Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint against Equifax for its willful violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 605 ( c ), concerning the removal of adverse information resulting from my status as a XXXX XXXX  survivor. Despite my submission of valid documentation and multiple attempts to have this harmful information removed from my credit report, Equifax has refused to comply with its clear legal obligation. 

As stipulated by the FCRA 605 ( c ) ( 1 ), no consumer reporting agency may furnish any adverse information regarding a consumer if it is the result of XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX. I have met every legal requirement necessary under this statute, including providing documentation as required by law under 605 ( c ) ( 2 ). The law is unambiguous : once a consumer provides such documentation, the credit reporting agency must remove the adverse information. This has been affirmed in Doe v. Equifax Information Services, LLC, 2020 U.S. Dist. XXXX XXXX, which emphasizes that non-compliance with 605 ( c ) constitutes a direct violation of the FCRA and subjects the reporting agency to legal consequences for damages under 1681n and 1681o of the FCRA for willful or negligent non-compliance.

Equifax refusal to act is not only a violation of federal law but also a blatant disregard of my rights as a survivor. This continued reporting of inaccurate and harmful information has caused substantial damage to my creditworthiness, in clear violation of the FCRA and its protections for survivors of XXXX XXXX. As a survivor, I should not continue to suffer the consequences of adverse information directly linked to the trafficking I endured. 

I am demanding immediate corrective action to remove this adverse information from my credit report and to ensure that Equifax complies fully with the FCRA 605 ( c ). Failure to do so will result in further legal action, as Equifax ongoing non-compliance constitutes willful negligence and opens the door for legal remedies, including statutory damages, actual damages, and attorney 's fees under the FCRA. 

Please provide confirmation of action and resolution on this matter promptly, as I expect this serious violation to be addressed without delay.

Subject : Request to Remove Unauthorized Hard Inquiry Dear [ BECU Customer Service/Specific Contact Name ], My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX and I am writing to address an issue regarding my credit report. I have been a member of BECU for the past two years, during which I have been diligently working to build my credit.

Last year, I applied for a secured credit card with a deposit of {$2000.00}.

However, during this conversation, a new credit card was applied for without my knowledge or consent, resulting in a hard inquiry on my credit report dated XX/XX/XXXX. 

I did not authorize this application, and I would like to formally request that this hard inquiry be removed from my credit report. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I appreciate your assistance and look forward to your prompt response.
