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

I am disputing three credit card accounts that have been listed on my credit report by Equifax without my authorization or involvement. I have never opened or used any accounts with these institutions and have not authorized any third parties to open such accounts on my behalf. Therefore, I am requesting that Equifax validate these accounts, including the name and contact information of the original creditor, the date of last activity, and the amount of alleged debt. 

I have sent a XXXX dispute letter to Equifax requesting the validation of these accounts, and if they fail to provide the requested information or remove these items from my credit report, I plan to pursue legal action against the company for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act and causing damage to my credit rating.

I signed up for Invisalign treatment at a dental clinic called XXXX XXXX in XXXX, NY. I signed up for a payment plan at the clinic, but then I needed to sign a second set of forms before I could officially begin the Invisalign treatment. I contacted one of the clinic 's employees that has been handling my treatment process and told them that I wasn't ready to sign the second set of papers and that I wanted to put it on hold for the time being. My contact at the dental clinic agreed not to begin my Invisalign treatment. But then I started getting a multitude of calls from this company called Commenity Bank, up to 5 calls a day and deleted about 15 voicemails this week. I reached out to my contact at the clinic for assistanceo n the matter, but I'm not getting any response back from them.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (AZ)

I am submitting this CFPB complaint in regard to the erroneous accounts being reported by the Credit Bureau on my Credit Report. I have read that Credit Reporting Agency are required to validate for themselves the information they report on a consumer 's Credit File under the Fair Credit Reporting Act Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). I previously requested the Credit Bureau to update the payment history of the accounts in dispute. Upon reviewing my updated Credit report, I immediately noticed that the Accounts in dispute are still reporting as late. If the Credit Bureau chose to not comply with the law and does not correct the payment status of the following accounts, I will be forced to initiate legal actions. If it is not that too much trouble, I need the Credit Bureau to correct the following accounts : XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$220000.00} ; XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$960.00} ;

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NY)

The XXXX credit bureaus are reporting incorrect information on my credit report, TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX. These errors are a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Multiple times these credit bureaus have listed incorrect information on my credit report. This incorrect information is being reported by not one but all three of the credit bureaus. It is causing an extreme amount of stress. No matter what I do these credit agencies are not assisting me and are not replying to any letters that I send them. This is an issue because the FCRA states that they must complete an investigation in 30 days, yet this has not be adhered to. If I do not receive any information from them is this not a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act? It indeed is. If you take a look at my attached photos you will see all the inaccurate reporting 's with these accounts. Such as date of last activity, date opened, reporting Charge-off 's only on a payment history. How can a CO be reported as payment history? This is terrible, this wrong. The FCRA states that each credit bureau is to report identical information, however, they're all reporting incorrect information. This is not ok, and is against the law.

We've talked to the bank & they've agreed to remove the account. BUT TransUnion has some internal block which they're claiming they can use to not block the account because they feel they're above the law. When questioned why they're not accepting the Identity Theft report they claim they have an internal policy ( which is OUTSIDE FCRA laws ) & they're unwilling to explain why they won't accept the Identity Theft report ( which is a FEDERAL LAW ). So TransUnion feels they're above the letter of the law & will not explain their policy...

It has been over 60 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts de deleted immediately or I will file for ligation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the XXXX data breach and may have gotten into the hands of the wrong person.
