Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I have disputed two hard inquiries on my Equifax credit report : ( 1 ) Inquiry Date : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( 2 ) Inquiry Date : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I have contacted Equifax a total of 3 times for the purpose of disputing these inquiries, as I have never had any contact with these two businesses or given them permission to make hard inquiries on my credit files. 

I first contacted Equifax on XX/XX/XXXX by filing an electronic dispute. Equifax completed this " investigation '' within 7 days with their determination being that the inquiries was valid and would remain on my credit report. I then wrote to Equifax on XX/XX/XXXX requesting that they provide documentation to support this, but never received any response or confirmation that my information was received. Finally, I filed a second electronic dispute of these two hard inquiries on XX/XX/XXXX. This time Equifax claimed to have finished their " investigation '' in less than 24 hours with the result being the same as the first dispute. 

As I have stated, I have never had any contact with these businesses and these hard inquiries should be deleted from my credit report immediately. I previously requested that Equifax provide me with proof that these companies were given the proper authorization to conduct these hard inquiries, by providing a signed contract or other supporting documentation. Equifax has failed to do so. 

Furthermore I believe that Equifax has failed to conduct reasonable investigations into this matter in violation of the FCRA and US Code 1681i.

I am aware that it is your responsibility to keep correct records on all of my credit accounts. 

Please review the following : Account Name : XXXX  Account Number : XXXX  These collections contain erroneous data, such as account status, date opened, balance, payment status, and last reported. A person shall not provide 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 erroneous, according to 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2.

After you have finished my request, send me a copy of my credit report reflecting these changes.
