Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this letter as a formal supplement to my original complaint filed with the CFPB against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This dispute pertains to the inaccurate reporting of a XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX across all three major credit bureaus. 
Despite my prior efforts to dispute this account as inaccurate, XXXX XXXX has failed to conduct a reasonable investigation as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681s? 2 and 1681i ). Their response falsely claims that no formal dispute was submitted, despite the fact that my communication clearly identified inaccuracies and requested a reinvestigation and correction of reporting errors. 
Additionally, the credit bureaus show inconsistent reporting of dispute remarks. While the account reflects that it was paid in full for less than the original balance, it continues to be reported as derogatory, with serious delinquencies that no longer apply. This has a significant negative impact on my credit profile and future financial opportunities. 
I am requesting that the CFPB take further action to ensure that XXXX XXXX : 1. Conducts a proper reinvestigation of the disputed account.

2. Updates or removes all inaccurate, outdated, or misleading information from all three credit bureaus.

3. Provides documentation verifying the account status or removes it entirely if verification can not be substantiated. 
This continued misreporting and mishandling of my dispute is a direct violation of federal law. I appreciate your attention and assistance in helping ensure my consumer rights are upheld.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing a late payment that is currently being reported on my credit report as " open '' or unresolved. This entry is inaccurate and misleading. I have either already resolved the payment, or I was never late as claimed. The continued reporting of this item as open and delinquent is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

This misreporting has negatively impacted my credit score and may hinder my ability to obtain credit or employment. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, as well as a correction or deletion of the inaccurate late payment record if it can not be verified.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint because fraudulent and unauthorized inquiries have been reported on my consumer credit report as a result of identity theft.

The FCRA mandates that such information be blocked within four ( 4 ) business days of receiving notice, yet these inquiries remain on my file.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute fraudulent information that appears on my Equifax credit report, pursuant to 15 U S C 1681c-2 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and to request that these unauthorized inquiries be blocked immediately. Enclosed is my Identity Theft Report from the Federal Trade Commission, which supports my claim of identity theft.

According to 15 U S C 1681c-2 , a credit reporting agency must block any information that a consumer identifies as the result of identity theft within four business days of receiving an identity theft report. Despite my repeated efforts to obtain a resolution through your bureau, no corrective action has been taken, and I continue to be severely harmed by this inaccurate reporting. 

The following hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and must be blocked and deleted from my credit report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX I have contacted the companies in question and requested original contracts or documentation with my personal authorization. Over 60 days have passed without any response. These inquiries were not verified or even reported by other bureaus, and yet Equifax continues to claim they are valid.

I am filing a complaint against Cash App ( Block , Inc. ) due to inadequate customer service and unfair practices, which violate the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). Specifically, Cash App failed to take timely and effective measures to prevent and address fraud on their platform, leaving my account vulnerable and unprotected.

Furthermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress for these violations.
