Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am reporting an account on my TransUnion credit report that is fraudulent and does not belong to me. I informed TransUnion that this account was opened as a result of identity theft and requested its removal. Despite my dispute, TransUnion has refused to delete the account. 

I provided notice that the account is fraudulent, but TransUnion did not properly investigate. Furthermore, a representative claimed they are not receiving complaints from the CFPB, which is highly concerning and potentially a violation of the FCRA and CFPB complaint protocols. 

I am requesting the immediate deletion of this fraudulent account and an investigation into TransUnions refusal to act on a valid identity theft claim and CFPB complaint process. I have attached supporting documentation. 

This account is causing ongoing harm to my credit, and I request immediate resolution. 
I request that this matter be escalated due to potential FCRA violations and the refusal of TransUnion to acknowledge CFPB complaint channels

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( XXXX ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding a deceptive and unfair practice related to my Bank of America account, specifically concerning a negative credit remark for a late payment in XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke with a Bank of America manager who, after reviewing my account history, reassured me in XXXX and white that not only would the late payment fee be reversed, but the negative remark on my credit report would also be completely removed. This conversation was a direct promise that my credit would be cleared of this negative mark. I was recently informed by higher-ups at Bank of America that they have seen the notations in their system confirming this conversation and the promise to remove the negative remark. However, to date, only the late payment fee has been reversed. The negative remark for XX/XX/XXXX remains on my credit report. 

This failure to follow through on a clear promise constitutes a deceptive act or practice under the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 's ( CFPB ) UDAAP regulations. I was given a material representationthe promise of a clean credit reportthat was likely to mislead me. I reasonably relied on this representation, only to find that it was false.

Furthermore, this is an unfair act or practice under UDAAP. The bank 's failure to uphold its promise has caused me substantial injury in the form of a negative credit remark, which affects my creditworthiness. This injury was not reasonably avoidable on my part, as I took the appropriate steps by speaking directly with a bank manager and trusting their explicit reassurance. There are no countervailing benefits to this practice.

I have repeatedly attempted to resolve this matter directly with Bank of America, but the issue remains unresolved. I was even told that the associate " shouldn't have said that, '' but that is not a valid reason to renege on a direct promise that I relied on. 

Therefore, I demand that Bank of America immediately remove the negative remark for XX/XX/XXXX from my credit report with all three major credit bureaus ( Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion ) to rectify this deceptive and unfair practice. 
I trust that you will take this matter seriously and act promptly to correct my credit report.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute fraudulent information I have found on my credit report, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, and to request that such information be blocked or removed immediately. I am attaching a copy of my Identity Theft Report issued by the FTC ( FTC REPORT NUMBER XXXX ) as evidence of my claim. 
According to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, when a consumer submits an identity theft report, credit reporting agencies are required to block any information identified by the consumer as a result of such theft within four ( 4 ) business days.

The following information on my credit report is the result of identity theft and must be blocked : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I respectfully request that this account be immediately blocked from my credit report. This block should remain in effect for a period of one year, after which I may request an extension. During this time, no information may be reported.

I have contacted TRANSUNION multiple times to report these accounts, but I have not received a clear or definitive resolution to help me resolve this situation. This situation is severely affecting me as I am trying to purchase a new home for my children and obtain financial tools to support my economic growth. Having these negative accounts on my credit report has blocked all my opportunities and is causing me personal and financial harm.

These accounts have already been removed and were not verified by other credit agencies, so I do not understand why this agency continues to assert that these accounts belong to me.

I have requested copies of the contracts related to these accounts from the reporting company, and after more than 60 days, I have not received any response. I respectfully request your assistance in removing these accounts immediately.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint against Experian regarding identity theft and inaccurate credit reporting across all three credit bureaus. Attached is an official FTC Identity Theft Report documenting fraudulent activity on the consumers credit file.

The consumer has only one legal name and one verified address, yet the credit files reflect multiple incorrect names and addresses. In addition, there are unauthorized accounts, including auto loans and a utility account, that were fraudulently opened without consent. These are not his debts and must be immediately removed from his credit reports.

Despite attempts to correct these errors through standard dispute channels, the inaccurate data remains. We request that each bureau conduct a full reinvestigation under the FCRA, remove all fraudulent accounts, and correct all personal identifying information.

Supporting documentation is attached, including the FTC Identity Theft Report and a signed statement of identity.
