Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I filed a complaint on XX/XX/2023 in reference to information that is not correct in Equifax 's records. I have an initial dispute # XXXX. In which they closed and I have asked them to reopen thru a letter sent. They have the wrong address, it is the previous address and they never updated to the new address, no matter how many times I tell them. They have not updated my credit report. XXXX and XXXX both have. If you call they can not identify me because their information is incorrect. I asked for my credit report and it is a wealth of misinformation. If I did not get my credit report thru an email, and they mailed it to my previous address... what would have happened? 
Loans and credit cards are not updated. Since I can not send personal information, I did not state which ones. School Loans have not been updated. 
Nothing is updated...
