Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint:
My credit score in Equifax is not reported. 


This is a formal complaint against Equifax. They have repeatedly violated my rights and the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Despite the proof that I've sent to them, they continue reporting inaccurate and incomplete information about me to potential creditors. 

I have been trying to resolve this problem since last year. I am not sure what the problem is, I have sent this company a letter multiple times to dispute this incorrect or incomplete reporting. Every time I log in to my credit monitoring, I do not see my credit score and all of the accounts under Equifax reported. I have attached all of the letters I have sent to this credit bureau as proof that I did what I had to do to fix this issue once and for all because I am trying to get approved for service.

Complaint:
Experian is reporting the account with XXXX  inaccurately on my credit report. Upon reviewing my credit report, I did not recognize this account. I initially sent a request for Experian to validate the account, and send my proof such as a copy of a signed agreement or any other documentation to validate the information being reported was indeed mine or correct. After four different attempts, they have failed to provide me proof of this account. I have disputed this information four times, and have given them warning that if it could not be validated, to remove it from my report, or else I would file a formal complaint. In addition, the information Experian is reporting does not match the information being reported by the other credit agencies. They still have not done anything about this. I sent a dispute to them on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. I gave them ample time and opportunity to resolve this issue before having to take this route of filing a complaint.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
To whom it may concern, I sent a Method of Verification Letter on XXXX XXXX, 2021 by certified mail to TransUnion, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX in order to verify such information that is being reported on my credit reports. They received the letters on XXXX XXXX, 2021 and XXXX XXXX,2021. I received a letter from TransUnion stating they received my letter and provided a break down of the investigation process on XXXX XXXX,2021 as a stall tactic. I received no response from any other bureau. I also have not received any investigation results from TransUnion. It has been over 130 days since my receipt of my first letter sent to each bureau. I have also sent a second letter by mail on XX/XX/2021 as a follow up letter to each credit bureau.Consumers have the right to request a method of verification if they believe the item was not investigated properly. Also According to the FCRA Rules, FCRA 623 ( bX2 ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ), it states that any information can be disputed and MUST be investigated and if you do not investigate AND respond, the CRA must delete the disputed information from its files. The fact that I received no response 130  after the receipt of my certified mail, one can assume that there was no investigation into the matter. I plan to purchase a home later this year and having this alleged bankruptcy on my credit report display as a sign of financial trouble, when this is not the case. I am submitting this complaint due to the lack of investigation into my original Method of Verification Letter. I contacted the courts and they stated they did not provide any information to the bureaus so how was this verified? This is unfair practices by a credit reporting agency with no concern for the credit worthiness of a consumer.

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.
