Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax for their failure to comply with the requirements outlined in Section 611 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ). On XX/XX/year>, I disputed the accuracy of several items on my credit report with Equifax as I believed them to be incorrect. Under Section 611 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Equifax is required to conduct a reasonable investigation and notify me of the results, including their method of verification, within 15 days of completing the investigation. However, to date, I have not received any notification regarding the method of verification used by Equifax. Failure to provide this information within the specified timeframe constitutes a clear violation of Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), which mandates that the credit bureau must notify the consumer of the method of verification.

Furthermore, since Equifax has not verified the disputed items in accordance with the law, I request that these accounts be immediately deleted from my credit report, as they remain unverified and potentially inaccurate. I respectfully ask that the CFPB intervene to ensure that Equifax complies with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and fulfills its legal obligations regarding consumer disputes. Additionally, I would like the unverified items to be removed from my credit report as mandated by law when verification is not properly provided. I appreciate your prompt attention to this complaint and look forward to a resolution. 

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Company: CCS Financial Services, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/scrub>/2024, I sent a formal letter to CREDIT COLLECTION SERVICE, requesting validation of a debt they claim I owe. This request included a timeline of up to 30 days for them to provide proof of the alleged debt. Its been more then 90 Days Despite this, they failed to respond within the given timeframe. 

After several follow-ups, they finally contacted me and informed me that they could not provide any form of validation other than a bill. I made it clear to them that a bill does not constitute proper validation of the debt, as it does not include any legally binding documentation, such as the original agreement or purchase contract that proves I agreed to and owe the alleged debt. 

Furthermore, the company admitted they do not have the required legal documentation to validate the debt, nor can they demonstrate that the debt is legitimately tied to me. However, they continue to inaccurately report this information on my credit report. When I requested a letter of deletion due to their inability to validate the debt, they refused. 

This situation has caused significant harm, as the inaccurate reporting of this unverified debt negatively impacts my credit. 

I request that the CFPB intervene in this matter to ensure that : XXXX. CCS provides valid documentation proving this debt is legitimate and associated with me. And that they can obtain this debt. 

XXXX. If they are unable to validate the debt, they immediately cease all collection efforts and request removal of the inaccurate reporting from my credit file with all credit bureaus. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I am attaching copies of my correspondence, including my original validation request, for your review. Please feel free to contact me if additional information or documentation is needed.
