Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/27, I opened a myEquifax account with my ITIN number in order to access my credit report. Everything went okay and I was able to see my credit score + report on a monthly basis. 

The problem comes up when on XX/XX/27 I send a dispute on my profile information in order to get my ITIN number updated and replaced with my SSN that I recently got from the Social Security Administration. After almost a month, the response that I receive is that " THE WORKER ID DOCUMENT ( S ) PROVIDED CAN NOT BE USED TO UPDATE YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER. THE WORKER ID NUMBER IS ISSUED BY THE SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION FOR WORK PURPOSES ONLY. THIS NUMBER IS NOT ISSUED BY THE SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION AS A SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER. THE WORKER ID NUMBER IS NOT ISSUED BY THE SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION AS A SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER AND CAN NOT BE ADDED TO YOUR EQUIFAX CREDIT FILE. '' How come can my SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER that has been issued by the SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION be as per them a " Worker ID Number Only '' what is this nonsense?. Now, just because my SSN has restrictions due to my immigration status does that means that I will be denied access to MY OWN credit report? I don't think that is any fair, and just like me there's plenty of individuals in the same situation that should be fixed and addresses by EQUIFAX, there's no excuses to say that my SSN is not valid as I can perfectly see my credit score and credit report with the other credit bureaus, I didn't have any problem updating my SSN on my bank account nor on my credit union.

There were many phone numbers, my phone number is XXXX XXXX XXXX, which was provided. Addresses that are so old or Ive never lived. My address is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX TX XXXX. Also old employers. 

Under FCRA, I am entitled to have only the information that pertains to me currently on my report. I wouldnt be able to receive mail on any of those other addresses therefore it should be removed. 

The report came back as resolved XXXX min later where they changed my address to a former, and kept XXXX old addresses. I cant receive mail on those addresses as they were years ago. 

In addition, Trans Union is abusing my file by bypassing the security freeze I have on it with regularity by pulling my report if not everyday, several times per week so that there are many inquiries that show up under Trans Union. 

I want them to put the info that I submitted to them to correct my information. 

Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party.

I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
The late payments in question violate the provisions outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S. Code 1681a and 15 U.S. Code 1681b, which mandate accurate reporting of credit information and disclosure of permissible purposes for accessing credit reports. Additionally, the creditor 's actions may be in violation of 15 U.S. Code 1666b, which prohibits creditors from treating credit card payments as late under certain circumstances. 

Despite my attempts to rectify the situation directly with the creditor, the late payments remain on my credit report, causing undue financial harm and impeding my ability to access credit on fair terms. I am reporting this because I want to ensure compliance with federal regulations governing credit reporting and lending practices.
