Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
The credit bureaus are allowing hard inquiries and hard hits affect my credit score whereas it was at a fair credit score and now at its lowest ever. Before the end of XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2023, my credit score was at XXXX with XXXX, Equifax and slightly low in XXXX XXXX XXXX. Hard inquiries from unknown sources started to hit and attack my credit score and now it's as low as XXXX. I cancelled my credit repair online subscriptions because the money that I was shelling out didn't make any difference. I went through the process of contacting by writing a letter and disputing accounts that were saying inaccurate information. After spending over {$50.00} in both credit monitoring and credit repair companies online that guarantees that results will be reflected after thirty days, now my credit score is as low as it have ever been. I see dealerships that I don't recognize and other companies that have used my social security to affect my credit score and drop it down more than XXXX pts. I even took an unsecured credit card to boost it but while seeking solutions to help increase it is decreasing what little effort that I am trying to do. So what's the use of acting in good faith and follow the steps of improving ones ' credit score but these type of unexplained actions are occurring impacting your credit by more than XXXX points over night. How is that done?

Complaint:
I am not able to access my Equifax credit report and neither is a potential mortgage lender. I called Equifax in early XXXX to try to resolve this issue and was told to fax a copy of my license, a bank statement, and a letter explaining my purpose, which was to lift a freeze on my account. I sent this fax on XX/XX/2021. I called again on XX/XX/2021 because I had not received mail confirmation that the freeze was lifted ( I was told I would receive a paper letter XXXX. The first person I spoke to could not confirm my identity and seemed to struggle with my mailing address. He forwarded me to a second person, who said that the documents I faxed in were not linked in my file and I would need to mail them instead. I have included here a copy of the fax that confirms receipt. Further, I was told my account was frozen because I must have requested a freeze. I have never contacted Equifax before now, either by phone or online and have never requested a freeze. I am concerned about having to call, fax and mail out my SSN multiple times this doesnt seem safe. And I have no confirmation that my information is being received and if it is, that it will resolve whatever problem the company has with my account. I am unable to move forward with the home buying process as long as Equifax holds me here. Thank you for your help resolving this.
