Consumer complaint received 2022-08-09 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
This is the third time I have contacted your company and you have still failed to delete the disputed accounts your company could not verify. After this letter, be advised that I intend to pursue litigation for the damages your company has brought to me and my family. Based off the fact that your company has yet to forward any documents to me, show me any proof, and the fact that its already been 3 months so you have CLEARLY violated Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) and continue to show your blatant disregard for Federal Law. The Federal case law states that, Consumer Reporting Agencies bear grave responsibilities to ensure the accuracy of the accounts they report on and their responsibility must consist of something more than merely parroting information received from other sources. Thats all your company has been doing the past couple of months and it is against the law and clearly in violation of 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ). I also asked you to give me the name of the person in your company who verified the accuracy of these accounts but you ignored this request as well which is another violation of Federal Law! The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me ( Section 616 & 617 ) if you fail to comply with Federal Law. Just remember when we go to litigation and your company is required to produce these documents along with an affidavit swearing under oath that these are the true and correct documents that you used to verify the disputed accounts. So once again, please be advised that under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified. I request that you do this immediately, which I am sure you are already aware of. You failed to verify & validate all data for the following accounts, please remove IMMEDIATELY : Account Name : XXXX XXXXXXXX. Account Number : XXXX ; Account Name : XXXX  Account Number : XXXX ; and Account Name : U S DEPT OF ED, Account Number : XXXX ; U S DEPT OF ED, Account Number : XXXX ; U S DEPT OF ED, Account Number : XXXX ; XXXX, Account Number : XXXX ; XXXX, Account Number : XXXX ; XXXX, Account Number : XXXX Reason : pls verify and validate all data for this account, every notation, dates, and balances, whether reported or not and I would like to be provided proof the method for which you are verifying as well as the exact details that match because without exact matches this account must be removed immediately as per FCRA. On top of it, this is a collection account, and the collector needs to prove that this debt can survive collection, that they own this debt and the extent to which they can collect this debt and that all their details match the original creditor. Without it, must be removed.

Complaint narrative:
This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. Experian is failing to comply with FCRA Sections 605B and is also in breach of Sections 616 & 617 for willfully non-complying and neglecting to adhere to the rules and laws of the FCRA. I have submitted multiple complaints informing Experian that I was a victim of identity theft. Experian is failing to block or remove the accounts from my report. I filed a report on the FTC website, I specified how the identity theft took place, that I did not benefit or receive goods or services from the alleged accounts, I validated the identity theft with a federal law enforcement agency ( which they're claiming I haven't ), I submitted the identity theft reports, provided a report circle the fraudulent accounts, an affidavit from the FTC website & provide a photo ID for their records. Experian has claimed the accounts listed below have been verified and are accurate. I'm truly confused by their antics/tactics on how to report this issue but they are ignoring this dispute and failing to comply with the rules set forth in the FCRA. I need them to be held accountable & have the following accounts blocked/removed : XXXX  XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
