Consumer complaint received 2025-05-28 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing several accounts reported as charge-offs or collections across all three credit bureausTransUnion, XXXX XXXX XXXX  These items contain serious inaccuracies that are affecting my creditworthiness and financial wellbeing, and I am demanding a lawful reinvestigation in accordance with my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

TransUnion is currently reporting a charge-off from XXXX XXXX XXXX for account number ending in XXXX with a reported balance of {$1200.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX. In addition, XXXX XXXX is reporting an old derogatory item dated XX/XX/XXXX for account ending in XXXX, with a balance of {$0.00}. These accounts are not only outdated but also raise concerns regarding their verification and continued inclusion in my credit file. 

XXXX is reporting a collection from XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX under account number ending in XXXX, dated XX/XX/XXXX, with a balance of {$0.00}, which raises serious concerns as it serves no useful purpose in assessing my creditworthiness. Additionally, XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting an account with the same last XXXX digits ( XXXX ) as the XXXX XXXX. entry on TransUnion, but with a different creditor and a slightly lower balance of {$1200.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX. This discrepancy in creditor name and balance across bureaus indicates a failure to ensure consistency and accuracy under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). XXXX  is also reporting a collection from XXXX XXXX for account ending in XXXX, dated XX/XX/XXXX, with a balance of {$480.00}. These items are questionable in their accuracy and completeness. 

XXXX  is reporting a charge-off from XXXX XXXX ( same account ending in XXXX ) dated XX/XX/XXXX for {$0.00}. XXXX  is also reporting XXXX XXXX XXXX under the same account number ending in XXXX as reported by both TransUnion and XXXX, with the balance of {$1200.00}. The fact that the same account appears under different names and with differing balances is deeply troubling and suggests a systemic failure to conduct accurate investigations. 

As required by 15 U.S.C. 1681i, I am entitled to a reasonable and timely reinvestigation of these accounts. Additionally, as mandated by 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), each bureau must ensure that the information furnished is accurate and up to date. If these items can not be verified with original documentation from the furnishers, they must be deleted promptly. Furthermore, as these entries concern alleged debts, the reporting agencies and furnishers are obligated under 15 U.S.C. 1692g to provide documented validation, which I have not received to date.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year> there were fraudulent charges on my wisely account. There were a few from XXXX XXXXt of which were successfully dispute. Then there were XXXX transactions from XXXX pay transfers for {$300.00} ( {$600.00} total ) each and XXXX from XXXX for {$490.00}. Wisely sent out correspondence after the " investigation '' was complete but provided no information. I immediately contacted Wisely to tell them this information was inaccurate because I don't use these services/ companies and did not do these transactions. The representative told me to reopen the investigating through email which I will attach. After sending the email to reopen the investigation, I have not received any response and it has been about XXXX weeks now. I also contacted the name on the fraudulent transaction and XXXX cash told me last week that they have refunded their transaction of {$490.00} but it does not reflect on my account currently. XXXX cash stated that someone who i did not know had connected their account to mine and was sending money from my account to theirs so they had no problem refunding the stolen funds and dissolving the account. In addition, XXXX pay transfers stated in an email that the transactions ( XXXX {$300.00} ) for them were initiated through Wisely. XXXX pay told me I needed to go through Wisely to rectify the fraudulent charges but Wisely has not responded to my request to reopen the investigation due to their incomplete and inaccurate investigating. I would like to note that these transactions all have different states listed besides them on my transactions list and I was at work when I received a notification that a charge was declined which prompted me to check the account and notice fraudulent activity. I immediately reported it and locked the card and requested a new card. I also contacted wisely to get an address because I considered contacting lawyer but they refused to provide me with the investigation but was insisting on looking in my account of which I refused. The company is not honest and has some fraudulent activity within it so I did not want them tampering with my account. It was not normal to look at my account if I was just asking for an address anyway. None the less, when the provisionary credits for the transactions that were considered " valid '' were reversed the my {$180.00} that I had available to me in the account was no longer available to me. I'd like my money refunded to me.
