Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: PA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
I have sent in letters regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report. To this day over 60 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like I'm being taken advantage of and being ignored by my disputes. Section 611 ( a ), it is plainly stated that a failure to investigate these items with 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. It has been over 60 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for ligation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax data breach and may have gotten into the hands of the wrong person.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
erroneous and inaccurate information is being reported on my credit reports. I informed the credit bureaus of the problem and sent documentation proving such. The accounts are reporting different information on each of the credit reports for the same account for things such as balance, date open, date closd, high credit, past due amounts etc.,. It is impossible reckless the bureaus to assume for all three variations of the same account to be accurate and allow it to be reported on my credit. Federal law requires that only accurate information be reported, the bureaus have refused to remove these inaccurate accounts.

The Credit bureaus have also not responded to my request with in the 30 day time frame they are given.

State: GA
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is all about making sure credit reporting is fair and accurate. When there are violations under the FCRA, it messes up the banking system, which relies on accurate credit reports. Unfair credit reporting can also shake people 's trust in the system. So, if any of my accounts get reported without my permission, that's basically identity theft, and it's a breach of my privacy since I should have control over what's listed. Luckily, there are laws like 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 that protects me.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for accounts listed without my expressed written consent. These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.

Also, this company violated 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) ( b ) which states that a consumer report does not include any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device. 

An exclusion means that is it not supposed to be on there. Additionally, a credit card is defined in the Truth and Lending Act q5 USC 1602 ( l ) - the term credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining money, property, labor, or services on credit. Any card is referring to the fact that my credit card or social security number in this context was used when I did business, because my social security number was used to extend credit to myself in this transaction.
