Complaint:
Back in 2019 I lost my personal information at a hotel when I was visiting, which I thought I may have misplaced and/or left at home. Now in 2022 I've noticed a lot of Hard inquires, Negative and positive accounts reporting to my credit report which has never been authorized by me. Im just now starting to learn about credit so I can buy assets to pass them down to generations. I informed all the credit bureaus and they did absolutely nothing to help me because they didn't even do a proper investigation. The credit reporting agency 's verified account by my name, dob and address and reading and understanding the " FCRA '' that is not an proper investigation and no witnesses, neighbors, friends, family, etc. were apart of that investigation. I'm currently on medication because the amount of stress I've been under because of the credit Bureaus who are not willing to do their job as promised. I'm tired and Im at the point i'm hiring legal counsel to bring a suit against XXXX, Equifax and XXXX. Especially considering Equifax had a data breach and they are not doing anything in their power to help me settle this matter in peace. I feel like i'm being discriminated because of my XXXX. Im currently XXXX  with my kids and if I this matter don't get solved within 30 days i'm going to seek legal counsel and hold all parties accountable.
