Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
Equifax uses bogus information in their questioner to identify users for accessing their online file and has for many years. The claimed accounts and amounts they use as questioners have nothing to go with the account holders in question. ( Example : never had student loans or car loans ) Mine, my wife, friends and family have all confirmed this bogus questioning for years. 
They deny online access and demand jeopardizing ones personal identity by requiring personal information sent through a antedated ground mail system that losses mail or is easily pilfered for information. 
I have even went through the call in process and was given the same bogus varication questions that had nothing to do with my file now or ever. Only to be told to follow the written process sending in documents. 
In short they are denying peoples free online credit report by requiring answers to questions that aren't in the persons credit report or even related to the person in order to force people to mail in copies of government documents and personal paperwork. At this stage they will still deny the report asking for even more copies of government documents and personal paperwork delaying the access to ones credit report by weeks, months or by needs.

Complaint narrative:

The following dispute is in regards to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) in the amount of {$830.00} ( XXXX ) The monitor was purchased on XX/XX/2021 and delivered by XXXX on XX/XX/2021 under tracking number XXXX. Despite best efforts to try to cancel the shipment prior to delivery, and leaving a note to refuse the package, the package was unfortunately still delivered without my consent. When reaching out for XXXX XXXX to return the package, due to the shipping mishandling, they refused to provide an XXXX and shipping label to send the device back. They claimed that regardless of the scenario, the 'buyer ' is responsible for return shipping costs. However, XXXX XXXX neglected to state that the buyer was ever responsible for return shipping costs, which would have amounted to over {$200.00} to their XXXX location. Their terms of service ( attached ) and website do not state that the buyer is responsible for return shipping costs, even when the company itself is at fault.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
You didn't really have my issue as one of your options. I have basic and general complaint against XXXX. These credit agencies are terrible companies. They don't do anything to help consumers. They have only screwed me. They don't raise my credit score even if I have 0 collections reported, 100 % payment history. They don't share how they calculate my score yet they use it to allow banks and credit cards to XXXX me on interest rate. My score doesn't go higher with positive actions but if I use a credit card my score goes down substantially. It is a disgrace that banks use this unequal measure to legally discriminate against non rich people. They should be illegal. They really are only in collusion with banks and lenders and the XXXX of consumers. How can the consumer protection bureau allow these companies to XXXX over hard working americans by allowing banks to use a score that is so partial and non objective it is scary. Then they charge me to have access to my own information! How in the heck can that be right? I can get one free report a year? Why not any time I want. It's such a shame they make millions probably billions from my information then charge me for it. How about use some of that money they make and help people get out of debt?

Complaint narrative:
I am struggling to get inaccurate inquires removed off of my credit report. I have disputed two inaccurate inquires with XXXX via certified letter, but the company responded and said the inquires were verified. It was recommended that I reach out to the creditors who did the inquires directly. I called the companies that were reporting which are XXXX XXXX and US bank, and I was told by their employees that I needed to dispute the information directly with the credit reporting agency. Since I had already done this, I called XXXX to tell them what the two banks said. The XXXX representative was apologetic about the inaccurate information, but still referred me back to the other two companies. I was told that I needed to call the companies and request a deletion letter and once that arrived to mail that letter to XXXX. My concerns are that this process is inconvenient and causing me stress and hindering me from being able to access consumer credit because there are other companies that are denying me credit due to how many inquires I currently have. I have been disputing this information since XXXX. It is now XXXX, and I am still being given the run around. I dont understand why getting inaccurate information off of my credit report is so difficult.
