Company: Sterling Infosystems Inc.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Complaint Against Sterling Infosystems for Inconsistent Reporting and Potential FCRA Violations Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am submitting this complaint regarding Sterling Infosystems , Inc. ( also known as FADV ), concerning two background checks performed on me in early XXXX. 

Sterling produced two reports using the same identifying data and public record content : XX/XX/XXXX : Report # XXXX Result : XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : Report # XXXX Result : XXXX XXXX, triggering pre-adverse action No material information changed between the two screenings ; the criminal records referenced are identical and date back to a XXXX Arizona conviction under a previous name. I had previously raised concerns to Sterling executives regarding processing delays, and the downgrade in classification occurred shortly afterward. This raises concerns of retaliation and calls into question the procedures used to ensure maximum possible accuracy, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

I have submitted a formal dispute to Sterling, but given the seriousness of the inconsistencies and the adverse impact on my employment prospects, I am requesting a formal investigation by your agency into their practices.

I have attached both reports in question. I would appreciate your guidance on how to proceed and whether further documentation is needed. 

Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Equifax is continuing to report inaccurate, outdated, and misleading information on my credit reportinformation that I already disputed and clearly proved to be non-compliant with XXXX XXXX FCRA, and FDCPA standards. Despite this, Equifax falsely claimed the accounts were verified and even updated some of them without correcting the core violations. This proves they did not conduct a real investigation, which is the same misconduct they have already been fined for in the past. All of these same accounts, XXXX  have found inaccurate and deleted from my report. Equifax continues to violate my rights and report this inaccurate information. There is no way a thorough or lawful investigation occurred if the same errors and illegal data are still present. I am demanding immediate deletion, not another denial. I have clearly highlighted and pointed out all of the evidence in the ways of which Equifax in violation of my rights I also encourage you to reference complaints I am demanding the immediate and permanent deletion of all inaccurate accounts I previously disputed, including those reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX Equifax must cease reporting any item that violates XXXX XXXX compliance, FCRA, or FDCPA standards. I also demand a full explanation of their method of verification, including supporting documentation. If Equifax can not validate the accounts with actual contracts bearing my signature, they must be deleted immediately. This complaint should trigger enforcement action due to Equifaxs repeated failure to conduct real investigations reference my first CFPB complaint # XXXX and tell me how Equifax has done affair and complete investigation and verify this information, but the same inaccuracies are reporting from my initial complaint with the exception of a few that they actually investigated and removed. each one of these accounts was also disputed with XXXX, and they followed through after verifying the accounts were inaccurate and removed all of them.
