Consumer complaint received 2025-01-20 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Equifax has failed to fulfill its legal obligations under the fair credit reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of dispute information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filled a lawsuit against Equifax, alleging systemic issues such as, failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnish, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Equifax has neither corrected or removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. Iam requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the dispute accounts, as Equifax inaction violates federal law and my right as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX I am to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPBs findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving user vulnerable to scams. The lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumers safety.

XXXX XXXX  You said Yeah I can not log into the app or be verified. I received an advance before but I cant get in now XXXX XXXX Business said Okay, are you getting an error screen? 

XXXX XXXX  You said I was before. Tried deleting account and trying again but that didn't work XXXX XXXX  Business said I do see the account was closed. Unfortunately we can not reopen closed accounts, so that probably why you aren't able to access anything now XXXX XXXX  You said Okay so what can I do to get an account again XXXX XXXX  Business said We wouldn't be able to open a new one with you due to system limitations XXXX XXXX  You said lol wait so your system was messing up and now you can't even open a new one? I can't imagine that's great for your user base in case of problems. What kind of software engineer creates a system that can't so that simple task? 

XXXX XXXX  You said do that* XXXX XXXX  You said I guess I will need to file a complaint with the CFPB. Not having access to my account and history is a problem. 

XXXX XXXX  Business said We do have a disclosure to inform customers of that. Unfortunately I'm not sure what the initial error actually was, but we wouldn't be able to open another account with you now XXXX XXXX  You said That's fine but not having access to my account and history is a problem for you. To not have work around or fix for that issue as a fintech company is a major issue, for you.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX consistently reponds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation. 
These are the accounts reported inaccurate.
