Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am filing a formal dispute regarding Equifaxs mishandling of my prior disputes and their failure to comply with the requirements of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). The CFPB 's recent lawsuit highlights systemic issues with Equifaxs handling of consumer disputes, which are directly relevant to my experience. 
I previously disputed the following information on my Equifax 's credit report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Despite submitting evidence to support my dispute, Equifax failed to conduct a proper investigation. Specifically : 1. Sham Investigations : Equifax failed to convey the full details and supporting documentation of my dispute to the data furnisher. Instead, they appear to have accepted the furnishers response without question, even though it contradicted the evidence I provided.

2. Failure to Provide Investigation Results : The response I received from Equifax vague, confusing, and did not provide specific details of their investigation or evidence supporting their decision.

Potential Improper Reinsertion of Inaccurate Information : I am concern Equifax may have improperly reinserted information I previously disputed and believed to be corrected.

Equifaxs actions appear to violate the following : FCRA 1681i ( a ) : Failure to conduct reasonable investigations of disputed information.

FCRA 1681i ( 5 ) ( B ) : Improper reinsertion of previously deleted information without proper notice.

CFPA Prohibitions : Engaging in unfair acts or practices by failing to ensure accurate investigations and providing misleading or ambiguous responses to consumers.

1. Reinvestigate the Disputed Information : Conduct a proper and thorough investigation of the disputed account and provide detailed results of your findings.

2. Remove Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information : If Equifax the furnisher can not verify the disputed account with evidence, delete it from my credit report immediately.

3. Provide Investigation Details : Share all documentation you used to verify the disputed account, including records from the data furnisher.

4. Ensure Compliance with the Law : Prevent improper reinsertion of any previously disputed or deleted information.

If Equifax can not provide adequate documentation or results of a legitimate investigation, I will escalate this matter further by filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and considering legal action under the FCRA and CFPA.

I look forward to receiving a response within 30 days, as required under the FCRA. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
