Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this formal complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding numerous unauthorized credit inquiries that have appeared on my credit report Equifax. I am the victim of identity theft, and I am requesting immediate investigation and action under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and other applicable laws. 
I recently reviewed my credit reports and found several hard inquiries that I did not authorize. These inquiries were made by financial institutions and companies with which I have no current or prior relationship. I have reason to believe that these inquiries are a direct result of identity theft. 
In accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I have filed an identity theft report, which includes a formal complaint and supporting documentation, such as a police report or an FTC Identity Theft Report. Under this statute, credit reporting agencies are required to block any information resulting from identity theft within four ( 4 ) business days of receiving proper documentation.

The following legal provisions have been violated in relation to these unauthorized credit inquiries : 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) Permissible Purpose : Credit inquiries must be made only with the consumers authorization or for a legitimate business purpose. These inquiries were made without my knowledge or consent. 
15 U.S.C. 1681c-1 ( a ) ( 2 ) Fraud Alerts : I have placed a fraud alert on my credit file, and creditors must take reasonable steps to verify identity before extending credit. These inquiries indicate a failure to comply.

15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 Blocking of information resulting from identity theft : The credit reporting agencies have failed to block or investigate the unauthorized inquiries despite being informed of the theft.

15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Duty to reinvestigate : The credit bureaus are obligated to conduct a reinvestigation upon notice of a dispute, which they have failed to do regarding these inquiries.

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute on XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX due fail to fix an error on my credit Experian denied to follow up with the investigation. I recently was notified that CFPB has filed a lawsuit against the company ( experian ). 
They alleged the company of accepting unreliable information, failure to notify consumer dispute results. This aligns well with my situation! Experian has not attempted to remove, nor correct any information. I'm requesting this derogatory remark be removed or corrected immediately as it's affecting my chances of getting a car Experian violates Experian my rights as a consumer, as well as federal laws.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
This is a continuation and follow-up regarding Complaint No. XXXX, which was recently closed without resolution. Please review all documents from this former complaint number. 

The response provided by Firstmark Services in Complaint No. XXXX contains multiple factual inaccuracies. Most notably, they falsely claimed I was not enrolled during the relevant period. I graduated from XXXX  Baptist University and have official enrollment records confirming my active student status throughout the timeframe in question. 

Firstmark also failed to properly apply payments and disregarded valid enrollment-based deferments, violating the terms outlined in my signed promissory notes and loan disclosures. Their response ignores these critical servicing errors and instead relies on demonstrably false assumptions. 

I am actively preparing a formal legal complaint and will be submitting supporting documentation. In the meantime, I respectfully request that the CFPB reopen or continue to monitor this matter, as the servicer has yet to offer a resolution that aligns with borrower protections or the documented facts. 

Thank you for your attention to this issue. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally demand your agency 's compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) in connection with the ongoing mishandling of my credit file. Despite multiple dispute attempts, you have failed to remove fraudulent accounts that do not belong to me and continue to report unverifiable information. 

This conduct is in direct violation of federal law and my consumer rights. The accounts listed below were opened fraudulently as a result of identity theft. I have submitted several dispute letters requesting their removal, yet you have responded with vague and non-substantive explanations that do not meet the legal standards required under the FCRA.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are legally obligated to perform a meaningful investigation upon receipt of a consumer dispute. Your continued reliance on form responses without providing original validation of the debts in question constitutes noncompliance.

Moreover, 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) mandates that consumer reporting agencies ensure the highest possible level of accuracy in reporting. Your agencys failure to take corrective action demonstrates a reckless disregard of these obligations.

You are hereby given 30 days from the date of this letter to provide the following : 1. Full and original verification documents from the creditors proving the validity of the accounts in questionnot generic responses ; 2. A comprehensive outline of the investigation performed, detailing each step taken ; 3. The names, job titles, and contact details of the individuals responsible for reviewing and responding to my dispute ; 4. Written confirmation that all unverifiable information has been permanently deleted from my credit file pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ). 

If you fail to respond adequately within the timeframe stated, I will pursue immediate legal action. This includes filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and the XXXX  State Attorney General. I will also proceed with litigation under 15 U.S.C. 1681n for willful noncompliance, which allows for the recovery of statutory damages, punitive damages, attorney fees, and costs. 

The following accounts are fraudulent, and I have already received confirmation from the relevant banks that they should not be associated with my credit profile. Please review and remove these accounts immediately, and provide supporting verification if you continue to report them : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

These accounts are being reported by XXXX, XXXX XXXX & XXXX and show multiple late payments ( 120, 150, and 180 days past due ) as well as past due balances, which I believe are being inaccurately or unfairly reported. 

The accounts in question are : Account 1 : - Loan Servicer : MOHELA - Balance : {$1800.00} - Past Due : {$130.00} as of XX/XX/year> - Reported Late Payments : 120, 150, 180 days past due ( XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/year> ) Account 2 : - Loan Servicer : MOHELA - Balance : {$3200.00} - Past Due : {$230.00} as of XX/XX/year> - Reported Late Payments : 90, 120, 150, 180 days past due ( XXXXXXXX XXXX  ) I am disputing the accuracy of these late payments and past-due statuses.

My complaint includes the following concerns : - I have not received sufficient communication or transparency from MOHELA regarding these claims. 
- These late payment marks have significantly impacted my credit standing and financial well-being. 
- I believe there may have been administrative or reporting errors that unfairly resulted in these derogatory marks.
