The misinformation, inaccurate data and false accounts reporting on my Equifax consumer file is blatant neglect on this CRA 's part. Their lack of transparency with their investigation and willingness to furnish false information instead of maintaining maximum accuracy as outlined in the FCRA is ridiculous. 

Since XX/XX/2021, I have sent certified mail and documented my process concerning the inaccuracy of my consumer report. There is erroneous information reporting on my credit such as XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX in the sums of {$1700.00} and {$230.00} that have not been verified, the lack of sufficient proof has been polarizing in terms of receiving no further documentation of their findings like I requested. Equifax has not been concerned in assuring the validity of these debts and the claim that I owe them. They're also not in compliance of federal and state laws as I was given no notice before they reported to bureaus, upon disputing they have came back " verified '' without showing permissible purpose to attempt too collect these debts and have had complete disregard for FDCPA laws. 

After reaching out to Equifax for months concerning these accounts and the companies helping them furnish fallacies I sent correspondence letting them know my next steps and have yet to receive a document of what I originally have been asking for concerning the questionable information on my credit report.

I want to dispute these accounts because it was affecting my credit report, it was caused by Identity Theft. I did not make these charges. I am having problems with this unfair treatment. These accounts were taken care of with the original creditor and promised me to update it out of my report. Therefore, these accounts shouldn't be in my report. This is an error that you need to look into, so please do your investigation on this and remove or delete this account from my credit report.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (IL)

I deposited a check via Chase ATM from a payout due to an accident I was in via my insurance company ( XXXX ). I was given the wrong information and should have never cashed the check although it was made out to me it also had third party lien holder on it which is my cars finance company ( XXXX XXXX ). The funds from the check was processed into my account and a few days after my account was frozen due to fraud because the check was not endorsed by me and the finance company. I contacted Chase and although they said they understood the situation and it happens they would need either for XXXX to issue another check with the right endorsements, XXXX bank representative to recall the check ( in this case XXXX XXXX XXXX ), or for them to speak directly with my finance company to give a verbal okay to cash the check. I tried to get in contact with the finance company first and they said none of them numbers I provided them cleared through their phone number authentication process. I contacted XXXX to have then to reissue another check and they said they could not because it was already cashed. I asked Chase was the check cashed and they told me no it was just pending and another representative told me yes and that it was sitting in a special account for held funds. My claims adjuster from XXXX contacted their bank representative and tried to start the recall process and they were given the run around for weeks. I called with a XXXX representative on a three-way call to try to help move the process and they tried to make it seem like there was no knowledge of a cashed check or my account when the XXXX representative introduced herself they said that it was a mistake and that they misheard me. Chase Bank is withholding funds and wont release them back to my insurance company. The back and forth has been going on for almost a year at this point. The check was cashed XX/XX/22.
