They do not accurately reflect my credit history or financial management, and dealing with this issue has been challenging.

Complaint narrative:
I am following up on my prior request for an investigation into the inaccuracies on my credit report, which I originally submitted in XX/XX/XXXX. To date, I have not received a response from your office, and the incorrect information remains, negatively impacting my credit. This inaction is both troubling and unacceptable. 

For your reference, please update and remove the late payments for the following accounts. 

- XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$210.00} Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$12000.00} Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX I kindly request that this matter will be promptly solve by EQUIFAX. 

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit bureaus are required to investigate disputes within 30 days of receiving a formal request. More than 30 days have passed, and I have yet to receive any resolution, confirmation of investigation, or update on this matter. The continued presence of this inaccurate information has severely impacted my creditworthiness and has caused denial of credit, increased interest rates, or emotional distress. This delay undermines the confidence I should have in the integrity and efficiency of the processes.

Complaint narrative:
Dear TransUnion Dispute Department, I am writing to formally demand immediate compliance with 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 ( a ) ( FCRA Section 605B ) regarding my request to block and permanently delete fraudulent accounts from my credit report. My original dispute letter was sent on XX/XX/2025, and your response dated XX/XX/2025, improperly denied my fraud block request. 

Legal Requirement Under FCRA Section 605B FCRA Section 605B clearly states : " A consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt of a request from the consumer to block such information. '' As per federal law, you were required to block and remove the fraudulent accounts within 4 business days of receiving my request. Your denial and subsequent investigation are improper and in direct violation of federal law. 

Challenging Your Improper Denial Your response states that my fraud block request was denied because the account history reflects prior payments, disputes, or ownership before the fraud was reported. However, these factors are irrelevant under FCRA Section 605B. Fraudulent accounts may have prior activity if identity theft was ongoing before being discovered. Your refusal to block these accounts violates my rights under federal law. 

Immediate Actions Required Block and delete the following fraudulent accounts from my credit file immediately : XXXX  XXXX XXXX ( Federal Student Loan ) Account # XXXX ( {$4700.00} ) Provide written confirmation that these accounts have been blocked and permanently removed from my credit report. 

Notice Before Filing CFPB Complaint & Legal Action Failure to comply with FCRA Section 605B is a willful violation of federal consumer protection laws. If you do not block and remove these accounts within 4 business days, I will take the following actions : File a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) for non-compliance with FCRA Section 605B.

File a complaint with my state Attorney Generals office for your failure to follow federal law regarding fraud blocking requests. 
Pursue legal action against TransUnion for violations of the FCRA, which allows statutory damages of up to {$1000.00} per violation, plus punitive damages and attorney fees.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am filling complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite, my submissions, Equifax consistently responds in 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing proof of a thorough investigation. According to, The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is a U.S. federal law that regulates how consumer credit information is collected, shared, and used. The FCRA is found in Title 15 of the United States Code, Section 1681 and aims to ensure fairness, accuracy, and privacy of consumer information in the credit reporting process.

Key provisions of the FCRA include : Accuracy of Information ( Section 1681e ( b ) ) : Consumer reporting agencies ( CRAs ) must maintain accurate and complete information. They are required to have procedures in place to ensure that credit reports are accurate, complete, and up to date.

Right to Dispute Inaccurate Information ( Section 1681i ) : Consumers have the right to dispute inaccurate or incomplete information on their credit reports. When a consumer disputes an item, the CRA must investigate the dispute within 30 days and correct or remove the disputed information if it's found to be inaccurate. 

The account that I have marked inaccurate : Acct XXXX XXXXXXXX
