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.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Experian, Transunion and Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, Transunion and Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian, Transunion and Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I recently applied for a mortgage and discovered that my Equifax credit report contains serious inaccuracies. While XXXX XXXX XXXX reports initially reflected correct data, I now request that all three credit bureaus verify and ensure accuracy moving forward. 

In particular, Equifax appears to have merged my file with another individual named XXXX XXXX, who previously lived at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX As a result, several accounts and personal details are being reported under my profile that do not belong to me. 

For example, there are two auto loans listed on my reportI have never owned a car or applied for an auto loan. These accounts are completely unrelated to me, and their presence is damaging my credit during a critical time. 

I contacted Equifax and worked with a representative named XXXX. I submitted my government-issued ID and Social Security card and completed a XXXX form to correct my name and date of birth. While that portion of the correction was successful, the incorrect accounts and address information remain. 

I am currently under contract to purchase a home, and if these errors are not corrected immediately, I risk losing the property. 

My full legal name is XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
My current address is : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. 
My Social Security Number is XXXX, and my date of birth is XXXX  I am happy to provide full identifying documentation securely if needed. 

I respectfully request that : Equifax immediately remove all incorrect accounts, addresses, and personal information associated with XXXX XXXX from my credit profile. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX conduct a review to ensure no data contamination has occurred and confirm that all data reported under my profile is accurate and belongs to me. 

Attached is a copy of my Equifax credit report with all incorrect data highlighted. 

Please confirm receipt of this message and advise on the next steps for formal correction. Thank you for your prompt attention.

The consumer reporting agency has willfully violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681b Permissible purposes of consumer reports, by furnishing or reporting information on my credit file without my written consent or legal authorization.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 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.
