Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
We have been dealing with Equifax for over a month now when we found out that our sons Social security number is tied to someone elses name through them. He can not get a school loan, job or credit card because if they do a identity check through any credit bureau it flags as fraud/comes up that he doesnt exist and that his name is tied to another person. I called the SS office and there is nothing wrong on their end. Our sons number is fine according to their records. Equifax told us that we needed to fax over documentation ( license, SS card, cover letter etc ) to prove his identity and we would hear back in 5-10 days that it was rectified. Weve done that on XX/XX/XXXX and again on XX/XX/XXXX and they claim they never got it and/or their fax machine is broken. So we mailed it on XX/XX/XXXX and they said they never got it. We finally sent it certified mail on XX/XX/XXXX and they received it on XX/XX/XXXX and have records from the post office that they signed for it. They are still saying they didnt get it and that we need to send it again. They claim they have no email or any other way to receive it which I find totally unacceptable as it is XXXX. We have spoken to 12 people ( all overseas at a call center ), 4 supervisors, 2 who have hung up on us and have spent countless hours trying to rectify this for our son. They claim that they deal with an overload of documents and have no idea where they couldve gone 4 times???!!!! We have done EVERYTHING they have asked us to do. He can not do anything and is at their mercy. We do not know what to do next besides reporting them to the XXXX XXXX XXXX attorney general and seeking legal action. No one there knows what is going on and they keep reading from a script are are clueless and unhelpful. We are beyond angry and frustrated and do not know where to go from here. My sons whole financial aspect of life is being held up and affected by Equifax and they are continually giving us the run around. It is totally unacceptable.
