Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CO
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting your free annual credit report

Complaint:
When downloading my first report ( XXXX ), I tried to save, not print, the report, I timed out and had to log back in. Second, third and fourth attempts, without success, I called someone in the universe that connected me to a representative that said I had to subscribe to XXXX in order to save, not print, my reports. Great! free sign up BUT only for XXXX, not Equifax or XXXX. 

Fifth attempt, the portal said I already accessed the reports ( I did not ) and would have to wait 7 days and try again. 

Why? 

I don't understand 1-How do you reach a HUMAN to discuss the current issue? 2-Why can't I save, not print these 60+ pages of each report? 3. It was a miracle I found the CFPB site, by accident, to ask these questions and perhaps by filing a compliant, we can get change ......

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I sent a letter on XX/XX/2022 to the Credit Reporting Agencies requesting that the Credit Bureaus conduct another investigation on my Credit Report and verify the information being reported by the Accounts on my Credit File. I am frustrated and feel there are many errors that are still being reported on my personal Credit File. The Credit Reporting Agencies are required to validate the disputed Accounts under the FCRA Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). It is unacceptable for the Credit Bureaus to continue reporting the disputed accounts without providing me any proof of verification within the time period allowed by law. I am submitting this CFPB complaint to remind the Credit Reporting Agencies to verify the accounts being reported on my Credit report and correct or remove any erroneous accounts from my Credit report XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance Owed : {$12000.00} XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed XXXX {$0.00} XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00}

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

Complaint:
I have sent CONSUMER PORTFOLIO SVC several letters asking for books of accounting, true bill and contract. According to Uniform Commerical Code they are in violation of request for accounting ( UCC 9-210 ). 

CONSUMER PORTFIOLO has reported late payments on my credit report which is also a violation of FCRA because a consumer report does not include report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. 

The charge off that is reporting is a violation of IRS because the IRS clearly states that a charge off is considered as income not debt. Income isn't to be reported on my credit report. Also, charge offs aren't supposed to have a balance reporting as well.
