Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Public record information inaccurate
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NJ)

XX/XX/year> XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NJ XXXX I am formally lodging a complaint against EQUIFAX for the inaccurate reporting of a bankruptcy on my credit report, which constitutes a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Below, XXXX detail the relevant statutes and stipulate the necessary corrective actions : 1. Inaccurate Bankruptcy Reporting : EQUIFAX has erroneously listed a bankruptcy on my credit report, which is patently inaccurate and baseless. This misrepresentation critically impacts my financial standing and violates my rights under FCRA provisions. 

XXXX. Violation of Privacy Rights Under FCRA : Per 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( 4 ), it is stipulated that as a consumer, I have an unequivocal right to privacy concerning my credit information. By disseminating incorrect bankruptcy information, EQUIFAX is in blatant breach of this statutory protection. 

XXXX. Lack of Permissible Purpose as Mandated by FCRA : As defined under 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), any consumer reporting agency is mandated to have a legitimate permissible purpose to disclose consumer credit information. The unlawful inclusion of inaccurate bankruptcy information without due diligence and accurate verification flouts compliance with this regulatory requirement. 

XXXX. Insufficient Reinvestigation Process : Despite my previous disputes regarding this incorrect information, EQUIFAX has defended its erroneous reporting without conducting a thorough and meaningful reinvestigation as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( a ). The failure to correct this inaccuracy reflects a systemic disregard for compliance with FCRA mandates. 

The inaccurate and unfounded reporting of bankruptcy by EQUIFAX is not merely an administrative oversight but a significant violation of the FCRA. The continuation of such discrepancies undermines my right to accurate and fair credit reporting, I implore the CFPB to prioritise this complaint, enforce compliance with FCRA standards, and ensure the swift rectification of my credit report. 

Thank you for your prompt attention and action regarding this grave matter. I eagerly await your response and resolution. 

SINCERELY, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Dear concerned, This is regarding the notice of Repossession I received XX/XX/year>. It included the number I have to pay by XX/XX/year> ( {$5800.00} ) so I can have my vehicle released. And I talked on phone with Ally representative, and they confirmed the amount I have to pay. 

So I managed almost to provide {$5000.00} and called ALLY Financial on XX/XX/XXXX before two days of my deadline. I call the representative and he was like last number changed because we entered a new month and that wasn't explained previously to me, so they ended up having a new number for me which is {$7200.00}. 

How am I supposed to provide that without me having the vehicle and work XXXX on It or make a living? and my Credit Score went down and no bank or institue was willing to lend me {$5000.00}.

I rely on my vehicle for work. I tried offering the {$5000.00} to have It released but he never accepted. 

I don't want the car to be Sold by bank and i have to go through Bankruptcy or so. 
now I have a stable Job luckily for 4 months and I confirmed that with ALLY. I told them give me another chance but never worked.

I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.
