Equifax processes mailed credit‑report disputes at Equifax Information Services LLC, P.O. Box 740256, Atlanta, GA 30374‑0256 (Equifax dispute mailing address). Send a signed, dated letter with copies of any supporting documents; using certified mail with return receipt is strongly recommended.

After mailing, you can call Equifax consumer support at (866) 284‑0578 to confirm receipt or ask about next steps, which the next section will detail for faster results.

Include your full identifying information, a precise description of the disputed item, clear evidence, and a concise request for action to speed Equifax's response.

1. Your personal details - full name, current mailing address, Social Security number (or last four digits), and date of birth. Place these at the top so Equifax can locate your file quickly.
2. Exact dispute reference - list the creditor's name, account number, and the reporting date as it appears on your credit report. This pins the entry you are challenging.
3. Why it's wrong - write a brief explanation (e.g., 'payment made on 03/15/2024 was never reported') and cite the supporting document you will attach.
4. Supporting copies - attach clear photocopies of payment receipts, bank statements, cancelled checks, or police reports. Mark each page 'Copy' to avoid sending originals.
5. Requested outcome - ask Equivar to investigate, correct the entry, and send you an updated copy of your credit report. State: 'Please send the results in writing to the address below.'
6. Return envelope - include a self‑addressed stamped envelope. Equifax often processes mailed disputes faster when a reply envelope is provided.
7. Signature and contact - sign the letter and list a phone number(s) and email where you can be reached for follow‑up.

Legal mailing address

- use this for all court filings, subpoenas, or formal correspondence:

Atlanta, GA 30374

Phone: (877) 284‑2329 (Legal & Compliance)

Registered‑agent address

These two locations cover every scenario where you need to deliver a legal document to Equifax. For consumer‑related issues you already saw the main switchboard number in the 'equifax corporate address and main switchboard number' section; the same legal line can also field law‑enforcement requests. In the next section we'll show how to verify any Equifax phone number to avoid impersonator scams.

Equifax phone numbers are only valid if they match the official listings on the Equifax contact page; any deviation signals a potential impersonator scam.

1. Open the Equifax official contact page and note the listed numbers for your need - consumer support (877) 284-0010, fraud assistance (800) 525-6285, business inquiries (800) 527-0018.
2. Compare the number you were given with those exact digits; scammers often use similar area codes but change the last four numbers.
3. If the caller ID shows a different number, let the call end and dial the verified number yourself from the official list.
4. When you call, the representative will ask for your Equifax account reference, not your Social Security number or full credit‑card details - legitimate agents never request that information over the phone.
5. Record the call's time, the agent's name, and the exact number they used; cross‑reference with the official address section later in this article if you receive any mailed follow‑up.
