Dear CFPB, I am trying to resolve a credit reporting issue with Equifax concerning a negative item that appears on my Equifax report. This is a XXXX utility account that shows a balance and is being reported as a closed account and in collection. I spoke with a CS Rep. named XXXX, and regarding our conversation, this company refuses to verify the debt as due and owing by I, XXXX XXXX XXXX. It appears to be reporting as XXXX tradelines on Equifax. As noted on the report, this account is under dispute by consumer and reinvestigation is in progress. When a investigation of an account is in progress and a consumer is disputing an item on their reports, the CRA is to give the consumer whether via email, if preferred or in writing via regular mail, give a status update as to how long the investigation will take. I have not received any such accomodation from Equifax. As per the FCRA, the the CRA is reponsible for accurate reporting.
