Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am rejecting this response because : The Credit Bureau recent response to my complaint regarding inaccuracies on my credit report. 

Despite my numerous attempts to dispute these erroneous accounts and rectify the situation, XXXX has failed to adequately address and resolve the issues at hand. 

Over the past several months, I have repeatedly contacted The Credit Bureau, providing detailed information and supporting documentation to demonstrate the inaccuracies present in my credit report. Unfortunately, each attempt has been met with insufficient action and a lack of proper investigation into the matters I raised. This ongoing negligence has caused significant harm to my creditworthiness and has had adverse effects on my financial well-being. 

I am now seeking the intervention and assistance of the CFPB to help resolve these persistent issues. The Credit Bureau failure to correct these inaccuracies and conduct a thorough investigation is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, they have breached my consumer rights to a fair and accurate credit report by not fulfilling their obligation to investigate disputes properly and correct any errors. 

The FCRA mandates that credit reporting agencies must investigate disputed information and make corrections if inaccuracies are found. 
The Credit Bureau continuous disregard for this responsibility has not only violated my rights but has also perpetuated the damages being done to me as a consumer. 

I trust that the CFPB will take appropriate action to ensure that The Credit Bureau adheres to the FCRAs requirements and conducts a comprehensive review of my disputes. I am seeking a resolution that includes the correction of all inaccuracies on my credit report and a guarantee that my consumer rights will be respected moving forward.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX Subject : Dispute of Inaccurate Bankruptcy Entry on Credit Report Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX, I am writing to dispute the inaccurate and damaging bankruptcy entry that is appearing on my credit report. XXXX is the only credit reporting agency that is publicly furnishing this information, and despite my repeated attempts to have it corrected, the error persists. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), I am entitled to have accurate information reported on my credit file. The inclusion of this bankruptcy entry is not only false but it is also negatively impacting my credit score and ability to obtain credit.

Furthermore, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) Section 809 ( b ), it is unlawful for a credit reporting agency to report inaccurate information that has not been verified. I have not been provided with any verification of this bankruptcy entry and therefore, it must be removed from my credit report immediately. 

I am requesting that XXXX investigate this matter and provide me with written confirmation of the removal of the inaccurate bankruptcy entry from my credit report. I also request that a corrected copy of my credit report be sent to me and any other entities that have received my credit information within the past six months. 

Please provide me with a written response within 30 days of receiving this letter confirming the removal of the inaccurate information. Failure to do so will result in further legal action being taken. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
My checking accounts were hacked in XXXX. My bank ensured that all the checks that were cut before the hack took place were paid. My credit score dropped over XXXX points and my XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card in particular went down to a {$250.00} available credit balance. I run a business and use my XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX a lot and this is a huge inconvenience ( especially when I didn't do anything wrong ). My credit report does not show that a missed payment was made to any of my credit card but for my XXXX XXXX, but I have handled this with XXXX directly. I'm more concerned about how I get my credit card back to the available credit I had before my credit was compromised. The bank and XXXX XXXX XXXX told me to reach out to the credit bureaus which is what I think I am doing by contacting you. Thank you and I appreciate any help you can assist with regarding this matter. XXXX XXXX.
