Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score — Problem getting your free annual credit report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

I have filed multiple complaints through the CFPB over the last year plus and I have also mailed in complaints along with my documents : social security card, drivers license, proof of address. Even when providing all the documents XXXX and Equifax continue to send me stall letters requesting the same information that has been sent multiple times. When I have called both companies they have stated I have no alerts and no fraud alerts on my file and there is no block however through Annual Credit Report and even their own sites I have been unable to retrieve my reports after submitting documents over 5 times. I have recently requested full disclosure of my ENTIRE CONSUMER FILE. I did not receive my file as again I was sent yet another letter about my identity that documents have been provided over and over. This is causing harm to me!

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (AZ)

I contacted XXXX by phone on XXXX to report an inaccuracy being presented on my consumer report. I requested to have this account ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) removed because the account does not belong to me. Further, XXXX XXXX XXXX violated the FDCPA rule XXXX since I was not notified in writing prior to this alleged debt being reported on my consumer report. 
XXXX is now requiring me to provide personal information and explain ( prove ) why this alleged debt/account does not belong to me. However, the entity ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) was not required to provide any information whatsoever to prove the validity/accuracy of this alleged debt. Why do I ( the consumer ) have to prove why an account that was never validated DOES NOT belong to me when the entity is not required to do the same prior to reporting the account on my consumer report. 
The verifying documents that are being requested of XXXX ( from me ) have already been provided on numerous occasions via certified mail. I have attached these documents for review. Where are these documents being stored and why am I continually having to provide them when I identify an inaccuracy on my account. 
It seems that the credit bureaus are more supportive of reporting inaccurate information without any validation as opposed to recognizing an inaccuracy identified by the consumer and removing that inaccuracy in accordance with Fair Credit Reporting Act and FDCPA rule XXXX, Validation of Debt requirements.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deep frustration and dissatisfaction with the handling of my recent attempts to correct inaccuracies on my credit report. I believe it is my right to have accurate and up-to-date information on my credit report, and I have made diligent efforts to rectify the errors that have been negatively impacting my creditworthiness. 

I first noticed discrepancies in my credit report when I requested a copy from your agency. Specifically, I found that there were late open accounts listed that I believed to be inaccurate. To rectify this issue, I promptly filed a dispute with your agency in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Despite providing all the required documentation and evidence to support my dispute, I received no resolution or response from your agency within the 30-day period stipulated by the FCRA. This lack of response prompted me to escalate the matter by sending a second dispute letter. Again, I provided all the necessary documentation and waited for a response.

To my dismay, I have yet to receive any meaningful communication from your agency regarding the status of my disputes. This is a clear violation of the FCRA, which mandates that credit reporting agencies must investigate disputes within a reasonable timeframe and respond to consumers in a timely manner. 

I understand that errors can occur, but I have made multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies corrected, and the lack of response from your agency is not only frustrating but also damaging to my financial well-being. These inaccuracies have resulted in unfavorable terms and increased interest rates on loans and credit cards, causing me financial hardship. 

If this matter is not addressed promptly and satisfactorily, I will have no choice but to escalate my complaint to the appropriate regulatory authorities and consider legal action to protect my rights as a consumer. Please assist me to correct the following accounts : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
