Consumer Narrative
On XX/XX/year>, I mailed a formal dispute letter to TransUnion via USPS Certified Mail ( Tracking # XXXX ). This letter included clear documentation to verify my identity and address : a copy of my photo ID, Social Security card, and a recent utility bill. I specifically requested an investigation into inaccuracies on my credit report and corrections to erroneous personal information. USPS tracking confirms that TransUnion received this letter on XX/XX/year>. However, on XX/XX/year>, I received a dismissive response from TransUnion stating : We recently received a request that included your information, but it didn't appear that you or a properly authorized third party sent it to us. We take the privacy and security of your data very seriously, so we won't process requests unless they come directly from you or an authorized third party. This response is both inaccurate and unacceptable. The dispute was submitted directly by me, with complete identity verification and secure delivery. TransUnions refusal to investigate constitutes a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which requires consumer reporting agencies to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation upon receiving a valid dispute. Their failure to act demonstrates willful noncompliance with federal law. Attached are copies of my original dispute letter, USPS proof of delivery, and TransUnions response.
