Consumer Narrative
XX/XX/2022 I sent out a letter to the credit bureau Equifax asking them to investigate my account to make sure my account was XXXX XXXX accurate. They received my certified letter XX/XX/2022. Here is the tracking number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XX/XX/2022 is when I seen that my account status was updated.The credit bureaus said that my account was accurate I am very confused because my account has inaccurate account types, inaccurate date opened, inaccurate XXXX XXXX XXXX, inaccurate high credit, inaccurate last reporting, inaccurate comments, inaccurate date last active, inaccurate date of last payment. The documents will confirm the inaccurate things that are highlighted yellow. On XX/XX/2022 I reported the claim to cfbp and Equifax responded back XX/XX/2022 saying how they will fixed the issue. On XX/XX/2022 the investigation was complete on XX/XX/2022 they said everything is a XXXX XXXX accurate. I am very confused at this point because the same problems are still showing on the account inaccurate account types, inaccurate date opened, inaccurate XXXX XXXX XXXX, inaccurate high credit, inaccurate last reporting, inaccurate comments, inaccurate date last active, inaccurate date of last payment. Now all this cant be accurate the accounts appear to be furnished by the same creditor why reporting data different. It is your duty to ensure that all information reported is consistent and most importantly accurate and you have failed to do so.This is grounds for removal. They violated my rights under 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have right to privacy 15 U.S.C 1681 section 604A section 2. States a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions. Another thing is this issue has been on going with not type of result at all it has been damaging to my credit with inaccurate information.I have been trying to dispute many accounts with them for a while now and keep ending up with the same results with not having a proper investigation.I havent received my updated credit report in the mail either.
