Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I called XXXX  and equifax approx 2 months ago regarding 2 accounts for student loan which are in collections. I notices years of data ( XXXX ) missing and reporting as no data found. Recently checked again to see the account balance updated and balance changed. There was no proof of verification, correction/ addition of missing data. And credit score dropped XXXX points. This a blatant violation of fair credit reporting act. 16us code 1692 g. Ironically, they both have the same exact reporting- misrepresentation on each account so I've attached only one set of pictures from equifax website

There are numerous of payday loan accounts that were taken out in my name however my signature was forged by my ex-husband. in our divorce decree it states that he was to take care of said accounts associated with payday loan accounts for which he had signed my name on the check, used my social security number and date of birth. He would use his cell number in the event loan companies contacted.

He also charged up a credit card in my name ( Barclays ) with out my knowledge. He changed contact, log in and password information so that i was not able to log in to account. As for the monthly statements, he would intercept the mail. i had no knowledge that card was being used. I never used the card ; this was suppose to be my emergency card. i am receiving constant phone calls from debt collectors, as well as being name in a law suit for Barclays Credit Card due to no payment, for which I did not use. My credit rating has been driven down making it impossible to be able to get credit cards for emergencies. My father has had to put my name on his cards as an authorized user. Was unable to be approved for a loan to finance my A/C unit at home. if needed i am able to provide copies of payday loan checks where he signed my name.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024 I logged into my account at XXXX.experian.com and found that I could not cancel my basic account online. The site stated I needed to cancel by calling their customer service number. I called, and after being prompted by the automated menu, I asked to " cancel account ''. The automated support asked me to choose a language in order to help me. After choosing it brought me back to the beginning of the menu. This continued in a loop and never progressed to a submenu option where I could cancel my account. I then asked for an agent and the automated support stated that I could only talk to an agent for " specific reasons ''. It did not provide menu options for which I would be able to speak to an agent, It only asked what reason I needed to speak to an agent for. I answered that it was to cancel my account. It looped me back to the main menu options again. Eventually the automated support stated it would not be able to help me and hung up the call. I called a few times and confirmed that the system gave the same result each time, that is it looped back to the main menu many times and provided no option to cancel the account and no option to talk to an agent in order to cancel the account.
