Consumer complaint received 2023-05-03 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting 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 sent a letter last month to Equifax and also filed a CFPB complaint, but the account Tenant Track is still reporting on my credit report. Equifax replied that the account is not reporting on my account, but I have attached my credit report showing the account. Equifax has the name on the account as something different that may be the reason, they assume that it isn't reporting. If they conducted a real investigation, they would have known that the account is inaccurate. How can the bureaus report different information for the same account when all data furnished should be the same? The account has been paid, and I originally had an agreement with the original creditor to remove this account once paid. I am not in the business of credit, so I had no idea that my account was sold. This still does not give the company XXXX XXXX a right to ignore my requests. I sent a letter XX/XX/22 asking for the company to remove this account not only because of the original agreement, but because the amount on the collection is different than what the original creditor has. I also asked for validation but was not provided that information. This company also does not have a license in the state of Texas to collect any debt. They also do not have a legitimate website and so I am confused how the collection reporting agencies are allowing a company that is not verified to furnish data. There are many FDCPA and FCRA violations that I can go to small claims court and retrieve payment, but I am only asking for the removal of this paid account as of now. I do expect a response and deletion within 15 days since this is not my first time reaching out to the company. Please see the attached credit report showing the account that Equifax claims is not reporting.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX OPM data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.
