Complaint:
This is not a regular complaint, as Ive now filled a complaint with the federal trade commission and the XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is becoming extremely unacceptable and I demand these accounts be deleted immediately. Ive sent in multiple letters and even have tried calling an enormous amount of times into the three reporting agencies. TransUnion refuse to abide by the law and Im demanding something be done about this. It has been a very stressful process, their infringing on my right to privacy and has now cost me thousands of dollars. Ive never given any consumer reporting agency the right or ability to furnish ANY information of mine. Please have them delete these accounts as I will be forced to file for litigation due to the damages and stress caused.

Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
XXXX collection is in violation of the " reaging '' laws under FCRA act. They claim my husband and I owe a debt first reported as delinquent on our credit bureau report by them in XX/XX/XXXX. After some research into what the debt was I realized this loan was taken out in XXXX and was sold to another company in the same year. At that time I did not pay Sapphire. This delinquent account never appeared on my credit report from the original lender nor did either of us named on the account get any notices that we were deliquent. This collection agency, I suspect, purchased this alleged debt and reported this as " new debt '' as of XX/XX/XXXX. I would like to know when the original lender reports this alleged debt as first going delinquent since that information was not reported on my credit report by ANY other entity until XX/XX/XXXX and only by this company. I want this removed our credit reports immediately under the FCRA law of " reaging '' that XXXX collections has clearly violated.

State: OH
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Equifax mishandled my information which has led to a breach that puts myself and millions of others at potential risk. I am extremely disappointed with how equifax has handled reporting this breach. Very little was done to notify the public for nearly a month after the breach was detected. I received no email, letter, or phone call and instead had to discover it via social media. 

Going forward equifax should be required to monitor every account and notify victims if any fraud occurs. Credit fraud protection should be mandatory for every account, not an option for us to have deal with. 

This should be rectified firstly by making credit freezing free and refunding everyone who paid for it following this data breach. Requiring a police report is absurd when they clearly know if you were affected.

Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Equifax says that my personal information may have been exposed in a recent cyberattack. This has put me through undue stress in a rush to retrieve credit reports and place fraud alerts. Additionally, the Equifax website where one can check whether their information has been exposed is highly faulty. Many media outlets have reported how the site says that the information for made-up people with made-up social security numbers may have been exposed. This unreliability only worsens the problem of detecting if you 're at risk, as now everyone is in a frenzy and fraud alert and credit report websites are often unavailable because of the extremely heavy load.
