Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: DE

Complaint narrative:
This is my 3rd attempt to get this matter resolved. I've submitted 3 previous complaints with the CFPB & you claim I'm submitting the information for someone else... I have no clue what in the world you're trying to accomplish by ignoring my request but it's just creating additional emotional & physical distress. Bureau ( s ) has failed to comply with Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I disputed information that was reported to my credit file held with Bureau ( s ). These accounts were opened fraudulently. I informed them of the issue & provided them with the required documents to block/remove the accounts via FCRA Section 605b . They have failed to block the accounts, additionally, they have failed to provide me with any legal contract to reflect I was the one who opened the accounts. I need the following accounts removed from my report ASAP.

Company: UPGRADE, INC.
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
I stayed at the XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, ut from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  due to a sewer backup in my condo. We stayed in rooms XXXX and XXXX and all room charges and pet deposits were to be paid by XXXX XXXX, who is contracted with XXXX to help with accommodations during the repair process. I was required to provide a credit card for " incidentals '' to be charged at checkout. When I checked out, I asked for a receipt and they couldn't give me one. When I saw that they had charged my credit card {$210.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, still during my stay, I called the hotel and they still couldn't provide me with any information. I contacted XXXX Corporate offices, and they couldn't get the hotel to respond to me and provide this information either, so my only recourse was to file a dispute with my credit card company. 

The hotel then told the CC dispute dept. that they had " tried to charge my card on XX/XX/XXXX but it had insufficient funds so they rebilled it on XX/XX/XXXX '' - they still didn't provide any documentation as to what those made up charges were actually for. The card company denied my dispute based on the information the hotel gave them. This is a blatant lie, because I was not staying at the hotel on the date they provided to the CC company.

After 3 different calls, including a supervisor, they said they could reopen the dispute, but that I needed to provide a receipt from the hotel, and there was no other documentation that would be acceptable, knowing full well I couldn't provide that information, because I didn't have it and the hotel refused to provide it. Essentially allowing the merchant to LIE to them about the charge, and siding with them, leaving me with no options but to pay over {$200.00} with no truthful explanation for the charge.

Complaint narrative:
When attempting to log into my account online which was set up when I bought my home 7 years ago the website said my information that I input did not match their accounts. When I called about it I found out that my birthday is incorrect on my account due to this mistake they are unable to verify my identity and refuse to help me. I asked to speak to a manager and was refused to escalate it multiple times. I was sent to multiple other people. The only thing that was done was a ticket put in to change my birthday and I was told to send in a picture of my ID and/or birth certificate. I spent over 90 minutes on the phone to rectify the issue with no resolution. I asked how this mistake could have happened, I was told they had no idea how it could have happened and did not see anywhere when it was updated.
