THE FOLLOWING FIELDS HAVE BEEN MODIFIED : SCHEDULED PAYMENT, DATE OF MAJOR 1ST DELIQUENCY REPORTED, ACCOUNT HISTORY. Equifax did not update all information and lied about doing so. As evidenced by the copy of my Equifax credit report pulled on XX/XX/2022 ( attached ), Equifax did not update the scheduled payment, closed date or date opened as they claim they did. This alone is grounds for immediate removal from my credit report. Equifax is required under the FCRA to ensure all information they report is 100 % accurate. I have disputed this information multiple times with Equifax and they refuse to correct it, therefore, Equifax is required to remove it from my consumer credit report. Additionally, Equifax is reporting two more inaccuracies. Payment status currently states collections when the account is no longer in collection and has been paid in full by consolidation. Comments lists paid collection and fixed rate, however, it omits that this account has been disputed by consumer. Equifax must update this information. Equifaxs refusal to provide correct and complete information is causing me financial and emotional distress due to student Grad PLUS loan denials. If Equifax continues to report this inaccurate information without providing verification to me that it is correct, I will pursue legal action with a consumer protection attorney.
