Problems with Equifax still reporting a 7 years old ch XXXX Bankruptcy : XXXX and XXXX have deleted the item but Equifax continues toconfirm and renew reporting on this stale credit report Item. ( Twice ) It was only ever filed once. 
Federal law says it can be removed but Equifax continues to maintain reporting. 
I have disputed repeatedly but item only shows on Equifax and they will not cooperate. As of the latest dispute this is their response : We have reviewed the bankruptcy information. XXXX The results are : We have verified that this publicrecord item is reporting correctly. If you have additional questions about this item please contact : XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA XXXX Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX & gt ; & gt ; & gt ; We have reviewed the bankruptcy information. XXXX The results are : We have verified that this publicrecord item is reporting correctly. If you have additional questions about this item please contact : XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA XXXX Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX responded with the following - outlining regulations regarding fair credit reporting regarding 7+ year old Bankruptcys ( ch XXXX ) I am disturbed that you continue to list the dismissed bankruptcy as confirmed within my credit file. 
Although it is your policy to keep reporting bankruptcies that are filed, dismissed or adjudicated forten years, the Fair credit Reporting Act mentions nothing in Section 1681c relating to bankruptcyabout dismissals or filings. The law clearly states from " date of adjudication '' or date of " order ofrelief ''. 
Any case, civil or otherwise, which is dismissed no longer exists in the eye of the law and a case filedmay never have actually been adjudicated. Therefore, you have no right to maintain information whichthe government has deemed nonexistent. 
You are reporting this Item twice when it only existed once. 
Therefore, pursuant to Section 1681 ( a ) ( 5 ) of the FCRA, you must delete this information from my creditreport and send me an updated copy when this action is completed. 
Consumers have the right to pursue litigation against reporting agencies and collect damages forviolating the FCRA. 
I would like this removed- deleted from my Equifax report immediately. 
Thanks XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX
