Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them. List all accounts : XXXX - XXXX "

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (VA)

I am writing to bring to your attention a matter concerning my credit report with Equifax. Recently, I noticed two inquiries on my report that I did not recognize or authorize. Despite my immediate action to dispute these inquiries with Equifax, they remain on my report.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 USC 1681i, I understand that Equifax is required to conduct a reasonable investigation into these inquiries. However, I have yet to see any resolution or receive any communication from Equifax regarding this matter.

Furthermore, as per the FCRA, once Equifax receives my identity theft report, they are required to block the disputed information within four business days. I kindly request that this provision be enforced.
