Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate and verify the accounts I have disputed as inaccurate on my credit report. Despite providing detailed information and evidence to support my disputes, Equifax continues to report inaccurate information without demonstrating that the information has been thoroughly reviewed or verified, as required under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i.

Equifax 's failure to comply with the FCRA is causing me significant harm, as these inaccuracies are negatively impacting my credit profile and financial well-being. Specifically : Equifax has failed to notify me of the methods used to verify the disputed accounts.

Equifax has not provided any proof from the furnishers of the disputed information to confirm its accuracy.

My disputes have been dismissed without proper reinvestigation, as required by law.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, Equifax consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protention Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation. These are the accounts I've marked as inaccurate : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Complaint narrative:
According to 15 USC 1681e ( b ) it states this ( b ) Accuracy of report whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. So I then asked them to provide me a description of the investigation according to 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ) : ( 7 ) Description of reinvestigation procedure a consumer reporting agency shall provide to a consumer a description referred to in paragraph ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) by not later than 15 days after receiving a request from the consumer for that description. But they did not do that as well either. They are also breaking these laws as well below According to 15 USC 1681 ( 5 ) it states this ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information ( A ) In general If, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall- ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation ; and ( ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or Deleted from the file of the customer.

According to 15 USC 1681s-2 it states this. ( A ) Reporting information with actual knowledge of errors a person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. ( B ) Reporting information after notice and confirmation of errors A person shall not furnish information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if- ( the person has been notified by the consumer, at the address specified by the person for such notices, that specific information is inaccurate; and ( ii ) the information is, in fact, inaccurate. This is unfair and if they are doing this to me imagine who else they are doing this too. Can You fix.
