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:
All three credit bureaus are reporting few information on my credit report that are either over 7 years old or incorrect. 

I have written to all three credit bureaus about this and demanded that they provided me with the evidence and supporting documents that they, during their investigation must have asked the credit reporting company. But they ( XXXX, XXXX, Transunion ) have informed me that they have completed their investigation without sending me any documents from the original creditor. But the issues were not corrected. They failed to send me the documents, I have asked to show me that the accounts are reported correctly as they claim. 
For example, XXXX is reporting two accounts ( {$830.00} and {$2400.00} something ). These accounts are reported incorrectly. I have asked them to show me the documents with proof. They have not. 
Similarly, I have an old account ( more than 7 years old ) for the amount of {$84.00}, originally from XXXX XXXX bank. This account is still showing on my report ( all three bureau ). They have not removed it despite my demanding to remove it. 
Then there is a real estate loan account. Multiple banks are showing the same information more than twice. I have asked the three bureaus to correct this error. They have not.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: VA
Product: Credit card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Getting a credit card
Sub-issue: Card opened without my consent or knowledge

Complaint:
I looked at a Capital One Venture credit card. I didn't like the APR, and I never arrived at the approval screen. Thus I was surprised to see that the card had been shipped to me without my consent. 

When I called to ask about this, the agent asked me to " admit '' that I had opened the card. I told her I never saw a button to give my consent. I asked her to close the account, which I told her I particularly wanted to do given the rude way in which she treated me as if I had done something wrong or was on trial. I am concerned that this experience will affect my very good credit score. The CapitalOne Venture card site is very misleading, even for well-informed customers like me.

Despite me proving proof of their negligence, my commands and demands to redress this matter ; Equifax purposefully continued to commit fraud.

Equifax committed aggravated identity theft against me. Their actions put me at risk further of identity theft. Equifax also willing directly violated the XXXX Finance Code, Chapter XXXX, The Consumer Credit Protection Act, The Truth in Lending Act, The Fair Credit Reporting Act and The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, The Consumer Financial Protection Act, The Fair Credit Billing Act, The Dodd-Frank Act, and The Uniform Commercial Code.
