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 submitted a request to Equifax Information Services LLC to remove several hard inquiries that I believe were made without my authorization. This is not the first time I have reached out with this request. I even sent a letter with identifying documents to verify my identity and confirm that I am the one submitting this dispute. Despite my efforts, Equifax confirmed the retention of these records, stating that they are a factual record of access to my credit file and will remain for two years. I disagree with this decision as I believe these inquiries negatively impact my credit score and were made without my proper consent.
