Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Upon reviewing my updates, the incorrect information was still found in my reports which I believe has been taken care of due to the written appeals I sent. I feel like I'm being taken advantage of and being ignored. At this time I would like to prepare another appeal for investigation before I confer with my own counsel to obtain advice on how to handle a fraudulent, incorrect, and unverifiable account that is kept to be established as correct. I am in desperate need of this item to be INSPECTED and REMOVED.

Complaint narrative:
To date Freedom has failed to favorably address my request for forbearance on my loan on XX/XX/XXXX. Foreclosure proceedings have begun, and the documents recorded in the Notice of Default state that Freedom has not denied forbearance since XX/XX/XXXX which is false. Freedom has denied my request for a formal forbearance since XX/XX/XXXX. In addition, Freedom continues to put in writing that the offer made for loss mitigation is based on an incomplete application which is also false as noted in the communications attached below. I immediately submitted ALL requested documentation in XX/XX/XXXX. While Freedom continues to present as making efforts to assist by making an offer that clearly does not address my continued requests for forbearance, my hardship remains. I provided a complete application back in XX/XX/XXXX. Please see communication attached below.
