Equifax Fax Number — Fax Credit Disputes and Reports
Equifax is one of the three national credit bureaus, and it accepts faxed dispute letters, identity theft affidavits, fraud alert requests, and credit freeze or thaw paperwork. Because Equifax routes these documents through different teams, the fax number you need depends on what you're submitting, so contact Equifax for the dispute fax line that matches your case. A faxed dispute gives you a dated confirmation that the bureau received your letter, which helps if Equifax later misses the 30-day investigation window the Fair Credit Reporting Act allows.

Tip: Put your full name, the last four digits of your Social Security number, your date of birth, and current address on every page so Equifax can match the fax to your file. Many people fax the dispute and also send a copy by certified mail, since that combination creates two independent records of when the bureau received your documents. Keep the fax confirmation receipt with your dispute letter and any supporting paperwork in case you need to escalate to the CFPB later.
