Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (IL)

OFFICIAL CONSUMER COMPLAINT and FORMAL DEMAND a thorough CHECK of the required CERTIFIED COMPLAINT REPORTING OF PHYSICALLY VERIFIED valid, true, accurate, complete, and timely of the reported alleged claims. Furthermore, I challenge you to provide evidence supporting these claims. As a consumer, I have the right to contest the reportability of any information that is deficient in any way. I demand that you promptly and PERMANENTLY delete any alleged claims of inquiries, delinquencies, or derogatory remarks if you are unable, unwilling, or fail to demonstrate lawful evidence as requested throughout this notice. This removal must be carried out without exception or delay. 

To Whom It May Concern : My consumer rights are being violated with this inaccurate information! I have a right to be treated fairly by those who control it, so please provide me all available details on how they came up short in their responsibilities towards accuracy and compliance. I am officially challenging you to review your data on file for me! With the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) section 611 ( 15 U S C 1681I ) and Metro 2 compliance standards, I challenge all inaccuracies or deficiencies of reporting. The credit report I received was not accurate, which surprises me because you should be adhering to the FCRA and applicable Metro 2 data field formatting standards.

As a consumer, I have listed the concerns about your reporting in this document. It is not complete and does not meet applicable standards because according to law you are required for both FCRAs as well as Metro 2 compliance which must be done truthfully with correct information being provided timely so that none of my rights are violated I am aware that you have been sending out form letters in response to many of the disputes and challenges that consumers have submitted, regardless of the specific information that they have provided. This is illegal, as each dispute and challenge must be addressed individually and on its own merits. My letters were created using software that is available to everyone. If you don't process my letters, you are violating 15 U.S. Code 5 1681i.

Keep in mind, you are not allowed to delay processing letters from consumers based on the assumption that help from a third party may be available. This is not a legal exception. I am the author of any letters you receive with my name on them. Either I or my advisors wrote them with my full knowledge and consent. I am aware that there is no law that says you need to provide a Power of Attorney in order to delay processing letters from a consumer. If you do not process my letters in a timely manner, I will consider it to be an intentional disregard of my rights as a consumer. I will then contact my lawyer to take legal action.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Equifax Information Services LLC XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX After sending many rounds of disputes with certified tracking numbers I am beginning to think Equifax is avoiding following consumer laws. As a consumer I request to know all the steps your agency took to ensure these items were 100 % accurate. Under USC 1681i ( 7 ) A consumer reporting agency shall provide to a consumer a description referred to in paragraph ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) - a notice that, if requested by the consumer, a description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information shall be provided to the consumer by the agency, including the business name and address of any furnisher of information contacted in connection with such information and the telephone number of such furnisher, if reasonably available ; by not later than 15 days after receiving a request from the consumer for that description. I never received any documents which are required by law. THIS IS NOW considered a consumer violation. You ( Equifax ) were obligated to do a complete and 100 % accurate investigation on my disputes, that I sent out certified, I received results back on XX/XX/XXXX via Equifax online portal for Accounts : XXXX and XXXX and you CLAIM they came back verified? 

USC 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information ( A ) In general If, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall ( i ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation; and ( ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer. 


PLEASE SEND THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION USED TO VALIDATE THE ITEMS ACCORDANCE TO USC 1681i ( 7 ) and USC 1681i ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) OTHERWISE DELETE THESE ITEMS FROM MY CREDIT REPORT IMMEDIATELY accordance to USC 1681i ( 5 ) Accounts : XXXX XXXX  I would love to avoid litigation on this matter if possible. 



Thanks, XXXX XXXX

I looked over my credit report and saw some inaccurate information. Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) mandate that the three credit bureaus confirm these details ( A ). These items may not be reported as unverified information without providing any supporting information within the legally allowed time range. The following items are shown on my credit report as needing investigation and deletion because they were reported incorrectly in my file.

This is one of several times I've discovered that my credit report had inaccurate information. The three credit bureaus must verify these items in accordance with Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). It is not acceptable to report these items as unconfirmed information without validating them within the legally required time range. The following false information on my credit report has to be investigated, amended, or completely updated. Thank you.

On XX/XX/2023 I used my Citizens Banking App to deposit a check ... mobile deposit. I read the fine print and was situated to wait a few days for my money to clear. Five days later i receive {$220.00} out of my XXXX XXXXXXXX check and am informed that the rest of the funds will be available XX/XX/XXXX ... ... XX/XX/XXXX!? I don't even understand that's an entire week later than any other bank. This has cost me late fees and to be threatened with eviction for unpaid rent. I would really like an explanation as to why I should cope with those things and I've been to the bank to receive the rest of my money and nothing will be done and no explanation as to why my check is " suspect '' from my employer. Hands down it just seems criminal the amount of time I've waited to get to my own money no other bank would have taken this long.

I am writing to express my disappointment regarding the unresolved inaccuracies on my credit report, despite multiple previous dispute attempts. As a diligent consumer, I have consistently adhered to the procedures outlined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) in an effort to rectify these discrepancies. 

Upon reviewing my credit report, I have identified several items that contain erroneous information. Despite my repeated efforts to dispute these inaccuracies through your agency, they have not been appropriately addressed or corrected. This failure to rectify the errors has had a detrimental impact on my creditworthiness and financial well-being. 

Under the FCRA, consumers have the right to accurate and verifiable information on their credit reports. It is disheartening to see that despite my compliance with the dispute process and provision of supporting documentation, the inaccuracies persist. 

I urge your agency to take immediate action to investigate and rectify the disputed items on my credit report in accordance with the FCRA guidelines. Additionally, I request that you provide me with a detailed explanation of the steps taken during the investigation process and the outcome thereof. 

Furthermore, I would appreciate your assistance in ensuring that such inaccuracies do not reoccur in the future. I trust that your agency will uphold its obligations under the FCRA and work diligently to resolve this matter in a timely and satisfactory manner. 

Please find attached copies of relevant documents, including previous dispute correspondence, to facilitate the investigation process. I expect a prompt response to this dispute complaint within the statutory time frame stipulated by the FCRA. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution and the correction of the inaccuracies on my credit report.

Equifax is reporting inaccurate accounts and information on my consumer in which I've previously sent them dispute letters to investigate these accounts. They responded that they are verified and accurate but never provided any documentation of proof. The accounts listed in my dispute never belonged to me nor do I have knowledge of who they are asking to collect debt. Ive reached out to the creditor asking them to verify this debt, which they couldnt. How can I owe them a debt if there was no agreement set in place? I understand that it is Equifax 's duty to do whats fair and equitable for the consumer and it isnt fair that they failed to properly investigate these accounts. Anything thats inaccurate or not verifiable must be removed from my consumer report immediately. Included in my complaint is a new dispute letter in which I ask Equifax to thoroughly investigate these accounts and remove anything thats inaccurate or Non verifiable.

I am distressed that you have included the information below in my credit profile and have failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to ensure the maximum possible accuracy in the credit reports you publish. Credit reporting laws provide that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to ensure the information reported is completely accurate and correct.
