Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I just placed items for dispute on my transunion account. Within 5 minutes I receive an email and nothing was disputed. The only change to my transunion report was a updated consumer statement was added. They're supposed to actually investigate what I disputed and get back to me within 30 days, not 5 minutes.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
Equifax has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Equifax, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Equifax has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Equifax 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint against Equifax and XXXX XXXX ( formerly XXXX ) for engaging in fraudulent credit reporting, illegal reinsertion of a previously deleted account, false verification, and reaging of the account to manipulate credit reporting. 

This account was previously disputed and removed, yet it was later reinserted under a different name without proper notice or re-verification, violating FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ). Additionally, the furnisher has falsely verified this account multiple times without providing sufficient documentation, violating FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ). Each time I dispute, they change the account name, reopen a previously closed account, and alter the reporting date, which constitutes account reaging in violation of FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681c. 

These actions have caused significant financial harm and emotional distress.

I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed account, as Experian and Transunion 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer. 

XXXX XXXX should not be reflected on my credit report. See attached documentation where I sent Experian a certified letter and to date, they have not responded. Again, blatantly violating my consumer rights. Additionally, please see my most recent current monthly statements from XXXX, which prove I am an existing customer and have been for almost a decade. It is not possible for me to owe XXXX for a cell phone debt, yet I am a current customer and my most recent statement shows I do not have a past due balance. As a matter of fact, I pay my bill in full each month via auto draft. See attached statements. 

Transunion was sent a certified letter dispute as well in XX/XX/year>, regarding the inaccurate, unverifiable, negligent reporting of information. To date, Transunion has not provided me a response, yet they continue to report this inaccurate information which is harming my credit worthiness and integrity.
