Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
When reviewing my credit report, I discovered several hard inquiries that I never authorized. 
These inquiries do not correspond to any applications or credit requests that I made, and I believe they may have resulted from identity theft or misuse of my personal information. 
To protect myself and follow the proper legal process, I filed an FTC Report ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX ) documenting the unauthorized activity. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), once a valid identity-theft report is submitted, the credit bureau is legally required to block and delete any unauthorized information within XXXX ( XXXX ) business days. 
This requirement is clearly established under FCRA Section 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ).

Despite providing my police report and full documentation, the unauthorized hard inquiries remain on my credit file.

Each inquiry represents access to my private credit data without permissible purpose, violating FCRA Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ).

The continued appearance of these inquiries has harmed my credit score and raised concerns about the security of my personal information. 
It is unfair that I should suffer damage to my creditworthiness due to inquiries that I never authorized or initiated. 
I have acted responsibly by filing a police report, gathering proof, and contacting the bureau directly. 
However, no correction has been made, and I am now seeking the CFPBs intervention to ensure compliance with federal law and restoration of my consumer rights.

Company: Westlake Services, LLC
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding my auto loan with Westlake Portfolio Management which was transferred from XXXX XXXX. I was told all the terms transferred accurately, but that has not been the case. Despite multiple attempts to obtain accurate information about my loan, Westlake has failed to provide clarity and resolve discrepancies.

Specifically : I called multiple times requesting my loan contract. It took several attempts before Westlake provided it.

I asked for an itemization of the principal amount still due. A customer support representative stated that extensions had been applied, which supposedly did not affect the maturity date, and that the full amount was due on the alleged maturity date. 

PaymentHistory.pdf shows that Westlake accepted and processed normal installment payments in XX/XX/XXXX, including payments on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, after their claimed maturity date of XX/XX/XXXX. 

The contract that I finally did receive after several attempts shows the original loan terms, which do not reflect any adjustment of the maturity date. 

Westlake has not responded to my multiple written requests for correction, a payment plan, or a settlement. 

Requested Resolution : Correction of the account to reflect the proper application of extensions and accurate maturity date. 

Provision of a detailed itemization of the principal and interest still due. 

Consideration of a payment plan or settlement consistent with the corrected loan terms. 

XXXX that no negative reporting will occur based on the disputed maturity date.

Complaint narrative:
This letter is a formal notice of dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding inaccurately reported late payment dates on the above-referenced account appearing in my credit file. 
The reported derogatory payment data is factually and legally incorrect and constitutes a violation of my rights under multiple federal statutes. 
Creditor Name : [ XXXX ] Account Number : [ XXXX ] Creditor Name : [ XXXX XXXX ] Account Number : [ XXXX ] Creditor Name : [ XXXX ] Account Number : [ XXXX ] FCRA SECTION 602 RIGHT TO PRIVACY ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ) Under the FCRA, I have a right to privacy in the handling and dissemination of my credit information. The credit bureau is not permitted to report data that is inaccurate, unverifiable, or misleading, especially when such reporting creates a false impression of delinquency. 
FCRA SECTION 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) NO WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION GIVEN ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies are prohibited from furnishing account information without the consumers written instructions. I have never given written authorization for the dissemination of false or misleading late payment information.

TILA SECTION 1666b IMPROPER LATE PAYMENT DESIGNATION ( 15 U.S.C. 1666b ) According to the Truth in Lending Act, a creditor may not treat a payment on an open-end credit account as late for any purpose if received by the due date or within the grace period. 
Reporting a late payment that was not legally late is a blatant violation of this federal protection and exposes both the data furnisher and the credit reporting agency to liability under 15 U.S.C.

1681i.
