Consumer complaint received 2022-03-01
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (UT)

I disputed several tradelines on the consumer reports and in the consumer file concerning me over 18 months. Equifax has failed or refused to delete the inaccurate and incomplete information even when I've presented them with proof of the irreparable errors. I do not give Equifax permission to publish, report, furnish or appropriate my personal information or private financial transactions. I did not give Equifax permission to have my private financial records, and therefore they are violating my privacy rights, damaging me, defaming my character, and harassing me by not complying with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Code of Federal Regulations, United State Code, and state consumer protection laws. 

I mailed disputes to the address provided by Equifax, and their registered agent in Utah where I reside. Because Equifax refused to delete incorrect and incomplete tradelines from the consumer file concerning me, I demanded full disclosure of the file according to FCRA 609. 

Equifax has failed or refused to comply with Fair Credit Reporting Act 609 and provide me with a physical copy of the consumer file they have concerning me. I demanded full disclosure on XX/XX/2022 and they failed or refused to send it to me within required 15 days. I gave them an opportunity to cure their default of providing full disclosure on XX/XX/2022. I have yet to receive the required FCRA 609 full disclosure of the entire consumer file concerning me. 

This leads me to believe that Equifax does not have reasonable procedures in place to ensure maximum possible accuracy of the information they compile and publish in the consumer file and consumer reports concerning me. 

Equifax is reporting an account that doesn't even have a tradename and I've requested that it be deleted, yet it hasn't. How could Equifax have verified or validated an account whom they don't even have an entity to contact? 

The following accounts tradelines need to be DELETED immediately because the entities do not exist and I have no legal recourse against them : 1. XXXX XXXX XXXX 2. XXXX XXXX 3. XXXX XXXX 4. XXXX XXXX XXXX 6. XXXX 7. XXXX XXXX XXXX  8. XXXX XXXX XXXX 9. XXXX XXXX DELETE the inquiry from XXXX - XXXX XXXX as I have never done business with them or given them permission to access the consumer file or consumer report concerning me. This tradename does not exist and is not registered to do business in Utah. 

I am the only person that can validate or verify any information regarding my private financial matters and therefore, I do not give Equifax permission to include anything in the consumer file or a consumer report concerning me without first getting certified written permission directly from me, not from anyone else. I am the only person with firsthand knowledge of the accuracy of my consumer credit transactions. 

I am attaching my dispute letters that Equifax has failed or refused to comply with. I request that you CEASE AND DESIST with including all disputed information in the consumer file or consumer reports concerning me.
