Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
Temporarily lifting a credit freeze with Equifax : We placed credit freezes with XXXX, XXXX and Equifax years back. We now need to lift those credit freezes to apply for a mortgage. Lifting of freezes must happen within hours if requested online or by phone, and within 3 business days after receiving a request by mail. XXXX and XXXX lifted the freezes within hours. Equifax still has not lifted the freeze since mid XXXX. The details are : My account on myequifax.com does not allow me to temporarily lift a freeze. Any Equifax phone number won't give any results since they claim that I do not provide correct information of security questions and that info does not match what they have on file ; the phone call then just ends without having the chance to talk to customer service. I then decided to lift the freeze via regular mail sending in a letter as well as copy of my social security card and drivers license. Letter # XXXX was delivered per XXXX tracking on XX/XX/XXXX ( Equifax had to sign for it ). Letter # XXXX ( this time I included previous addresses, trying to add more information that could be helpful ) was delivered XX/XX/XXXX per XXXX tracking. In the meantime I received one letter from Equifax on XX/XX/XXXX requesting the exact same information I provided in the first two letters. I now sent letter # XXXX with the same information and included their letter in the envelope as requested by them and sent it to the po box that they stated in that letter. Letter # XXXX is expected to be delivered on XX/XX/XXXX. As of today the credit is still frozen per myequifax.com.

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

Complaint:
This is a follow up in Case # XXXX filed with CFPB. While I appreciate the response I received from TransUnion and they implying that the reinvestigation process could take up to 60 days to complete this goes against FTC best practices. However, After reviewing my credit report again with TransUnion I see there has not been any movement in getting these inquiries removed from my file. I am not sure what they plan on doing or how they plan on validating these inquiries, as I speant nearly 3 days caling everyone of them and was told by the potential creditor that they do not show where I applied and if I did I may receive something in the mail with regards to the status of each. What freightens me even more if that My information has been found to be on the DARK WEB as I have gotten several alerts as of late. Which is why I locked all my reports now.

Complaint:
I hope this message reaches the appropriate department. I am writing out of frustration and concern regarding the recent closure of my complaints, indicating that all disputed information on my credit report is correct. I find this conclusion confusing, especially when there are evident discrepancies among the reports provided by the different credit bureaus. 

I am truly exhausted from attempting to articulate my concerns, and it appears that my letters are not being thoroughly reviewed. The inconsistencies among the reports from various credit bureaus are causing immense confusion and frustration on my end. 

I urge you to reevaluate my case with the utmost diligence and attention to detail. I am seeking a swift resolution to address the discrepancies and inaccuracies on my credit report. I believe in the importance of accurate credit reporting, and it is disheartening to experience such challenges in rectifying these issues.
