Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have submitted disputes to Equifax Credit Bureau regarding a false information in my report submitted by an XXXX company in Texas, XXXX XXXX. I submitted a similar complaint against XXXX Credit Bureau at CFPB ( ID XXXX ) and XXXX reinvestigated the issue and deleted the negative XXXX XXXX mark from my report ( attached ). here is details about the issue : XXXX energy all of the sudden flagged an old account with them as a charge off on XX/XX/XXXX - I closed that account on XXXX XXXX after paying my balance. I learned about the XXXX negative reporting from XXXX email alerts. I was never notified by mail or phone that I have a remaining balance with XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX itself or any collection agency after i closed my account on XXXX XXXX ( neither they submitted any info to the credit bureaus until XX/XX/XXXX ). I only received communications via email and phone from XXXX XXXX offering a bonus if I came back to them as a customer. I did not open an account with them again and i believe that is why i got the negative reporting all of the sudden on XXXX XXXX XXXX continued to report incorrect information about my account even after I submitted disputes to XXXX and Equifax. Equifax have failed to identify and fix the problem.

Complaint narrative:
Equifax is reporting information on me without a permissible purpose to do so. 15 U.S.C. 1681 The congress finds that the consumer reporting agencies ASSUMED a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit and other information on consumers which means they didn't have permission not did they not have permission they don't have my consent to furnish anything on me without my written instructions pursuant to 15 U.S.C 1681B it states that a consumer reporting agency MAY furnish ( doesn't man required ) in ACCORDANCE WITH THE WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS OF THE CONSUMER can you please have Equifax provide me the document where I gave them in written form giving them permission to furnish anything on my consumer report. I've never consented to the report in the first place. Also congress states that there is a need to insure that credit reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness and impartiality and a respect for consumer right to PRIVACY my privacy is being violated again also because not only is Equifax a credit reporting agency they are a financial institution as well meaning they also fall under the privacy laws of the Gramm-leach Bliley act 15 U.S.C 6801-6804 Equifax is furnishing on my report non public personal information which the definition of that term is personally identifiable financial information resulting from any transaction with the consumer or any service performed so that means balances, monthly payments, missed payments, charge offs, account numbers, social security numbers etc XXXX all falls in with financial information and needs to be deleted from my consumer report al of this makes Equifax civilly liable for willful noncompliance

Complaint narrative:
I have recently reviewed my credit report and score which have been affected by your company 's inaccurate reporting and scoring. 

I noticed some unauthorized inquiries on my credit report and under 15 USC 1681 a number 3. You guys assumed this role without permission not only that you did not have my consent. 

You guys did not respect my right to privacy which is under 15 USC 1681 a number 4.

You did not exercise your grave responsibility, you were unfair, and you were partial. I have already taken the liberty and filed an attorney general 's complaint. 

You never had a permissible purpose Under 1681 b number 2. 

I never instructed you guys to furnish this report and I never consented to this report in the first place. 

What I am demanding right now is that you guys delete all these inquiries off my report right now Inquires to be deleted are just below this sentence.

When I disputed the NORMAL route they considered it as VALID and meeting FCRA requirements and left this damaging account on my credit file. 

The fact that credit bureau 's took the creditors word for it that the debt was valid also holds them ACCOUNTABLE! 

I can take legal action against all parties that FAILED to do their DUE DILIGENCE AND verify my claims that the debt was inaccurate. 

Inaccurate includes open date, and date last active.

Complaint narrative:
In light of recent investigations brought upon Equifax, I find that my consumer file is being irresponsibly tampered with. Over the past few years, I have made several attempts to remind you of your duty Pursuant 15 USC 1681. It appears you're intentionally and willfully being neglectful in remedying my affairs. 15 USC 1681e ( b ) assures that I am due, promised accuracy in my report based on federal law. I am making another attempt to have these errors remedied on my consumer report. Credit file received on XX/XX/2022 contained 9 deletions which in essence is an admission of guilt using my credit file negligently, illegally and improperly.
