Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: LA

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 XXXX. 

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: MA

Complaint narrative:
TransUnion is currently reporting multiple late payment entries on my credit file that I dispute as inaccurate, misleading, and in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). These accounts include several XXXX  and XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX accounts, along with a XXXX  XXXX XXXX account. Specifically, XXXX  ( Account # : XXXX ) appears twice with different opening XXXX and XXXXyet both reflect a {$0.00} balance and no past due amount, which logically contradicts the presence of any delinquency. Additionally, TransUnion is reporting multiple student loan accounts from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Accounts : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ) and a XXXX  XXXX XXXX account ( XXXX ) with derogatory payment histories despite the absence of any current past due balances or open collection status. If these accounts are paid, closed, or in deferment, their inclusion with negative payment notations is misleading, and unjustly damages my creditworthiness. The FCRA, under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), mandates that consumer reporting agencies like TransUnion must ensure maximum possible accuracy of reported information. Continuing to publish negative payment histories on accounts that show no delinquency or have been resolved violates this obligation. Furthermore, under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), once a consumer initiates a dispute, the agency must conduct a lawful reinvestigation, and if data can not be verified with original documentation, it must be deleted or corrected under 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ). I have not been provided with any original billing statements, payment ledgers, or validation proving the legitimacy or timing of the alleged delinquencies. Without full verification, these negative notations should not remain.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Personal information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Equifax is currently reporting an inaccurate and unauthorized address on my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NC XXXX. I dispute this entry as false and entirely unrelated to my personal history. I have never lived at this address, have no known association with it, and have not authorized any business, lender, or data furnisher to link it to my identity. Its presence on my credit report is both erroneous and alarming. 

My only legal and current address is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, AZ XXXX. Any other address currently associated with my Equifax credit file that is not this one is incorrect and should be removed immediately. The inclusion of the XXXX, NC address undermines the integrity of my credit profile and creates a serious risk of cross-file contamination, mistaken identity, and potentially even fraud. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), Equifax is required to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. Reporting an address that does not belong to mewithout validating it with source documentation or consumer confirmationclearly violates that standard. Furthermore, under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), once a consumer disputes an item, Equifax must conduct a reasonable reinvestigation and delete or correct any information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable.

Equifaxs failure to detect or remove this erroneous address indicates a breakdown in its data integrity procedures and imposes undue risk and harm on me as a consumer. This issue is not a harmless oversightan incorrect address can easily result in misassociation with accounts or inquiries that do not belong to me, potentially affecting credit decisions, identity verification, and even employment screenings.
