Consumer complaint received 2024-03-07
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

I am writing to formally address the ongoing issue regarding late open accounts and charge off accounts on my credit report and express my frustration with the multiple unsuccessful attempts to have them corrected and removed. Despite numerous efforts on my part, the inaccuracies persist, causing significant distress and damage to my financial standing. 

Since discovering the late open accounts and charge off accounts on my credit report, I have diligently followed the prescribed procedures outlined by your agency to rectify these issues. I have submitted formal disputes, provided supporting documentation, and cooperated fully with your investigation process. However, despite my persistent efforts, the inaccuracies remain unresolved. 

The presence of these inaccuracies not only undermines the accuracy and integrity of my credit report but also poses a serious threat to my financial stability. As a responsible consumer, I find it unacceptable to be unfairly penalized for inaccuracies that do not accurately reflect my credit behavior. 

Furthermore, the lack of progress and communication regarding the status of my disputes has further exacerbated my frustration and eroded my trust in your agency. I have not received any updates or explanations regarding the reasons for the repeated failure to correct these inaccuracies, leaving me feeling disregarded and powerless in protecting my financial interests. 

I demand immediate and effective action to thoroughly investigate and rectify these situations by expediting the correction of the late open accounts and removal of the charge off accounts from my credit report. Additionally, I request transparent communication and regular updates regarding the steps being taken to address these matters. 

Given the urgency of these issues, I urge you to prioritize their resolution and expedite the correction and removal process. Any further delay or lack of communication will compel me to escalate this complaint to relevant regulatory authorities and pursue all available legal remedies to seek redress for the harm caused to my creditworthiness and financial standing. 

I trust that you will take this matter seriously and prioritize its resolution to avoid any further escalation. Please acknowledge receipt of this complaint and provide assurance that immediate steps will be taken to address my concerns. With this, I am asking for your assisstance to remove or correct these accounts in my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$1300.00} - It seems that the following information reported is incorrect : account number, payment status, and date open. Get it right immediately ; otherwise, update the account from my report. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX Balance : {$36000.00} - Please check the Payment History and Status information on this account and adjust accordingly. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} - This account was showing an inaccurate payment history and payment status. A charge-off should show a XXXX balance. This inaccurate information continues to do harm to my credit. Please provide proof of the last payment. Otherwise, remove this from my file. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$16000.00} - I requested an investigation and the removal of the charge-off status. No changes were made. No investigation was conducted at all. You had optimal time to review this matter and make the appropriate corrections, you elected not to. Please remove this item immediately. 

XXXX XXXX Balance : {$7900.00} - The limit to this account was a fraction of the amount due it as stated. That is utterly unfathomable! Had a proper investigation been conducted you would have seen the error and corrected it immediately. You failed to do your job ; you must now REMOVE THIS ITEM ALTOGETHER.
