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. The last letter sent to Transunion was XX/XX/XXXX, but no response was ever received from them to date. Thus, their action has violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC Sections 1681i, which states that continued reports of the unverified information without any proof provided, within the time allowed by law, is not authorized. The following inquiries listed below are still reporting on my Credit Reports and need to delete immediately : XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX  Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX

Regardless of the multiple written requests, the unverified accounts listed below are still reporting on my credit report in violation of federal law.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
To start off my XXXX complaint, I would just like to ask CFPB one question... Why are you allowing credit reporting agencies to commit Federal violations of the law?? The first evidence that I will be submitting is from a actual report from CFPB that was released on XXXX XXXX and is on the actual consumerfinance.gov website. In the report by CFPB it states that " Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX together reported relief in response toless than 2 % of covered complaints, down from nearly 25 % of covered complaints in XXXX ''. Also it states that Equifax promised to investigate but failed to provide the outcomes of their investigations to the CFPB and instead stated that they would forward the complaints to their " dispute channel. '' Lastly it states that " Equifax most often promised to open investigations and send the results to the consumers at later dates, but it would fail to provide the CFPB with the outcomes of the investigations. '' You can find this particular article at https : //www.consumerfinance.gov/about-us/newsroom/cfpb-releases-report-detailing-consumer-complaint-response-deficiencies-of-the-big-three-credit-bureaus/ Now the reason for my complaint is that Equifax has failed to respond to my dispute letters that I sent XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I deposited my disputes via registered mail with the U.S postal service along with a return receipt. I know that Equifax received my XX/XX/XXXX letter because I did receive the return receipt which was signed off by someone at Equifax by the name XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The letters that I received from Equifax are soley only asking me to verify my identity and asking me to send in identity documentation. Each letter that I have sent them since XX/XX/XXXX all had a copy of my drivers license, SSC, and electricity bill so I don understand why they would need any documentation when they already have it. 

Federal law requires you to respond within 30days, yet you have failed to honestly respond to my letters. Failure to comply with these federal regulations by credit reporting agencies are investigated by the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( see 15 USC 41, et seq, ). I plan on filing a complaint with the attorney general, FTC and possibly small claims court if this issue isn't resolved soon. I will be attaching copies of my dispute letters I sent, Equifax letters asking for verification, my id, ssc, proof of address, Equifax return receipt and the CFPB report I mentioned.

Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes — 
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I was alerted that my social security number appeared on the dark web, so I immediately was able to place a fraud alert and freeze my credit on XXXX and XXXX. However, Experian only applied the fraud alert. When I tried to freeze my account, it gave me a message that I needed to mail all of my identifying information to a po box in Allen, TX. 

I tried calling them at XXXX several times, but I could not get past the automated operator. After I kept repeating representative, she hung up.

1. This violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act 2. By the time my information arrives in Texas, I can be compromised.

3. Why could they apply the fraud alert, but not the freeze when they both require the same information? The answer is that they sell a solution for {$24.00} per month so they want you to buy the service instead of following the process for which they are required.
