Consumer complaint received 2024-09-23
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (CA)

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 Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

I have disputed the validity of reported late payments multiple time requesting that I be sent actual physical proof such as a bank statement proving that I have been indeed late making payment. To date no actual physical proof has been provided. The credit bureaus will continuously " update '' the information on my credit report and have not removed the negative remarks stating that my accounts have been late at least once. They absolutely refuse to send the proof they are required to send if in fact they are doing an actual investigation which is a clear violation of my FCRA rights; According to FCRA rules 602. Congressional findings and statement of purpose [ 15 U.S.C. 1681 ] - ( b ) Reasonable procedures.

I was completely stunned this evening when I saw inaccurate accounts listed on my credit report, and Im at a loss as to why this is happening. I routinely check my credit report, and this time, I was met with discrepancies that seemingly appeared out of nowhere. I attempted to refresh my browser, hoping it was a simple error, but the incorrect accounts stayed put. Because of this unsettling issue, Im asking for a thorough review of the documents Ive provided so that I can be assured this wont happen again.
