Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: DC

Complaint narrative:
I have been searching for a car loan for the past six months - each time I have authorized a car dealership, including XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, to pull my credit, it results in multiple - 4-6 inquiries on my credit report since they insist that each auto finance company needs to pull its own report. 

If this is not illegal, it should be as it is causing irreparable harm to consumers. Each inquiry deducts two points from an individuals credit report and my credit report has fluctuated as a result. 

Since last fall, I have had more than two dozen inquiries from auto finance companies although I have only authorized four inquiries. I am requesting that this arcane, burdensome practice be ended. Further, I would like the credit reporting companies, Equifax, XXXX  and XXXX XXXX, to remove these inquiries from auto finance companies as I have requested in writing. 
In addition, XXXX XXXX insisted that they needed to pull my credit - resulting in another four inquiries - even after I presented them with an approval for auto finance from a company, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, that they told me they are familiar with. They went further and said that even if I was paying cash for the vehicle and did not need financing, they still had to pull my credit report and insisted I authorized the inquiry before they would allow me to proceed further with the purchase. 

This should be illegal and is particularly deleterious to those of us who need to finance an auto purchase. Please end this practice immediately and instruct the credit reporting companies to treat multiple auto finance inquiries over several days as one, deducting just two points for auto finance reports pulled over 14 days ( if any ) rather than two per inquiry.

Complaint narrative:
Hi guys. I'm hoping you could help me with a little problem I'm having. I can't seem to get the credit bureaus to investigate an account I disputed through them. I sent them a letter over a month ago and I haven't seen any letters come back to me telling me if my account was deleted or verified. I've disputed things with them in the past about 4 to 5 years ago so I'm familiar with the process. None of my disputes in the past ever took this long so I'm really worried they are just ignoring me. 

The letters have the right address so I know it's not because I sent them to a wrong place. Can you make them investigate this for me please? This is the only collection account on my credit report and I don't owe it. Thank you for helping me with this.
