Complaint sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

After filing four disputes on XX/XX/2021, Equifax failed to timely investigate and remove the inaccurate, outdated, and/or unverifiable information that I disputed. In addition, Equifax failed to indicate the actions it allegedly took in response to my disputes, when it finally acknowledged one of my disputes on XX/XX/2021. 

I again ask that Equifax remove the inaccurate, outdated, and/or unverified information that I requested more than eight months ago, in my disputes numbered XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. 

I also reserve all my rights under state law to bring civil action against Equifax for these failures.
