Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally dispute and request the removal of unauthorized hard inquiries listed on my credit report. These inquiries were made without my consent or authorization, and I have not applied for any credit or services associated with these inquiries. The unauthorized inquiries negatively impact my credit score and financial well-being. 

Here are the details of the unauthorized hard inquiries : I have not initiated any financial transactions or applications with the aforementioned creditor/company on the date mentioned. Therefore, I request a immediate removal from my credit report. 

Enclosed with this letter are copies of supporting documents that demonstrate that I did not initiate these inquiries. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to accurate and up-to-date information on my credit report. I believe that the inclusion of these unauthorized inquiries violates my rights under the FCRA. 

Please consider this letter as a formal dispute under the FCRA. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. 

Thank you for your cooperation in resolving this issue.

Company: ClearOne Advantage, LLC
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I entered into an agreement with ClearOne Advantage ( COA ) in XXXX. Nothing they've was guaranteed or true. For 53 months I've make ALL ON TIME PAYMENTS of {$970.00}. Initially it was 48 months and without notice it changed and then that tried to change it again. On each of the 4 accounts I entered into with COA they charged incredibly large fees were added to every account. None of the accounts were settled in a timely manner as promised. And to date all of the company 's are reporting negatively to the credit bureaus, which is costing me dearly with things like purchasing a car or getting a lone, etc. I filed a complaint with CFPB in XXXX, in which COA agreed to honor their contract for all the accounts. By the way they removed the contract from their site, luckily for me I downloaded it before they did it. To add insult to injury they did not honor their agreement and the last and largest amount owed. This company has sent me to collection ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ), in the amount of {$18000.00} they exact amount that COA agreed to pay, meaning they paid NOTHING to this company. This added to my credit scores to plummet even lower. Customer service is dishonest and misleading and of no help whatsoever. I had no idea this company was not reputable. I received the information from XXXX XXXX as a suggestion, thinking it would be reputable.

Complaint narrative:
Complaint Regarding Credit Report Inaccuracies Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a complaint regarding inaccurate information on my credit report. I have been actively disputing these inaccuracies with the credit bureaus, but they have failed to adequately investigate my claims or remove the incorrect information. In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I attached the PDF file below containing the list of items that have violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681. 

Credit Bureau stated everything was complete and accurate. But how is that possible if the open date, date of last activity and much more is incorrect. According to 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ), they are supposed to modify or delete accounts that aren't reporting correctly. 

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

I also believe that the credit bureaus have violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by failing to : 1. Investigate my disputes in a timely and reasonable manner : The credit bureaus have not provided a clear explanation for their decision not to remove the inaccurate information, and I believe their investigation was inadequate. 

2. Furnish accurate information to creditors : The inaccurate information on my credit report is harming my ability to obtain credit and other financial services. 

3. Follow the FCRA 's dispute resolution procedures : The credit bureaus have failed to comply with the timeframes and procedures outlined in the FCRA. 

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate my complaint and take the following actions : 1. Order the credit bureaus to remove the inaccurate information from my credit report. 

2. Require the credit bureaus to provide me with a copy of my updated credit report reflecting the changes. 

Enclosures : Copies of my credit reports Copies of my dispute letters Copies of any supporting documentation I provided to the credit bureaus

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Ive noticed that several deviations from mandatory reporting standards therefore the data in my report can not be accurate and complete! With that said, I deny your allegations and I challenge you to provide proof that you have the right to report this incomplete negative information on my credit report. 

Per 15 U.S.C 1681e Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.

According to 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) requires furnishers to : Furnish information concerning accounts or other relationships with a consumer that has integrity.

Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with a consumer that is accurate.

C - Conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes According to CRRG, in order to make a lawful report, you must follow the Metro 2 compliance standards.

Also as stated in the CRRG Any Deviation From These Standards Jeopardizes The Integrity of The Data. This means that any mistakes in reporting claims can make the information less accurate and it affects the accuracy of any federally regulated reports.

Therefore, I am invoking my rights to challenge these inaccurate and non-compliant items. Neglecting my demand will only prove that you DO NOT care about my rights as a consumer. Its NOT FAIR for you to report information that isnt confirmed to be ethical and meets the standards of certified reporting. Again, I am challenging these claims and asking for proof of the proper reporting standards.

You are violating my rights! I have listed the concerns about your reporting in this document. It's not complete and does not meet my standards according to law, you must certify all aspects of required FCRA/ Metro 2 compliance which is done truthfully, correctly ( in a timely manner ), completely AND accurately as well - or else I would have to escalate these issues to the CFPB , FTC and my Attorney General.

Moreover, regarding dispute Report Number : XXXX for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$10000.00} which was deemed fraudulent by Experian. Hence, Experian has also blocked/deleted from my credit report. Then why is Experian NOT consistent by deleting/blocking XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX for {$1400.00}?
