Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (CA)

I want to be absolutely clear : I did not approve these transactions to be in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. So, I formally ask to block and remove them from my record. This isn't a mistake, nor is it based on any misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my clear consent or instruction. I'm stressing this to show how serious my request is. It's based on accurate info, and I'm not trying to deceive or manipulate the situation.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Penn Credit Corporation (NY)

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a collection notice from Penn Credit Corp for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I immediately contacted them indicating I wanted to dispute the debt because it does not belong to me. The first reason is because i do not live in XXXX and have never lived or owned property there. I live and work in XXXX XXXX  XXXX. I own my own home and have since XXXX the utility company i am using is XXXX for lights and XXXX XXXX for heat. There is no reason to have gas & electric services in XXXX. The second reason is because I explained to them that i am a victim of identity theft. Somehow my social was compromised and people have been applying for benefits and things under my name. I sent them proof of that as well. Instead of investigating the situation, I received notification from XXXX XXXX XXXX that they put me in collections. Then after already placing in collections i get a package in the mail from Penn Credit with forms to dispute the debt. Wouldn't it have been fair to let me dispute it first, then if things did not add up, THEN put it in collections? Instead, they put me in collections first without even giving me a chance to submit the paperwork. There were also questions I asked for them to answer that they never did. I would like those questions answered.

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.

I am continually being called on the telephone by this agency over an alleged debt. I am requesting validation of this debt. This account has been reporting inaccurately. I wanted to dispute this account because of this and it was affecting my credit report. I am having problems with this unfair treatment. I am sure that I settled this account before because it was not mine. This account was taken care of with the original creditor and promised me to update it out of my report. Therefore, this account is unverifiable. 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.

I am writing to formally dispute the inaccurate and erroneous accounts listed on my credit report. Despite my multiple correspondences and dispute letters sent to your bureau, these inaccuracies persist on my credit file. Upon contacting the companies associated with these accounts, they confirmed that the entries were made in error and assured me that the entire accounts would be removed from their records. However, your bureau continues to report these accounts, which is a source of significant concern and distress for me. Moreover, other credit bureaus have acknowledged the inaccuracies in the reporting of these accounts and have already removed them from their records. This inconsistency in reporting across different bureaus is not only perplexing but also detrimental to my creditworthiness and financial well-being. The persistence of these erroneous accounts on my credit report contravenes the principles of accurate and fair reporting mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). As such, I am requesting an immediate reinvestigation of these accounts. Your bureau is legally obligated to conduct a thorough and reasonable investigation, promptly reviewing all relevant information provided by the consumer, such as myself.
