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: NC

Complaint narrative:
I see some items on my credit report that I dont know. It looks like someone might have stolen my identity because I didnt approve these accounts. Ive talked about this before, and now Im asking for these accounts to be taken off my report quickly. Having these accounts on my report is causing me stress. They dont show my real credit history or how I handle money, and its been hard dealing with this. If we cant fix this, Im ready to go to court to protect my rights and find a solution. These wrong items on my credit report are a big problem for me. Theyre stopping me from reaching important money goals, like buying a house and supporting my family. I hope we can fix this problem soon.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX is illegally using this charge off for tax benefits. 

Account in question : XXXX XXXX Re : Form 1099-C Cancellation of Debt I am writing to you regarding a matter of utmost concern regarding the inaccurate reporting of a charge-off on my credit report attributed to your agency. Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered a charge-off entry which, according to the IRS, constitutes debt that has been discharged and subsequently utilized for tax benefits by your agency. It has come to my attention that your agency has been unlawfully reporting this information on my credit report, while simultaneously attempting to collect on the debt or maintaining a charged-off status. 
As per the guidelines provided by the IRS, such actions amount to tax fraud, a serious offense which I am prepared to report should this matter not be rectified immediately. I hereby exercise my right to demand the immediate removal of this inaccurate information from my credit report. Additionally, I require you to provide me with a copy of the Form 1099-C related to this debt, to be sent to the address provided above or via email at your earliest convenience. 
XXXX XXXX It is evident that your agency has violated the maximum accuracy standards outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically under 15 USC 1681e ( b ). By reporting information that is demonstrably not 100 % accurate, your agency is in clear violation of federal law. Continuing to report this inaccurate information would only exacerbate the situation and would constitute willful violation of various provisions under 15 USC 1681s-2. 
Moreover, I have been directed by the IRS to file Form 3949A for illegal tax violations against your company in order to address this matter. I trust that neither you nor your Executive VP would desire to engage in legal proceedings over such blatant transgressions. 
I hereby demand that you take immediate action to notify ALL ( 3 ) credit bureaus to remove this erroneous information from my credit report without further delay. As I am attempting to settle this matter privately. 
Failure to comply with this immediate request will leave me with no choice but to pursue all available legal avenues to ensure my rights are upheld and justice is served.

Have repeatedly reported that company has lost financial information in disputes for past 12 months and have each time been ignored by credit reporting agency. If they looked they might find it very odd that the final charge off was XXXX after the original balance was XXXX and the account has been open since XX/XX/2020. The multitude of missing payments have Left an account costing more than the original balance and yet that didnt seem suspicious to agency. When given the correct amount that company attempted to hide they went in and added a new pay down amount from prior repossessions of vehicle ( that came after incorrectly posting payments ) even with the update the final balance did not change and they company still is asking for a incorrect Balance. Balance owed shows {$2600.00} before company manipulated data and attempted to delete information. Company has also ignore emails after asking for that to be the form of communication so to lying over the phone
