Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I mailed a dispute letter to Equifax via USPS certified mail ( tracking # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ), requesting an investigation into inaccurate items on my credit report, as well as incorrect personal information. To assist Equifax in verifying my identity and address, I included a copy of my photo ID, social security card, and a recent bill with my current address.

Despite providing a copy of my photo ID, social security card, and recent bill with my current address to help Equifax verify my identity and address, I received a response from Equifax dated XX/XX/XXXX, stating that they were not able to locate my file. The documents they requested were already included in the dispute letter that I mailed to them. This response indicates a refusal to conduct an investigation into my disputed items.

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), if a consumer disputes the completeness or accuracy of any item of information in their file, the credit bureau must conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate. It appears that Equifax has violated my consumer rights by failing to conduct a reasonable investigation upon receipt of my dispute, as required by the FCRA.

Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.

Complaint narrative:
I have disputed this charge for over 2 years. 

Never received any documentation. The company tried to garnish my wages. I applied for an exemption and won because they did not show for court. A year later, they did it again. And again, it was dismissed because they did not show. They have no proof or evidence this debt is mine yet they keep trying to stonewall and bully me into paying by using the court system and threats of garnishments. This company also shows on my credit report as 3 Separate debts in different amounts. They are fraudlent and using illegal practices to collect.
