Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX OPM data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Complaint:
I sent a letter out on XX/XX/2022 to Equifax. However, its been more than 30 days and the credit bureau failed to send my investigation back. This is not making sense.

Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
Equifax has failed to thoroughly and openly investigate several misleading accounts listed below on my credit report. They have engaged in frivolous and nefarious activity in terms of re-investigating these accounts. I am hereby enlisting the help of the CFPB to hold them accountable and will be sending this complaint also to the FTC and my State Attorney General to resolve these matters expeditiously. I have sent Equifax several challenge letters some of which I attached below. All my letters are in accordance with FCRA guidelines and provide proof to enable Equifax to remove these inaccurate accounts. Sometimes Equifax vaguely " remarks '' some of these accounts without providing me with any actual proof of how they allegedly verified said accounts. This violates several federal laws and is willful violation of the FCRA. Any new or future remarks on any of these accounts will be taken as admission of wrong and liability. I have also sent several direct challenge and dispute letters to the creditors associated with these misleading accounts which I attached below. These creditors have refused to correspond directly or validate these alleged accounts and debts in accordance with the FDCPA. Equifax continues to illegally collude and communicate with these creditors who are also all in violations of my cease-and-desist letters which I sent them directly.

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:
On or around XXXX XXXX I contacted Experian regarding their reporting of the XXXX XXXX XXXX account. Pursuant to 602. Congressional findings and statement of purpose [ 15 U.S.C. 1681 ] ( 3 ) Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit and other information on consumers.

( 4 ) There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumer 's right to privacy.

Experian is not respecting my right to privacy. Experian continues to report information that is excluded from my consumer report. On XX/XX/2023 Experian alleges the investigation is complete and my report was updated however I do not see any update to the report. I hereby request Experian to provide me a description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information being reported by the furnisher. This description shall include and not be limited to the business name and address of any furnisher of the information contacted in connection with such information and the person whom they talked to along with the contact phone number of the individual. 
I have attached supporting documentation that shows XXXX XXXX XXXX states they are required by law to report my experiences and transactions with them however my contract shows NOTHING about reporting late payments to the credit reporting agencies. I have pointed that matter of fact out to Experian yet they are still " verifing '' the information as accurate. 
I never consented nor gave permission and was never afforded an opportunity to opt out to XXXX XXXX Services sharing my information with the credit reporting agencies. 
With evidence attached how can Experian lawfully continue to violate my consumer rights?

Complaint:
Hello Customer Relations, This letter is in reference to a late payment with the account number XXXX Last month XXXX due to extreme financial hardship and medical problems, I became seriously behind on several of my bills. 
While I normally make great effort to honor my debts and fulfill my responsibilities, at the time of the late payment I was simply financially not able to pay my bills. 
I have since gotten back on my feet and brought my account up to date with your company. 
I am now trying to buy a home, however I am having difficulties receiving an affordable rate due to the impact of having a late payment on my credit file. I am hoping that your organization will consider removing this late payment from my credit report as a gesture of goodwill. This kind gesture would sincerely be appreciated and an invaluable gift to my family and I. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/2022, I sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report to this day over 30 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like I'm taken advantage of and being ignored for my disputes. Section 611 ( a ), it is plainly stated that failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report, it has been over 30 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts should be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the XXXX XXXX breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.

Complaint:
I opened a loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. This was reporting to my credit bueuas up untill around XXXX of XXXX and then they suddenly removed it from all of my credit burea reports. I paid the loan off early in XXXX of XXXX as my maturity date wasnt untill XXXX of XXXX. When I went to get another vehicle loan I was advised that it was not showing on my report. I went back and did some research and saw the last time it was report was XXXX of XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX today and they said they would not report it. That they removed alot of loans from the bueas due to covid but i was paying on time and had not requested them to do this. They refused to report my payment history for the last XXXX  years back on my credit report. They said they could send me a paid in full letter but this does not help my credit score and history. They have been negativly impacting me for over 2 years now. The fact that they did this with some clients as they claim not all also makes me feel like they have discriminated on myself as a XXXX man and maybe others. I did not think it was legal for them to do this to some clients and not all. I want this reported on my credit report imideiate so that my score and my overall history refects the payments and efferts i have made.
