Consumer Complaint: In early XXXX XXXX I sent a dispute to Equifax re a fraudulent charge to my XXXX account- which I voluntarily closed. Equifax did not investigate and never notified me of anything. Consequently, I submitted a Statement of Dispute to be included in my report. Equifax did not include it and did not respond to my request to include it. In short, Equifax has- in disregard to its legal responsibility o consumers- ignored all of my correspondence. By doing so, Equifax has caused my financial and reputational harm.
