Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am very upset with Equifax as I have submitted multiple disputes ( my most recent one including a FTC report and a copy of my Florida drivers license ) and they have all been turned away by Equifax. I have reported fraudulent inquires not made by me over 4 times to Equifax. They sent me a letter saying " INQUIRIES ARE A FACTUAL RECORD OF FILE ACCESS AND WILL REMAIN ON THE EQUIFAX CREDIT FILE TWO YEARS FROM THE REPORTED DATE OF THE INQUIRY. '' I have submitted multiple documents to prove these inquires were not mine and they refuse to listen.

Company: MORGAN STANLEY & CO. LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I opened XXXX accounts with E*Trade/Morgan Stanley, one was a brokerage account and the other was a checking account. I attempted to deposit funds into both accounts via their mobile deposit feature on the app. The checking account had {$2400.00} deposited into it, with no issue. However, the next day, when logging in to the app to check the availability of my funds, I was informed that they were taking precautions to ensure my account 's safety. I was given a number to call and hours to call them. I have called them almost every day since, and I have been given XXXX explanation or reason why it this " safety measure '' is in place, no matter who I speak to. I am simply told they don't have any information for me, and to call back tomorrow. It has been weeks now, the deposits have cleared, and I have no access to my money. I can not transfer to another account, I can not close my E*Trade account, I can not use the money to purchase stocks, and even if i could, my E*trade brokerage account is still frozen as well, which I have taken up with XXXX. I do not understand how they can just take {$2400.00} from me and give no answers or reasoning. If I did that to them, I would be considered a XXXX This is assinine, and shows a complete disregard for their customers. This economy is not the best environment to just take thousands of dollars from a XXXX year-old man and tell me to " just call back ''. When I don't have my prescriptions or am unable to go to a Dr. 's office due to lack of funds, I guess then I won't be able to call back. Great plan, XXXX

I have items passed on that should be taken out or blocked. Per FCRA segment 605, Credit Bureaus are expected to eliminate any records recorded on an ID THEFT REPORT.
