Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. 
Despite my submissions, Equifax consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. 
This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifaxs actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C.

5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPBs recent administrative proceeding ( File No. 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC

Complaint narrative:
My complaint is with New Rez Mortgage Company : For the past almost six years I have repeatedly requested monthly statements to be mailed and/or emailed to me. I have not received anything.

For the past almost six years I have repeatedly requested to speak to a technician because I am unable to log in to the website. 
In the past year I have emailed their so-called technical support division multiple times and have not received any response. 
The only way I can make payments is by telephone. 
I have complained repeatedly to New Rez but they refuse to do anything or send me anything that I request. 
Now they refuse to send my XXXX XXXX form and/or escrow statements in the mail and/or by email. I have received nothing from them since I first requested my XXXX in early XX/XX/XXXX. I have called at least XXXX times since early XXXX for my XXXX form. 
I have had to file an extension on my XXXX Taxes because I am still waiting for the XXXX form from them. 
My best friend also happens to have New Rez as his mortgage company and he too has exactly the same issue with them as I do. He has not received anything from New Rez at all in the mail or email. He is also too waiting on his XXXX XXXX form. 
I have been a client of New Rez for around 8 years, but in the past 6 years have had basically no service from them at all. None of my questions have been answered and none of my requests have been furnished. 
I would love to refinance with another mortgage company who actually takes care of their clients, but unfortunately am waiting for the interest rates to drop so I can afford to do so.
