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

I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

My Wife and I both had Venmo accounts and I had direct deposit going directly onto her account because she pays the bills. Venmo without warning suspended both our accounts and will not let us have our money. I do not know dates. Its been a few months with no word from Venmo. I think this is criminal to keep someones money like they have. They do not respond ect. Honestly I think since they have kept our money this long with no reason I think they should have to pay a hefty fine.

I am writing to formally notify you of several serious issues regarding my account, specifically your failure to provide the required Form 1099-C, as well as violations of both tax regulations and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 
This is my XXXX  attempt which you have ignored my first request sent on XX/XX/year>. I sent a request stating that there are inaccuracies and I wanted those addressed. 
**Failure to Provide Form 1099-C** Under 26 U.S. Code 6050P, you are required to file a Form 1099-C with the Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ) and provide a copy to me when you cancel a debt of {$600.00} or more. Despite the cancellation of my debt, I have not received this form from your company. This failure to comply with IRS regulations constitutes a serious violation and can be considered tax fraud. 
**Violation of Tax Regulations** Your failure to issue a Form 1099-C as mandated by 26 U.S. Code 6050P is a violation of federal tax law. This omission prevents me from properly reporting my income to the IRS, which may expose me to potential penalties and interest for underreporting income. Additionally, it constitutes tax fraud under 26 U.S. Code 7206, which addresses fraud and false statements. 
**Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) ** Furthermore, your actions are in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, codified at 15 U.S. Code 1681s- 2. This section requires furnishers of information to provide accurate information to credit reporting agencies and to correct any inaccuracies. Your failure to provide accurate information, including the status of my debt, has caused inaccuracies on my credit report, which negatively affects my creditworthiness.

This is an addendum to complaint I filed under email : XXXX. 
Complaint number : XXXX. 
To summarize here that complaint. Cashapp has stated they have mailed me my card twice to no avail. I have not received a card. Their standardized response is Since its been more than 14 days since you ordered your Cash Card on [ insert date ] [ insert time ] XXXX ( Central Standard Time ) , it was likely lost in the mail. You can get a new card by tapping below : They have told me this twice and yet again telling me to request the card for a third time. I am refusing and requested a card be expedited to me. Attachments will show a manager removed me and said he could mail my card out expedited but never responded after that email until today. After filing this complaint the manager came back via email and stated that they have reimbursed me the fee of {$5.00} for the specialized card which is not true. The ( other ) complaint which is this one being generated ( an addendum ) to the original XXXX. Is I sent a family member {$5.00}. It never made it to their account. Cashapp said its because they needed to create a new account however this person still has their original account access and card. Cashapp told me to request an official reimbursement I did so ( please see attachment ). They have yet to reimburse the {$5.00} I sent to a family member as well. I requested they the manager cease communication with me via email as he was unable to mail me out my redesigned ( {$5.00} card ) expeditiously without me having to wait another 14 days which would total 42 days with no promise of actually receiving my card. Also because they have bee n unable to reimburse me the {$5.00} I sent to a family member. Important exchanges ( screenshots ) are attached. Which includes the original complaint filed under email : XXXX. This is imperative as not having access to my funds has caused me to fall behind/short on important bills such as my rent and feeding my family.
