Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
During the period of XX/XX/XXXX through XXXX 2017, Equifax allowed consumer data to be compromised and accessed by unauthorized parties. Due to the security breach, my social security number and other personal financial information have potentially been proliferated into the possession of scammers and criminals. A company whose business is to keep record of your financial history has a duty to safeguard that information on behalf of the persons from whom it is collected. Equifax failed in their responsibility, inevitably causing material financial harm to those effected.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Equifax mishandled my personal information including name, social security number, address, birthdate, driver 's license number, and possibly more. 

They allowed a data breach to occur in XXXX/XXXX 2017, and they confirmed I could be affected on their website, www.equifaxsecurity2017.com.
They have put myself and millions of others at risk of identity theft/fraud due to negligent security protocols in handling consumer information. They are further attempting to capitalize on the situation by signing injured parties they are responsible for up for " trial periods '' of their ID protection services.
The negligent loss of personal information of nearly 200 million consumers is unconscionably unethical, and it is further unreasonable that they are not directly notifying every single person affected by this incident.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
XXXX and XXXX are reporting very different things on my credit report about account XXXX. I have tried in the past to have this corrected and all I get is invoices in the mail from accounts from an address I never lived at. 
I want this account removed from my credit report for inaccurate information, inconsistent information, and unverified information. As you can see, everyone is reporting something different about the same account. All have different open dates, the balance is different on all of them, the report dates are different on all of them, the active dates are different on all of them, and they all show different payment history. How can everyone be reporting something different about the same verified account? They can all be wrong, but they can't all be right!

State: GA
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:
On or around XX/XX/XXXX I contacted all three credit reporting bureaus about the removal of a negative item showing paid as agreed on my credit from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I advised each of them the negative account activity shouldnt be showing if the account is paid as agreed. This is false reporting or double talk. I also raised awareness that just because I dispute old items currently they shouldnt be reporting it like it happened currently as the negative activity happened in XX/XX/XXXX. It was the actual first date of delinquency of this one account. They informed me that the account reported a second delinquency in XX/XX/XXXX and that is the 7yr date they will remove it from. I informed them then that that is wrong. Reporting of a delinquency as I will show you all in the statement disclosure sent with the reports to consumers in the document section. The disclosure specifically stated a delinquent account remains on record for UP to 7yrs of FIRST DELINQUENCY ( XX/XX/XXXX ) not second delinquency. Therefore Im demanding they remove this item from my credit report as it is reporting in noncompliance of the disclosure. They all refuse to let me file a dispute about their wrongful reporting so if they dont remove it Id like to raise the awareness to the FTC of my FCRA rights. This is a violation of my right to have negative items removed in a timely fashion as well as refusal to allow me to file a dispute about it. Not the creditor because theyre information is correct. Im disputed the removal in compliance with the deletion of negative delinquent items. After all if an item is closed and paid as agreed how can it be listed as a negative item and be paid as agreed it dont make sense so clearly its bad reporting on the part of XXXX, Transunion and XXXX. There are laws and I have rights and I ask that this negative paid as agreed XXXX  balance account be removed from my report as well as the other borrower on this account. This account is paid and closed as of XX/XX/XXXX. It is set to be removed up to 7yrs of FIRST delinquency and I ask that it get removed on or before XX/XX/XXXX. I dont pay nothing late and this needs to be fixed. Otherwise Id like it very much that all 3 bureaus be held accountable for unlawful reporting practices by making accounts current thats old when consumers dispute the information and not allowing me to dispute this items removal from my report,

Complaint:
This is XXXX XXXX XXXX submitting yet another CFPB complaint to request to the Credit Bureaus to properly invetigate and correct the dispute account from my Credit Report. The Credit Reporting Agencies continued to report this account as late and claimed that the account is verified but I did not receive any proof of verification or any document for them to claim that the account is investigated and verified. If the Credit Bureaus ' investigation is really conducted at all, they should have sent me any document as proof of verification! Once again, I AM NOT LATE IN PAYING WITH THIS ACCOUNT! I do not believe I am late on the dates this account reports. Also, I have been keeping my own record of payment and the data this account reports do not match with what I have. The 3 credit bureaus must validate these accounts in line with Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). It is not authorized to fail to validate these reporting accounts as unverified information without providing any proof within the period allowed by law. I am urging the Credit Bureaus to please CONDUCT ANOTHER INVESTIGATION AND UPDATE THE PAYMENT STATUS OF THIS ACCOUNT!
