Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX, 2017 Equifax became aware of a breach in security that included stolen information for 100+ million people. It has taken well over a month for the company to disclose this information to the public, allowing whoever accessed the data to sell or use it and denying consumers the right to protect themselves by adding alerts or be on the lookout.
XXXX XXXX, 2017 I became aware of a security breach wherein millions of people and I were put at risk of fraudulent activity. I have gone forth and put a fraud alert on my accounts and looked over my credit report for suspicious behavior. I have verified with the Equifax site, and my information in fact has been breached by this incident and I am still not sure what the resolution for this mismanagement will be. I would like Equifax to find a speedy resolution in order to put the millions they put at risk at ease and put more measures in place to aid those like me who are affected.

Sub-issue: Application denied

Complaint:
After CFPB resolved my complaint about XXXX, I applied for a credit card from Capital One. I was immediately notified at the end of the application that I was approved for {$30000.00} line. The card was sent to me immediately and I created user name and password. I was then told I had to call Capital One to verify the card, which I did. I was transfered to Fraud Dept and they said I had to answer questions to verify my identity. I answered several questions correctly and then the agent asked me when I had purchased property at my current address. I had this info readily available and said it was 2001. They said the answer was incorrect. I said I had previously owned a different property at the address, which I transferred, but I would have to look through my files to find the date of the purchase. They said this was not acceptable ; if I could n't answer immediately, my card would be cancelled. So in the end, I wasted several days and have no card.

Complaint:
I received a summons to small claims yesterday for two emergency medical bills accrued during the pandemic and that also fell in a grey area when looking at what my Medicaid covers retroactively. I spoke with the debt collectors in XXXX of this year to explain that. After no further contact, I thought Medicaid covered one or both of the accounts. I definitely did not think Id be sued, given I had made recent payments on other accounts and had long standing unpaid accounts that werent attempted to be collected as aggressively. Both the collector and his supervisor made disparaging comments to me about my financial state and laughed while saying he cant wait to see me in court.

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.
