Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (MA)

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.

Notice of Violation of FCRA 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a matter of utmost importance regarding recent discrepancies observed in my credit report. As per the regulations outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( 3 ), it is imperative for entities to acknowledge and properly handle consumer disputes concerning the accuracy or completeness of data provided to consumer reporting agencies. 

Upon thorough review of my credit report, it has come to my attention that certain information has been inaccurately reported. I have taken the necessary steps to dispute these discrepancies, providing ample time for resolution, as explicitly stated in my previous correspondences. 

However, to my dismay, these disputes have not been duly noted as required by law. 
Under the provisions of 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( B ), it is explicitly stated that information must not be furnished to any credit reporting agency if it has been notified by the consumer of specific inaccuracies. Despite providing clear notification through certified mail, accompanied by return receipts confirming delivery, there has been a blatant disregard for my concerns and legal rights. 

HOWEVER I APPLIED FOR CREDIT, AND SUBMITTED A CONSUMER CREDIT TRANSACTION SO WHOS CREDIT DID YOU GIVE ME?. YOU CLAIM THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN ME A CREDIT CARD BUT THAT IS INDEED MISLEADING AND DECEPTIVE AS ( EXPLAINED BEFORE IN PREVIOUS LETTERS ) THAT A CREDIT CARD IS NOT SOMETHING YOU ISSUE YOURSELF. WE ARE BOTH AWARE OF THE DEBENTURES BEING UTILIZED, WHICH CREATES THE FANTASY YOU SO HOPE FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME TO BELIEVE IN YOU ACTUALLY GIVING US MONEY OR A LOAN. HOWEVER, YOU CAN NOT LEND CREDIT WHICH IS WHAT THIS TRANSACTION CONSISTED OF, A CONSUMER CREDIT TRANSACTION. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT IT HAS TOOK ME QUITE SOME TIME TO OVERSTAND YOUR MISCHIEVOUS WAYS AND THE NUMBER OF TIMES I HAVE BEEN VIOLATED WITHOUT SEEKING COMPENSATION OR REPARATIONS. MY TIME IS RUNNING OUT AS I DO NOT HAVE AN INFINITE AMOUNT OF YEARS LEFT BUT I HAVE TO SPEND TIME KNOWING SUCH THINGS.

HI I AM SUBMITTING THIS WITHOUT ANY INFLUENCE AND THIS IS NOT A THIRD PARTY. THE CREDIT BUREAUS STATED MY ACC WAS PROPERLY INVESTIGATED BUT HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE IF THE OPEN DATE IS INACCURATE, THE DATE LAST ACTIVE IS INACCURATE, AND THE DATE LAST REPORTED IS NOT ACCURATE? THIS GROUND FOR REMOVAL, THEY ALSO VIOLATED MY RIGHTS UNDER 15 U.S.C 1681 SECTION 602 A. STATES I HAVE THE RIGHT TO PRIVACY.

15 U.S.C 1681 SECTION 604 SECTION 2. IT ALSO STATES A CONSUMER REPORTING AGENCY CAN NOT FURNISH AN ACCOUNT WITHOUT MY WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS.

PLEASE SEE ATTACHED LETTERS.
