Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (PA)

On XX/XX/year> XXXX and XXXX received my identify theft report. Equifax received it on XX/XX/year>. I called each of the Bureaus on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX  to check the status of my identity theft report. Some of the bureaus have removed some of the fraudulent information. Some had done nothing. The representatives advised me they had 30 days to investigate. I read the FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) which i also sent to them. Per the 605B they have 4 business days to remove said fraudulent information. I made sure to wait over 4 business days as a courtesy. I would appreciate any assistance you could offer in getting this resolved with all 3 bureaus as this is effecting my financial future greatly. I have done everything I am required to do by law.

I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.
