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: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to submit a complaint against Equifax for their failure to provide documented proof of late payments on XXXX XXXX XXXX  Account Number : XXXX that was inaccurately reported. Despite multiple requests ( five times ), Equifax has continued to claim that the creditor has verified the information as accurate without providing any supporting documentation. This has led to ongoing inaccuracies on my credit report, causing financial harm and distress. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX constantly reports to Equifax that I had a late payment on XXXX, XXXX. I Have never made a late payment to this company. I would like documented proof of this late payment, If documented proof can not be provided to ME via email or mail I would like this account updated to " Paid As Agreed '' or removed from my account. 

Timeline of Events XX/XX/XXXX : Initial dispute submitted to Equifax regarding inaccurate account information XX/XX/XXXX : Equifax responded, stating the creditor verified the information as accurate, but no documentation was provided Desired Resolution I demand an escalation of this matter and request that Equifax provide the following : 1. Immediate removal of the inaccurate information from my credit report 2. Documentation proving late payments, as claimed by Equifax and the creditor 3. A formal investigation into Equifax 's handling of my dispute and their failure to provide supporting documentation 4. Compensation for the financial harm and distress caused by Equifax 's actions Additional Information I have attached supporting documentation, including [ list attached documents, e.g., credit reports, dispute letters, responses from Equifax ]. I believe Equifax has violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by failing to provide accurate information and documentation, and I request that the CFPB take appropriate action to address these violations.

Complaint narrative:
I have diligently followed all the necessary procedures in disputing these accounts. I've reached out to the bank and they assured me the issue was resolved. I've also contacted law enforcement and provided a report and affidavit, which they confirmed as valid. Additionally, I've engaged with XXXX and XXXX, who complied with legal requirements and removed the accounts. However, Equifax seems to be presenting obstacles, claiming I haven't completed all the necessary steps. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

XXXX and XXXX have already removed these accounts from their records. There was an error present & they were able to find it. I'm confused about how you've verified it while the other bureaus have removed it. Please delete these from my file. It is inaccurate, erroneous, incomplete, or unverifiable. 

I respectfully request that you promptly investigate this matter and take the necessary steps to remove the remaining fraudulent accounts from my credit report. Failure to do so not only perpetuates an injustice against me but also exposes your bureau to potential legal repercussions for non-compliance with federal regulations.

Complaint narrative:
Three of my negative accounts were reported on my Experian report, all having been disputed multiple times, and each time, Experian 's result of investigating was " Meets FCRA Requirements, '' followed by the statement " Discharged in Bankruptcy. '' Worse, these accounts have remained under this status for over a year, which, if true, Experian would be committing unlawful actions by having an account " Discharged in Bankruptcy '' on the credit report, and second concludes clearly if even under CFPB complaint, the investigative procedures relied upon were so lacking as not just to reaffirm the negative account, but to worsen the account under " Discharged in Bankruptcy, '' then it speaks to why further, after my filing identity theft and fraud reports, and complaints, Experian has 11 of my accounts negative, with XXXX having XXXX, and XXXX one. The purpose of FCRA regulations and citations under identity theft and fraud was based on " non-reliance to subjectivity '' ; instead, CFRA gives clear and strong directives on how a CRA, or " Furnisher, '' must lawfully act. Now, the same CRA who stated " Meets FCRA Requirements '' as a response to " investigating '' disputes by further saying, " Discharged in Bankruptcy. '' is foregoing CFRA guidelines, not blocking these accounts. I must now file another FTC, CFPB report, and complaint separately.

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX of XXXX  I came into the XXXX bank in XXXX, MI to close my deceased Dads accounts. I was told by the manager he could not help me even though I have the executed will, order for assignment for the funds and death certificate for my father. I paid the burial charges for him and have the award for the reimbursement of these charges by the court. Which according to MI a small estate under the amount of {$15000.00} is not required to file for probate. The accounts are much less than that. In speaking with a lawyer in Michigan it was confirmed that all that is needed is the court ordered petition for assignment to be able to receive the funds from the bank. The manager took the documents to make a copy for legal and said there was nothing they could do unless there was probate for the estate, which is not true. Travel to Michigan was not inexpensive and I will not be going there any time soon so this is very frustrating. The manager was very unhelpful and refused to try to contact the legal department to confirm this information.
