Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Personal information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: DC

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern : I recently reviewed my Equifax credit report, and I noticed a lot of my personal information is still not accurately represented on the credit report and I am in fear of my identity being compromised. I have previously brought this concern of personal identifiable information inaccuracies to your company in XXXX XXXX  ( US CERTIFIED MAIL Receipt # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). 
Your company has a lawful responsibility to follow all provisions within the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Not reporting the correct personal identifiable information is a clear violation of provision 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ).

I am writing to you, once again, to update my personal information immediately or I will exercise my right seek lawful remedies for correction of inaccuracies on my consumer report up to {$1000.00} per violation for Equifaxs negligence to comply with duties imposed by the FCRA willful noncompliance.

Be advised, it is my complete understanding that 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) is a provision within the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which sets out the permissible purposes for which consumer credit information may be obtained and used by authorized parties. While the FCRA allows for the sharing of consumer credit information for certain purposes, it also includes provisions to protect consumer privacy and ensure that the information is accurate and up to date.

The right to privacy under 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) means that consumers have the right to control the use of their credit information and to know who has access to it. The FCRA requires that consumer credit information may only be accessed and used for specified purposes, such as for reviewing or collecting an account, for employment purposes, or with the consumer 's consent.

Additionally, the FCRA requires that consumer credit information be accurate and up-to-date and gives consumers the right to dispute inaccurate information and have it corrected. The law also requires that consumer reporting agencies take reasonable measures to ensure the security and confidentiality of consumer credit information.

In summary, the 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) right to privacy provides consumers with the ability to control how their credit information is used, and ensures that this information is accurate, up-to-date, and protected from unauthorized access or disclosure.

There is lawful a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy.

Complaint narrative:
While checking my credit reports, I noticed an account that was resolved with a creditor ( XXXX ), is reporting a balance that should not have been sent to collections.

Complaint narrative:
After enduring a lengthy and frustrating process, I demand that the Credit Reporting Agencies delete all fraudulent accounts and related information from my Credit File. It's astonishing how many times I have had to remind the Credit Bureaus that I was a victim of identity theft, and that the accounts in question are a direct result of that crime. I have repeatedly asked the Credit Bureaus to correct my Credit File by removing the disputed accounts, and have requested copies of proof of verification if they claim these accounts are mine. Despite my efforts, the Credit Bureaus have continuously failed to provide me with the documents I require. In addition to sending dispute letters and providing complete documents of proof of identity and Identity Theft Report from the FTC, I am submitting this CFPB Complaint to follow up on my previous complaint, and demand that the Credit Reporting Agencies take swift action and remove the disputed accounts from my Credit File before I am forced to take legal actions. Once again, I demand the following accounts be completely removed from my Credit File : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  If the Credit Bureaus insist that the disputed accounts were verified, they must provide me with copies of the documents I have requested.
