I have submitted multiple formal dispute letters to Equifax Information Services LLC regarding inaccurate and unverifiable information on my credit report ( see attached copies ).

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am absolutely appalled that you continue to report these accounts as verified despite a complete lack of substantiated evidence from the data furnishers. How are you able to deem these accounts as verified when Equifax has already removed them from their reporting altogether? This inconsistency highlights the inadequacy and incompetence of your investigation process and demonstrates a complete disregard for the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that only accurate and verifiable information may be reported

I did not authorize these entities to access my credit file, and no written consent was ever given. Under 15 U.S.C 1681b of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, these inquiries are unlawful. I'm demanding demanding their immediate deletion. If TransUnion claims these inquiries are valid, provide the name, address, phone number, and a copy of the signed authorization per 15 U.S.C 1681i ( 7 ). This situation mirrors XXXX XXXX XXXX v. TransUnion, where the court found that failing to properly investigate and remove unauthorized inquiries violated the FRCA. I expect full compliance to avoid further legal escalation.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX RE : FORMAL NOTICE OF COMPLIANCE VIOLATION & DEMAND FOR IMMEDIATE DELETION UNDER FCRA & METRO 2 GUIDELINES To Whom It May Concern, This letter serves as a formal dispute pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 U.S. Code 1681i, and a demand for immediate deletion of inaccurate and unverifiable account information currently being reported on my credit file. 

Upon reviewing my credit report, I noticed that you continue to report adverse account information in relation to an account marked with a status of " XXXX '' ( presumably Collection/Charge-off ) dated from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. Not only is this entry factually inaccurate and in violation of the FCRA, but it also fails to conform to Metro 2 reporting standards and permissible compliance under the XXXX guidelines. 

Specifically, I dispute the accuracy, validity, and verifiability of this account. I previously exercised my rights under FCRA 611, and the furnisher has failed to properly verify the account with documented evidence as required under FCRA 623 ( b ) ( 1 ). Instead, you have continued to reinsert this account without proper notification as required under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ), constituting a serious breach of your legal obligations.

Furthermore, under Metro 2 compliance : Reporting a status of " C '' consecutively without a current verified open date or balance history is inconsistent with standardized credit furnishing protocols. 

Reporting of derogatory status with a disputed notation while maintaining derogatory data violates the XXXX CFPB guidance and results in systematic credit suppression and prejudice. 

You are now in receipt of this written dispute and must, under FCRA 1681i ( a ), conduct a reasonable investigation. If the information can not be verified with legally admissible documentation, it must be deleted from my file within 30 calendar days.

Failure to comply will result in immediate escalation, including but not limited to : Filing a complaint with the CFPB Formal notice to the FTC and your data furnishers Legal action for noncompliance, negligent reporting, and willful damages under FCRA 616 and 617 This letter serves as your final opportunity to remedy the reporting violations before further legal proceedings are pursued. 

Please confirm in writing that this account has been permanently deleted from all credit repositories under your control within 30 days of receipt.

Company: Checkr, Inc
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute with Checkr regarding an incorrect Social Security Number ( SSN ) that appeared on my background check. On XX/XX/year>, Checkr emailed me stating that the reinvestigation was completed and that a revised report was sent. However, after reviewing the updated report, I noticed that the SSN was still incorrect and does not match the number I submitted during the dispute. 

I contacted Checkr support multiple times asking if the SSN was corrected. They only gave generic responses and never confirmed if the correction was made. As of now, the inaccurate SSN remains on my background check report, which is affecting my ability to work.
