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, Equifaxs 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. 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against them for similar violations.

State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint regarding a severe violation of my privacy and financial rights. I have reason to believe that XXXX XXXX and staff members at DOGE unlawfully gained access to my student loan records and other personally sensitive information, in direct violation of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA ). Furthermore, I have credible information that he subsequently disclosed this private data to staff members at DOGE without my knowledge or consent. 

I never authorized XXXX XXXX, his affiliates, or any entities under his control to access or share my student loan or personal financial information. The unauthorized disclosure of my educational records and financial details not only violates FERPA but also raises significant concerns regarding data privacy and security. 

Given the gravity of this breach, I demand an immediate investigation into : 1. How XXXX XXXX gained access to my student loan and personal financial information without my consent. 


2. Which institutions, loan servicers, or third parties were involved in the unauthorized disclosure.

3. Why my private data was provided to staff members at DOGE.

4. What corrective actions will be taken to hold responsible parties accountable and prevent further violations.

This violation has caused me significant distress, and I am deeply concerned about the potential misuse of my personal data. I urge the CFPB to take immediate action to protect my rights and ensure that my financial and educational records remain secure.

I am attaching any relevant documentation supporting my claim and am available to provide additional information as needed. Please confirm receipt of this complaint and provide a case reference number for tracking purposes.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this serious matter and look forward to your response.

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 each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them. ''
