Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, Equifax consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C.

5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: DE

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I called Equifax and was told in so many words there is nothing they could do over phone and was directed to web site. Once I got to web site the website itself did not work. I repeatedly called and attempted to use web site to no avail. I also discovered that my information was compromised in the most recent equifax data breach and I still did not get any response or assistance. 
I'm constantly getting identity and other fraud alerts when I apply for credit. Also theirs missing and inaccurate info on my credit report. When I spoke to equifax they did not help me. My credit score comes up XXXX or unusually low also when creditors run my credit. I have spent/wasted hours or days on phone trying to get it fixed. This has costed me time, energy, and money. I have also been denied access to credit which is having a negative impact on my quality of life.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Diversified Adjustment Service, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against Diversified Adjustment Service , Inc. for inaccurately reporting a debt on my credit report. The debt in question originated from my mobile phone service with XXXX, which I had for many years. My account with XXXX was always in good standing and paid on time. 

In XXXX, I decided to transfer my phone number to my husband 's XXXX XXXX XXXX plan. I contacted XXXX to release my phone number and paid my last monthly statement in full. I received another invoice the following month, called XXXX, and was instructed to go to a store location and provide proof of my identification in order to have it resolved. I did this and was told by a store associate that I was " good to go '', assured that the billing would be resolved. Many months later, unbeknownst to me, XXXX had placed the illegitimate outstanding balance due into collections. 

It first showed up on my credit report under a collection agency called XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$210.00}. I sought resolution with XXXX and XXXX XXXX, but neither could or would void or validate the debt I was contesting. I did nothing more at the time, and in recent months, it was removed from my credit report. 

In the last month or so, and without ever having received any written notice or invoice/statements of intent to collect, Diversified Adjustment Service , Inc. is now reporting the debt on my credit report. 

On XXXX, I verified on the XXXX website that Diversified Adjustment Service , Inc. is not even licensed to do business in Texas, where I reside. This unlicensed activity further questions the legitimacy of their claim. 

The inaccurate reporting by Diversified Adjustment Service , Inc. has significantly damaged my credit score, causing severe financial hardships. The inaccurate reporting by XXXX XXXX XXXX is doubling the negative impact of the debt to me and has significantly damaged my credit score, causing me severe financial hardships, specifically : - Affected my chances of getting a job in the financial industry which aligns with my profession.

- Limited my ability to purchase a home and car.

- Made it difficult to rent property as my applications frequently get turned down. 
- Prevented me from getting credit card approvals and from securing financial lines of credit - I can not even get approved for a debt consolidation loan to pay the original creditor off! 
- Forced me to pay higher interest rates than I would have if my credit score were not so low. 
- Caused me to pay higher insurance premiums and be required to put down deposits for utility services and cell phone contracts- Dealing with these financial difficulties and the consequences of poor credit have led to significant stress and anxiety, affecting my overall well-being.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Capital One regarding the deceptive practices related to their 360 high yield interest credit accounts. Capital One misrepresented the 360 Credit account as having one of the nations highest interest rates, yet failed to notify accountholders about the superior rates offered by the 360 XXXX XXXX account. This deliberate obscurity and lack of transparency violated consumer trust and resulted in significant financial losses for many, breaching the Consumer Financial Protection Act and the Truth in Savings Act. I seek redress for the misleading practices and failure to fulfill their advertised promises.

I want the CFPB to publish this description on consumerfinance.gov so that others can learn from my experience. The CFPB will take steps to remove my per
sonal information from this description but someone may still be able to identify me.
