Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA
Product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of my credit report
Sub-issue: Report shared with employer w/o consent

Complaint:
On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I went into XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX in the intention of buying a car. I bought a XXXX XXXX XXXX, signed all the appropriate papers needed to complete the process. I signed the contract, left and was told on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX that I had to call XXXX and clear my fraud alert. I have a fraud alert because I am going through identity theft. I called XXXX the next day and was told by XXXX to go online and continue the process there. I did as I was told but it was not fast enough for XXXX XXXX, which to my understanding XXXX was not able to get funding for the contract. They kept calling demanding, pressuring and threatening me to taking my car if I did n't do my part. I stated that it took 5-7 business days for that process to go through. I was surprised that they let me go with a new car without doing the required process for approval. 
After verbally being told I was going to get the car taken away, I had had it with the company. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I told XXXX XXXX that I wanted nothing to do with the company. I told them that I was going to return the car and wanted an unwinding paper stating in the documentation about everything that had happened. The company waited until XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to comply with my demands. They still tried to have me keep the contract but I wished to have nothing to do with them. As of XXXX/XXXX/XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX took full responsibility in the issue and stated that they were going to unwind the deal.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NE
Product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on credit report
Sub-issue: Information is not mine

Complaint:
Equifax has my information combined with a family member of mine. I contacted them and spoke with their Mixed Department. I was told to send a copy of my drivers license and social security card. I did. 4 weeks later I contacted them to get the status of my issue. They told me it was too dark for them to read. I then lightened and enlarged and resubmitted. I was told to check back in 4-6 weeks. At 4 weeks they said they had not received it. At 6 weeks I was told the same. I asked for a mailing address instead of a fax number. I mailed them a copy of my drivers license, social security card, and an Experian credit report to show what my credit should look like. At 4 & 6 weeks they told me they never received it. I keep getting the run around and each time I call have to send them sensitive information to the address and/or fax they give me, but they " have n't receive it ''. They have also told me that I can not have a case opened until they receive the information, so after all of the info I have sent them, they have literally not even started the investigation. I have also been told that there is no way for me to escalate the situation because they do not have the information that I have sent them. Short of driving to XXXX and walking into their office to show them that I am a real person, I do n't know what more I could do. I am at the end of my rope with Equifax and if there is anything that can be done to assist me in correcting their mistake, it would be most appreciated.

Complaint:
To Whom It May Concern, Please be advised that I have received your computer-generated letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional XXXX  days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the XXXX. 
You were advised by me on XXXX XXXX by certified mail ( copy enclosed ) that I questioned the accuracy of a few items on my credit reports. That request was written by me and mailed by me- not a third party agency. It appears obvious to me that you are abusing your power under the XXXX to escape a complete investigation. 
Here again is the incorrect information being reported : XXXX MUTUAL XXXX {$510.00} Additionally there is NO law that states a consumer can not use a third party, so using that as your excuse is a irrelevant. In fact, the United States XXXX has found the whole process so overwhelming that they afford consumers the right to use a third party on their behalf if the consumer so chooses. This is why your statement is so shameful. 
I reserve the right to sue a credit bureau for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and I believe I can prove that you did not use reasonable measures to insure the accuracy of my credit reports and now you are stalling the process even further. 
I realize disputes can be expensive and it is your job to stall them, but you do so at great risk. Please take notice that this letter dated XXXX XXXX is formal notice to you that I am requesting that you continue forward with my original investigation request and please send the results to me within XXXX days. I therefore legally and lawfully refuse your " form letter '' thus giving you only XXXX days not XXXX more. 
I am annoyed and outraged at your accusation and I have researched my rights in regards to my credit file. Please expedite my original request immediately.

Issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint:
Our complaint is about Trustmark Bank, XXXX XXXX Our parents created a living trust several years ago ; our mother passed away 4 1/2 years ago, then our father suffered a XXXX approximately 1 year ago and passed away a couple of weeks ago. The provisions of the trust allowed my brother and me to make all financial decisions ( power of attorney while he lived, co-trustees after his death ). Trustmark Bank has refused us access to the money which he had saved over many years, specifically saved to take care of him. They said " we do not accept '' trust documents. Documents which were notarized and filed with the court. 
We are fortunate that we had other financial resources and were able to care for him until his death. We went to the Trustmark branch in XXXX, XXXX after his XXXX approximately one year ago and received nothing but contempt, even though the terms of the trust allowed us to make decisions upon his incapacity. They acted like we were trying to steal his money -- highly insulting. We decided not to sue them since the amount of money was not significant. After his death my brother and I went to the same branch and received the same -- give us the trust documents ( which we have now submitted 4 times ). The lady refused to look at the trust documents, saying she had to get a ruling from " Legal ''. Note that the bank accepted his deposits under the terms of the trust, which were submitted at the time of account opening. 
When asked for a time frame, she said it might be several days or several weeks. Although we were fortunate to have financial resources to care for our father, now deceased, we are concerned about others who may not. We recommend a full investigation of all trust accounts accepted by Trustmark over the past 20 years. This is not an isolated incident ; I discussed our estate settlement with a friend who also said that Trustmark was the largest obstacle to settling his family 's estate.
