Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Equifax refuses to remove an unauthorized account from my consumer report. They refuse to follow the fair credit reporting act. My rights are continually violated. Pursuant to 15 usc 1681i, they have not conducted a proper investigation. Instead, they allow the fraudulent creditor to make the decision of whether they want to delete the fraudulent account or keep reporting. 15 usc 1681i states that the credit reporting agency is required to conduct an investigation with consideration to the information I provide, and make an impartial decision. Equifax is not acting fairly towards me nor are they protecting my privacy.

Equifax is reporting two different credit scores as on XX/XX/2022. They are reporting a XXXX as well as a XXXX. This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Equifax recently lost a lawsuit for this same practice and continue to violate consumers with this illegal practice. Equifax is also allowing an unauthorized creditor to report two accounts with the same information, on to my credit report. This is another violation against my consumer rights. Equifax obtained no permissible purpose for these unauthorized accounts, and are allowing companies to pay them and cause harm to me and with no regards for my life or future.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, I called Equifax to submit a dispute. The Equifax employee took my information, listened to my dispute, then she put me on hold, and never came back to the phone call. Eventually my call was transferred to leave feedback as though the call was over. So I am writing to you and I wrote a dispute to Equifax on XX/XX/XXXX.I, the American consumer am alarmed at recent news reporting that Equifax provided inaccurate credit scores for potentially millions of consumers to numerous financial institutions relating to my credit applications. The report quotes one Equifax executive, who said, Initial analysis indicates that only a small number of them may have received a different credit decision, and the CEO saying, The impact is going to be quite small, not something thats meaningful to Equifax. Equifaxs latest egregious abuse of consumers and its leaderships teams efforts to downplay the harm is yet another example of harm caused by what is quickly becoming a recidivist bad actor, and I urge you to use the full extent of your authority to hold Equifax and its leadership accountable. This incident comes five years after Equifax announced one of the largest data breaches in the history of our country, exposing the personal information of more than 147 million individuals, including myself. These numbers are false, these errors have affected everybody including me. 

Furthermore, you the CFPB took another enforcement action against Equifax in XXXX  for violating several consumer financial protection laws for deceiving consumers about the value of the credit scores they sold, deceiving consumers into enrolling in subscription programs, and engaging in illegal advertising practices. They are still violating several CFPB laws. 
Based on Equifaxs initial actions in response to this matter, I am deeply concerned that I, the harmed consumer will be promptly identified, notified, or even made whole? Moreover, Equifaxs repeated violations of law that have also resulted in I, the consumer harm warrant a more robust enforcement action, instead of the typical regulatory fine that amounts to the cost of doing business.

Company: HYUNDAI CAPITAL AMERICA
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I never received a title from Hyundai when I paid off the car back on XX/XX/2019, so I decided to request a replacement title from the DMV. Hyundai was still listed as a lien holder for some reason and I asked Hyundai to send me a lien release for the vehicle I paid off back in XXXX. They said they'd send it to me, but I never received it. I requested it again, and the system shows that they've reviewed my request and sent the lien release to me by mail, but it's been months and I still don't have it. DMV records show that Hyundai still appears to have a lien hold on my car. 

First, Hyundai Motors was negligent in sending me the title they ought to have sent me when I paid off the car back in 2019, and second, they never sent the lien release they said they had sent me. Turns out I'm not the only one experiencing this from this company, as a quick search on the internet shows that there are numerous people who have the same issue with Hyundai as me ; not receiving the title or the lien release. 

I have a car that I own but can not operate because I need to renew the registration for the car, which I can not do because I need to do a smog check on the car, which I can not do because the car is registered in California but my car is currently in Pennsylvania. In order to do a proper smog check, I need to re-register my car in that state, which I can not do without the title that Hyundai never sent. I'll need the lien release from Hyundai to request a replacement title to register my car in the new state. I have no method of transportation at this point, and it's been this way for months and Hyundai simply does not care. This is outrageous.
