I viewed my credit report from Equifax and was very upset to see incorrect information on my credit file. I had a XXXX XXXX acct where I was charged for an auto repair that was never done yet the auto mechanic would not give me back my vehicle without payment of which I used my XXXX XXXX card and immediately filed a dispute with them explaining what happened. The mechanic lied to them about the charge of which they told me I had to get another mechanic repair report of which was submitted. They refused to accept the report that the work was not done that was paid for and would not remove it. I continued to complain to them about it as they were sending me statements of which I had to pay even though I did not receive the auto repair that was charged for. So I told them I could no longer send payments for something I never received. My XXXX XXXX acct was eventually bought by XXXX XXXX. That hurt my credit history of which I then contacted the MN Attorney General for help. They were very good in helping me with this problem and were able to force XXXX XXXX to remove the derogatory information that was hurting me as I am in the middle of buying a home! To my shock I find out today that Equifax is still posting this plus they had an inquiry from XXXX that I never had any contact with yet it shows as an inquiry. Equifax said the XXXX XXXX information has not been updated since last year!!! I asked them why their information is n't current? They said it is up to the company 's to update information on customers accts. I filed a dispute today but am very upset that the credit reporting agency 's are not requiring monthly reporting for the public. I told them I have a letter I can fax them from the MN Atty General 's office where it states that XXXX XXXX agreed to remove this from my credit report. They said they would not accept the letter from the Atty General, they will only accept what XXXX XXXX sends them within 30 days. I do n't know what to do. I am in the middle of buying a home and this is only going to make things worse. Equifax does not have current, correct information for the consumers and something needs to be done to ensure the unsuspecting public is protected from having incorrect information as well as current information on their credit files/history. When companies buy debt from creditors they should be held to the same standard as credit card companies or anyone who extends credit. Please help me if you can! This is just not right! I have a letter from the MN Atty General Office as well as a letter from XXXX XXXX where they state they would remove this from my credit history. To date, that has NOT been done. Let me know if you want me to fax them to you since I ca n't seem to attach them to this complaint. Thank you!
