Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.

They rush me off the phone and are always really rude ... as if I am ridiculous for inquiring. I simply would like to have my refund. I am trying to buy a house and could really use this money.
