Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my frustration and disappointment with the lack of progress in resolving the inaccuracies on my credit report. Despite my multiple attempts to dispute the errors and provide supporting documentation, the issues persist.

I initially had high hopes for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 's ( CFPB ) role in protecting consumers like myself from inaccurate, unfair, and biased reporting practices of large credit bureaus. However, my experiences have shown that these errors continue to plague my credit report, and I remain unsatisfied with the outcome.

1. Inconsistent information - The credit bureaus have provided conflicting information regarding the same accounts. This inconsistency raises questions about the reliability of the information and the process used to verify its accuracy.

2. Lack of correction - Despite my efforts to dispute these errors, the corrected information still reflects inaccurately on my credit report. The revisions made by the credit bureaus have not addressed the root causes of the problem, leaving me with incorrect information that continues to impact my credit score.

3. Personal information discrepancies - My personal information, including my name, address, and date of birth, appears incorrectly on some credit reports. This raises serious concerns about data management practices and the potential for identity theft.

4. Multiple attempts - This is my third attempt to request reinvestigation, and each time, the result has been the same - inconclusive and inadequate. The fact that different credit bureaus have different information further underscores the need for greater scrutiny and accountability in the credit reporting industry.

In light of these issues, I urge the CFPB to take a closer look at the practices of these credit bureaus and hold them accountable for the inaccuracies on my credit report.
