Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX
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: Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone

Complaint:
I submitted my dispute to equifax via the cfpb. They did not respond there but sent me a letter asking me to verify my address, place of work, and ss. Via the mail. The dispute was submitted XX/XX/XXXX. It  was a complaint into Equifax 's miss handling of a complaint that took longer than 30days to respond, yet it is still on my credit report. I can not speak with anyone on the phone cause the system does not recognize me. It feels like this was a malicious attempt to prevent me from communicating with them, when they fail to notify me with in 30 days, and now they dont want to deal with the issue they created. 

I have attached the original disputes, which have the paper trail of how  they handled the dispute originally. Then when brought to thier attention, I filled an additional dispute against Equifax for taking more than 30day, to which the disputed the validity of the dept, instead of what the dispute was actually about, and I have included the letter they sent which contains a typo n my address. So I can not very what they are asking for, cause it's not true. This is what they sent instead of calling me, or actually handling the dispute sent. I did not include the dispute submitted on the XX/XX/XXXX, because it was already a dispute from over 60 days ago that they have yet to properly address. 

They need to own up to thier mistake and remove the item from my credit as well as fix thier system tmsobthat I can reach them on the phone. 

This is absolutely ridiculous how long Equifax is taking to handle something that started over 90 days ago. And now it's like trying to work with children who dont want to do thier chores. Get you act together equifax you cant provide XXXX pore service, and then play games instead if owning up to your mistakes and eating the cost.

Complaint:
I deposited a check on XX/XX/2022. Check was for {$10000.00}. It was from a vehicle sale. It was deposited by a teller at the branch. I received an email and a letter in the mail stating the funds be available on XX/XX/2022. Well on XX/XX/2022 I received notification my account was locked out. I had to go to the branch. I did go in. Talked with a manager there, my account was locked out bc regions couldnt get in touch with XXXXXXXX XXXX to verify the account. The manager called XXXX XXXX  and couldnt get anyone to help. We called the guy to get him to verify the funds, to no avail. So now Im sitting here with {$13000.00} in my account and I cant touch any of my money nor can I use my debit card. I called corporate office and all they say is I have to go back to the branch and let them handle it. They refused to allow me to speak to management or corporate office president. So now Im sitting here without a loaf of bread to feed my son! Nobody can help me. I have spent 6 hours in the phone or in the office trying to fix something XXXX shouldnt have to be doing. Its not my job to verify a check. Thats why I have a bank account.

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: TX
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Getting a credit card
Sub-issue: Application denied

Complaint:
I have a fraud alert on my credit reports due to prior identity theft that requires manual verification of my application submission through a process of calling me at a number listed in the alert to confirm that the application should proceed. This is not a freeze or lock. 

I applied for the new XXXX XXXX through Goldman Sachs.  Almost immediately I received a rejection due to being " unable to verify my ID. '' Typically this results in a " we need more time to evaluate your application, '' followed by a call from an issuer 's fraud department to confirm my ID using their internal verification process, then proceeding to process the application. Goldman Sachs did not attempt to verify my ID and immediately denied the application without following the instructions in the fraud alert. 

I called into XXXX XXXX support, which ultimately ended up in an escalation to Goldman Sachs, who were unable to proceed and could not see the fraud alert on my credit report due to their automated system. Goldman Sachs was also unable to escalate the issue internally, denying that they had a fraud team capable of providing manual verification. 

Worse, the XXXX/Goldman Sachs system publicizes an alternate identity verification process that includes taking a picture of your ID with the device you're applying from - this process was never initiated.

Goldman Sachs advised re-applying, so I did. After a second rejection, I again called Goldman Sachs, and again escalated through four people who were unable to even see the fraud alert, much less process it, and who then suggested that I should remove the fraud alert from my credit reports then re-apply - leaving my accounts unsecured/insecure. 

For an issuer to suggest removing consumer fraud protections from a credit report because their automated system isn't properly built to handle fraud alerts. Past that, they're unwilling to follow established fraud protection procedures and have no manual process in place to validate consumer identity.
