Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing this letter to dispute the previous investigation conducted by your bureau regarding my account with XXXX XXXX XXXX ACCOUNT # XXXX ACCOUNT # XXXX and ACCOUNT # XXXX. I would like to express my strong disagreement with the results of the investigation and the way it was conducted. 

Under the FCRA law, I have the right to know how the account has been validated, including the name, company, and phone number of the representative from whom the validation was obtained, the last day of delinquency, the last date of activity, and whether the company is properly reporting under my FCRA rights. However, I do not feel that a full investigation was conducted, as I was not provided with this information. 

Furthermore, I would like to bring to your attention that the account in question is being reported as open, which is inaccurate. I do not have an open account with XXXX XXXX XXXX, and I was not provided with an original validation that contained my signature. I believe that this violates my rights under the FCRA law. 

Additionally, I have reason to believe that XXXX XXXX XXXX is actively manipulating the payment history and charging off the account consecutively with some being reported back to current after it was reported closed and charged off, which is a violation of my rights. This action is causing significant harm to my credit score and overall financial health. 

Therefore, I demand that these accounts be removed for these violations. If your bureau can not confirm that every piece of information is 100 % correct, then I ask that you remove it from my credit reporting. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the utmost professionalism and fairness. I look forward to hearing from you soon regarding the resolution of this dispute. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
