Equifax Information Services LLC XXXX Complaint Summary I am filing this complaint against TransUnion, Experian, and Equifax ( collectively, the Credit Reporting Agencies or CRAs ), as well as certain furnishers including XXXX, for systemic failures to conduct timely, reasonable, and lawful reinvestigations of disputed credit information, in direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), including 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), 1681i, 1681s-2, and 1681b. 

Despite multiple disputes concerning duplicate derogatory accounts, outdated charge-offs, unverifiable debts, unauthorized hard inquiries, and materially inaccurate personal identifying information, the CRAs have continued to report this information without proper verification, failed to delete unverifiable data, and failed to correct obvious inaccuracies within the statutory timeframe. 

These failures have caused me ongoing financial harm, including credit denials, higher interest rates, and interference with housing and financial opportunities. 

Failure to Conduct a Timely and Reasonable Reinvestigation ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) Under the FCRA, once a consumer disputes information, a CRA is required to : Conduct a reasonable reinvestigation Review and consider all information submitted Delete or correct information that can not be verified Complete the reinvestigation within the statutory timeframe The CRAs named herein have failed to meet these obligations. Instead, they have either : Verified information without competent evidence Allowed duplicate derogatory accounts to remain Continued reporting outdated or unverifiable charge-offs Failed to correct clearly inaccurate personal information This conduct constitutes willful and/or negligent noncompliance with the FCRA.
