Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NY)

I recently submitted a request for investigation of the above noted account, which you denied. I submitted sufficient information for you perform a reasonable investigation of my dispute. Unfortunately, you neglected to do so. If you had investigated properly the results would have proven that I have never been late on this account. Actually I am not sure that the account is even mine though your company claims to have removed this. 
Depending solely on your flawed e-Oscar system has proven to produce less than accurate and fair information. I request that you take a more active and accurate approach to investigate this for me. 

As in XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX, Equifax, et al, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' information from the creditors and collection agencies ... that they have to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the honesty/integrity of the creditor/CA in question. Sending out a generic form letter through the e-Oscar system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is by no ones measure reasonable.

Experian is reporting fraudulent inquiries on my credit profile after I have asked them multiple times to remove them. They are being paid by companies that I never did business with to report false information on my credit profile causing great harm to my credit and making me look bad to creditors. I have never authorized these inquiries and I demand that they be removed off my credit profile. I know that only 100 % information can be reported on my credit profile and that any inaccurate Information must be removed. These inquires has caused me to be denied credit and has caused me great financial harm because I can't obtain credit and was denied several loans due to this inaccurate information, they refuse to remove off my credit report. I am asking that the CFPB make this company abide by the FCRA rules and demand them to remove the inaccurate and false information on my credit report. The inquiries listed below do not belong to me I never gave them permission to obtain my credit profile or gain access to my social security number. REMOVE NOW XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX

This is related to the false payment reporting on my credit report for XX/XX/year> I have already called previously and spoken to a customer agent a year ago to have the reporting of this late payment changed to paid on time and was told it would be updated to on paid on time. I distinctly remember speaking to a customer service agent overseas about the fact that that payment was supposed to able set on auto pay and I was unaware the system glitched and didnt allow the autopay to upload. 

I called about the reporting of this late payment and was told by a customer service agent overseas that this would behuldate to paid on time. It is not my fault if XXXX decides to hire people overseas for pay cuts who might not completely what I am saying but that is not the consumers fault! You cant expect to hire people with English as a second language and then allow to make mistakes like these. I was recently denied an apartment and am now homeless due to the false reporting of this late payment! I will sue chase if this continues further. I either want this updated to pay on time as I have no other late payments or changed to no data for that month. But under no circumstances should you guys keep reporting this false information. There is absolutely no proof that this payment was deliberately paid late and it is the only one. This is completely ruining my life and causing major hardship. I should not be homeless while employed because my credit is getting demo. Update it asap or I will have to look into legal action.
