Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (IL)

On my recent XXXX credit report, I discovered that Equifax has inaccurately added 16 inquiries belonging to someone else and in the process they backdating them from XX/XX/XXXX, to XX/XX/XXXX. 

These inquiries are XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. 

It is impossible for these inquiries to be mine as each one of them have a reporting date from XXXX and my credit report had no inquiries from the prior years as well as no inquiries as of XX/XX/XXXX, through XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX actions violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which mandates that credit reporting agencies follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy of the information on a consumers credit report. 

I demand the immediate removal of these erroneous inquiries from my credit report

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (AL)

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Company: TrueAccord Corp. (FL)

I'm submitting this complaint against XXXX and True Accord for practices that I believe infringe upon the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). As per my agreement with XXXX, all disputes concerning my account were to be settled through arbitration. However, without my consent or any arbitration proceedings, XXXX transferred my loan to a collection agency, True Accord. In their response, they confessed that they no longer own the debt ; it was now held by a collection agency. I argue that this act is a breach of contract and infringes upon my rights as a consumer. Upon becoming aware of this issue, I reached out to XXXX and expressed my readiness to repay the debt directly to them. Despite my readiness to settle the debt, XXXX declined to retrieve the debt, which I believe was transferred unlawfully. Moreover, in the process of this transaction, XXXX revealed my personal information to True Accord without my consent. I maintain this is a violation of FCRA Section 604 ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( F ), which limits the distribution of consumer data without a legitimate business requirement. After acquiring my loan, True Accord has resorted to harassment to recover the purported debt. They have phoned me multiple times during my work hours and even reached out to my workplace directly. They also threatened to report the debt to credit bureaus if I didn't comply. To avoid further harassment and potential damage to my credit report, I felt compelled to pay True Accord. I posit that these actions contravene FDCPA Section 806 ( 5 ), which forbids causing a telephone to ring or engaging any person in telephone conversation repeatedly or incessantly with the intent to annoy, abuse, or harass any person at the dialed number ; FDCPA Section 805 ( a ) ( 1 ), which prohibits communication with a consumer concerning the collection of any debt at the consumer 's workplace ; and FDCPA Section 807 ( 5 ), which forbids the threat to carry out any action that can not legally be executed or that is not planned to be executed. In light of these concerns, I request the CFPB to probe into these issues and take suitable action to safeguard my consumer rights. I also urge that OppLoans expunge this account from my credit report immediately, as I believe it was unjustly sold and reported to the collection agency.
