Consumer complaint received 2024-04-16 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against Equifax regarding their failure to respond to my dispute letter and investigate inaccurate items on my credit report and incorrect personal information. 

On XX/XX/2023, and XX/XX/2023, I mailed a dispute letter to Equifax, requesting an investigation into several inaccuracies on my credit report.Additionally, I disputed incorrect personal information listed on my credit report, such as Despite sending the dispute letter via mail and providing all necessary information, I am still waiting to receive a response from Equifax regarding the results of the investigation and I am still waiting to receive acknowledgement or resolution from Equifax. 

This lack of response and failure to investigate the inaccuracies on my credit report is highly concerning and has caused me significant inconvenience and distress. As a consumer, I rely on accurate credit reporting to maintain my financial well-being, and Equifax 's negligence in addressing my concerns is unacceptable. 

I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter thoroughly and take appropriate action against Equifax for their failure to respond to my dispute letter and address the inaccuracies on my credit report. I also request that Equifax be required to provide a prompt and satisfactory resolution to my dispute, including correcting any inaccuracies on my credit report and permanent removal of the disputed negative items on my credit report. 

According to the FCRA, if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information in a consumer 's file at a credit bureau is disputed by the consumer, the bureau must conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate. 

It appears that Equifax has violated my consumer rights by not conducting a reasonable investigation upon receipt of my dispute, which they are required to do in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
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. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

I want to emphasize unequivocally that I did not give written authorization or instructions for the inclusion of these specific transactions in my consumer report.

It is crucial to highlight that this request is not made in error, nor is it grounded in any misrepresentation of relevant facts concerning the request to block these transactions. 

This assertion is important because it underscores the fact that these transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. By emphasizing this point, I aim to convey the seriousness of my request and ensure that it is not overlooked or dismissed. Additionally, I want to clarify that my request is based on accurate and relevant information, and I am not attempting to manipulate or deceive in any way.

Complaint narrative:
In light of recent developments, it has been brought to my attention that the creditor failed to furnish the required XXXX notice along with a statement, which would have allowed sufficient time for payment processing and thus, prevented any late payments from occurring on these accounts. This oversight has led to a misrepresentation of the payment status, suggesting a billing error on the part of the creditor. 

In response to this discrepancy, I kindly request tangible evidence from the creditor 's bank account, demonstrating any instances of non-payment that purportedly resulted in the reported late status. This evidence is essential for clarifying the circumstances surrounding the alleged late payments and verifying the accuracy of the reported information.
