Consumer complaint received 2025-10-16 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
I had ordered an item from Amazon and paid with my synchrony Amazon credit card. I went to return this item due to the add not being truthful and the product quality.The item was returned to the facility on XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX. I was still being charged for this item on my credit account I disputed the charge as I no longer have the product and told Amazon that if they wanted to charge me and not refund me then they need to send the item back. So currently because of my claim being denied I have to pay for a product I no long have. Now my credit has gone down as well due to increase in my amount due.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
When reviewing my credit report, I discovered several hard inquiries that I never authorized. 
These inquiries do not correspond to any applications or credit requests that I made, and I believe they may have resulted from identity theft or misuse of my personal information. 
To protect myself and follow the proper legal process, I filed a Police Report ( Case No. XXXX ) documenting the unauthorized activity. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), once a valid identity-theft report is submitted, the credit bureau is legally required to block and delete any unauthorized information within four ( 4 ) business days.

This requirement is clearly established under FCRA Section 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ).

Despite providing my police report and full documentation, the unauthorized hard inquiries remain on my credit file.

Each inquiry represents access to my private credit data without permissible purpose, violating FCRA Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ).

The continued appearance of these inquiries has harmed my credit score and raised concerns about the security of my personal information.

It is unfair that I should suffer damage to my creditworthiness due to inquiries that I never authorized or initiated.

I have acted responsibly by filing a police report, gathering proof, and contacting the bureau directly.

However, no correction has been made, and I am now seeking the CFPBs intervention to ensure compliance with federal law and restoration of my consumer rights.
