Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

Complaint narrative:
I am failing 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 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, XXXX actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPBs recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB to action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, acting as a collection agency, placed a hold on both my checking and savings accounts for a total of {$6500.00} through a legal order ( XXXX XXXX ) for an alleged debt owed to their client, Discover Bank. The accompanying paperwork explicitly instructs not to contact the court regarding this matter. Upon further inquiry, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX admitted that Discover Bank has not yet transferred ownership of the debt to them.

Complaint narrative:
Your employees are not knowledgeable, they either provide me information or that just dont wan na do their job and its an ongoing issue that this bank demonstrates constantly. Theres a lot of incompetence coming from your employees. Hes just one more example.

I requested the 1099 for the business and personal accounts I had where I received a bonus, per your website your bank issues 1099 for that however, when I see my inquiry, XXXX from your customer advocate team contact me indicating that your bank does not which contradicts with your website after she pulled me over for several minutes. She said she needs to do a little more digging asked this rep to email me the influence instead of calling me because Im not always available on the phone. I work on the phones you reps dont have any considerations whatsoever of customers time, including this rep.

No need that by the time that is taking me to fix this issue and the length of time that your bank doesnt come up with the correct answers is outrageous.

Provide the following 1099 for both accounts personal and checking provide dates that both accounts closed exact dates, please And provide info on why you reps dont listen to customers why does the rep still chooses to call me instead of emailing me when I told her several times not to call me to email me instead she said she could email me so why hasnt she? 
If this info request is not provided on your response, I will make sure to send several other complaints and forward those complaint to the board of directors, including the CEO. I see how your bank previously dont address all issues. Discussed on previous complaints.

Complaint narrative:
Dispute of Inaccurate Information on Credit Report Dear Experian, I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information on my credit report that I believe harms my financial well-being. I am aware of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and request a thorough investigation into these inaccuracies, as federal law requires. 
Recently, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau filed a lawsuit against Experian for its failure to properly investigate consumer disputes, citing sham investigations and other unlawful practices. These practices, as outlined by the CFPB, include : Conducting inadequate investigations that fail to address consumer disputes properly. Reinserting previously disputed and inaccurate information without explanation. Failing to notify consumers about investigation results effectively. 
These allegations highlight systemic issues that directly undermine consumer protections and perpetuate the inclusion of inaccurate information on credit reports. I am deeply concerned that my dispute may be mishandled in a similar manner.
