Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I have been disputing fraud ITEMS on my credit report. The items are not showing in dispute nor are they removed from my report. The bureaus seem to ignore the trend and let these fraudulent items affect my credit score. I have requested the investigation to be initiated and also verifiable proof to be submitted should the items claim to be mine. I have had ENOUGH! HOW MUCH DOCUMENTATION does it take to get SOMEONE to REALLY DO SOMETHING?? LOOK at the attachments! THIS IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE! You asked for Documentation and I have given it. AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN! This is my last option before I take this up with my lawyers and sue for full compensation and damages incurred. Please delete the items immediate.

Complaint narrative:
I have only ever used Venmo one time in XX/XX/2021. I paid my friend XXXX back for Thai food. I tried to use Venmo last year to send my sister money but found my account was suspended for violation of their acceptable use policy. I've been unable to load their acceptable use policy on any device, but I can't imagine I broke any rules. My only transaction was paid without issues. They refused to unsuspend my account last year, claiming I was in violation. I'm trying again but can't understand how I'm even supposed to get my account cleared. There are no instructions anywhere. I sent a generic help request for lack of a better path.
