Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a compiaint against Equifax for failing to properiy 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, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C.

5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) 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.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite Zelle using numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and tracking these transactions was infeasible. The CFPBs findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers that has also allowed to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Complaint narrative:
This company IQ DATA XXXX is in clear violation of the **** for using my nonpublic personal information to contact nonaffiliated third parties or consumer reporting agencies and furnish an inaccurate collection account on my consumer report without providing full privacy disclosure to me before reporting this inaccurate collection account pursuant to ************. The company violated my right as a consumer to OPT OUT of this information being reported as per this section of the law. IQ DATA XXXX is attempting to collect an alleged debt of {$290.00} due to the alleged original creditor XXXX XXXX Apartment RESIDENTIAL which was clearly paid off with no balance ( see the account data in my attachments below ). The original account ending in XXXX furnished by *** XXXX is reporting paid off with {$0.00} balance and no late payments to the consumer reporting agencies. I do not have any agreement with IQ DATA XXXX with my signature on it, as they keep decreasing and increasing the alleged collection balance by {$7.00} every week, ( see my attachments below ), which is ABSURD and goes against **** rules and regulations. Their actions have caused my family and I severe damage to our livelihood as they are hurting my ability to obtain credit which they are liable for all actual damages caused. If IQ DATA XXXX does not remove this inaccurate collection account they furnished to the consumer reporting agencies on ( XXXX ) without my permission using my personal information immediately, I will be in pursuit of litigation, legal action for identity theft ( 18USC1028 ) and unfair debt collection practices ( 15USC1692f ). I filed a **** complaint on XXXX XXXX and they seem to think their company opinion matters over the *** they refuse to get in compliance with ( see their response below ).
