You have reached the internet support group and unfortunately we cannot help you directly with this matter. The following procedure should however help you to resolve your difficulty.
If there is information contained in your Equifax credit report that you believe is in error or requires updating, you must first obtain your own current copy of this document (you cannot dispute information supplied directly by us to a credit grantor or other third party, or information on a credit report which is more than 30 days old). If you need to obtain a copy of your credit report please read section 1 and then section 2. If you already have a current copy of your credit report please proceed directly to section 2.

If you reside in an Affiliate owned area in the place of a confirmation number you will receive a telephone number for that Affiliate office to initiate an investigation. The on-line investigation feature is unavailable to consumers residing in Affiliate owned areas because the Affiliate office cannot process investigations via the Internet at this time.
