proper documentation on XX/XX/XXXX, TransUnion has failed to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation and continues to publish incomplete and incorrect information. 
This violates multiple provisions of federal law, including : 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( Section 611 ) failure to reasonably reinvestigate disputed information ; 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) furnishing false or inaccurate information ; 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ( Section 605B ) failure to block unverifiable or unauthorized items after dispute. 

The continued reporting of these accounts prevents the accuracy and integrity of my credit profile and misrepresents my true financial history. Courts have confirmed that failing to correct or accurately XXXX disputed accounts violates the FCRA ( XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

This situation represents a direct breach of my consumer rights under federal law and causes ongoing harm to my reputation and creditworthiness.

Company: Klarna AB
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, a XXXX transaction was made through Klarna for a XXXX purchase. On XX/XX/year>, I received an account update through my bank XXXX XXXX XXXX showing duplicate transactions for the same XXXX purchase. I contacted Klarna and spoke to an agent who continued to state that it was an authorization hold and would delete itself in XXXX days. I advised the agent that it was not an authorization hold. I was advised by Klarna agent that there was nothing they could do and I needed to contact my bank. After contacting my bank the transaction in the amount of {$130.00} was credited back to my account. I followed up and XXXX Klarnas side a received notice on my account that the transaction was verified by XXXX and Klarna as a duplicate transaction as of XX/XX/XXXX. The amount was updated to {$12.00} from the initial amount and the refund of {$130.00} was not contested. On XX/XX/year>, my bank account shows that a non-authorized reverse refund payment was taken from Klarna in the amount of {$130.00}. I contacted Klarna submitted screenshots as requested. Also explained that they updated the amount on my account with them. Klarna spoke of guidelines and stated that I am to wait until they investigate the matter. I continued to explain that this is not a current matter but a matter that has already been investigated and clearly proven by my bank, XXXX and themselves as a duplicate transaction and already resolved. I also advised the agents that they had illegally obtained the money and do not have valid proof of payment. Therefore the payment was taken by compromising my bank account and violating privacy, security and their given privileges to obtain funds justly due to them. After XXXX days of no resolution and Klarna agents admitting what is obviously noted on their own platform, they continue to hold my money without valid reason to prove their legal right to have re-withdrawn funds that were investigated and proven not to be owed to them.

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 XXXX 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 XXXX 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.
