Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint due to the continued and unlawful reporting of inaccurate, incomplete, and unverifiable information on my consumer credit report by XXXX. Despite multiple prior disputes and the submission of verified documentationincluding an FTC Identity Theft Reportthis company has failed to conduct a lawful reinvestigation or correct/remove the disputed item in violation of federal law. Violations Involved : - FCRA 1681i failure to properly investigate disputed information within 30 days.

- FCRA 1681s-2 ( a ) continued reporting of information known or reasonably known to be inaccurate.

- Regulation V ( 12 CFR 1022.43 ) failure by furnisher to comply with direct dispute obligations.

This behavior is nearly identical to the misconduct referenced in prior CFPB complaints such as : - CFPB Complaint # XXXX resulted in non-monetary relief and correction of identity theft-related errors.

- CFPB Complaint # XXXX resulted in successful removal of unverifiable account data following a formal dispute.

Consumer Harm and Requested Relief : As a direct result of this companys ongoing violations, I have suffered : - Inaccurate credit reporting affecting creditworthiness and financial opportunities.

- Emotional distress and unnecessary time and effort to correct this issue. 
- Denials or unfavorable terms for financial products due to incorrect reporting.

Complaint narrative:
This letter serves as my third formal dispute and demand for correction regarding inaccurate personal information on my credit report, which remains unresolved despite two previous written communicationson XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. My correct and current personal information is : Full Name : XXXX XXXX Current Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX SSN : XXXX Date of Birth : XX/XX/XXXX In each of my prior letters, I included all required documentation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), including : A copy of my government-issued ID A utility bill verifying my current address A copy of my Social Security card Despite this, the inaccurate address remains on my report, and I have received no written response or evidence of a reinvestigation, which is a direct violation of your obligations under FCRA 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ). You are legally required to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation and respond within 30 days of receiving a dispute.

Additionally, continued reporting of inaccurate personal information violates the FCRA 's requirement to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of consumer data, as stated in FCRA 1681e ( b ).

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint to dispute an account on my credit report that I believe contains inaccurate and incomplete information. Although I have submitted multiple disputes, the issue remains unresolved, and there is no evidence that a proper or thorough investigation has been carried out. 

This ongoing problem has caused significant emotional stress and is now affecting my daily well-being. The lack of resolution has been both frustrating and discouraging. 

To be clear, this is a specific and valid dispute. I am not seeking automated responses or generic form letters. I personally prepared and submitted each dispute, along with the necessary identification and supporting documents to ensure proper handling. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, you are required to conduct a complete and good-faith reinvestigation of the disputed item, including all related fields, codes, and data elementsnot just the tradeline itself. 

Thank you for your time and prompt attention to this matter.
