Consumer complaint received 2024-01-23 00:00:00
Product: Debt collection — Other debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am SO DONE WITH YOUR BUREAU regarding the presence of inaccurate and fraudulent accounts on my credit report. I am certain that I do not owe these debts, and the circumstances surrounding these entries are deeply troubling. Despite updating my address with the creditors when I moved, the debtors quoted my old address when I contacted them. This discrepancy raises serious concerns about the accuracy of the information provided. I never received any notifications or correspondence regarding these debts, leaving me no time to dispute them. The impact of these fraudulent accounts on my credit report is not only financial but is also taking a toll on my mental, physical, and emotional well-being. I am distressed by the violation of federal laws, and I implore you to take immediate action in deleting these entries from ALL three credit reports.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
XXXX has been asked several times to remove the 2 negative accounts reporting by XXXX XXXX  as they are inaccurate for 2 reasons They are constantly reporting monthly these accounts as a charge off status when they are also claiming they have written the debt off which means they should not be reporting it as a charge off monthly if it has been written off and I have requested the cancelled debt form they are required to give for all written off debts of {$600.00} or more I also provided XXXX with court documentation showing that when I was taken to court by XXXX XXXXXXXX for the debts that the debts and case were dismissed by the courts and XXXX still refuses to remove those accounts from my report they continue to allow XXXX XXXXXXXX to " tell '' them that the reporting is valid even when I am " showing them '' through legal documentation that it is not. That is not fair to me as a consumer because as they continue to allow these accounts to stay on my report it is negatively impacting and preventing me from obtains credit based products due to this false reporting. I am requesting that they REMOVE those 2 accounts from my report immediately to solve this complaint as not doing so is in violation of the Fair credit reporting act. Last conversation with an XXXX representative after being hung up on twice and then directed to call another number that was not valid for XXXX was on XX/XX/ at XXXX cst. this is my 6th attempt in over 8 months to get these accounts removed from my credit report and they are still refusing and allowing untrue and unverified information from my report even after they have been provided court documented proof saying that the creditor didn't validate it, why would they if they want to continue to negatively impact my report I believe my reason for uploading proof is to prove that what they are reporting and continuing to validate is untrue and not valid.
