What DataX, Ltd. keeps on file

DataX, an Equifax company, is a specialty CRA that reports payday, installment, and other subprime lending history used by short-term lenders.

Because DataX, Ltd. is a specialty consumer reporting agency — not one of the big-three bureaus — most people never check it, so errors can sit unnoticed for years and quietly affect approvals. You have the same FCRA rights to see the file and dispute it.

How to dispute with DataX, Ltd. (step by step)

  1. Get your report so you can cite the exact item, account number, and reason it is wrong.
  2. Write a dispute letter identifying each inaccurate item and the specific inaccuracy (wrong balance, not mine, re-aged date, duplicate, etc.).
  3. Attach proof of identity (ID + proof of address) and any documents that support your dispute.
  4. Mail it certified with return receipt to the address above so you have proof of delivery.
  5. Track the 30-day clock from the delivery date — DataX, Ltd. must reinvestigate and respond, and delete anything it cannot verify.

Should you dispute by mail or online?

Online is faster, but a mailed, certified dispute creates a paper trail and legal proof of delivery that online submissions often lack. That evidence matters if DataX, Ltd. misses the 30-day FCRA deadline or verifies an item without a real investigation — it is the foundation for a method-of-verification demand or a CFPB complaint. Serious dispute strategies default to certified mail for this reason.

If DataX, Ltd. verifies the item anyway

  • Request the method of verification — ask exactly how the item was confirmed and who they contacted.
  • Dispute directly with the data furnisher (the creditor or collector that reported it).
  • File a CFPB complaint against DataX, Ltd. with your paper trail attached — this routes to a documented response and often triggers a more thorough re-investigation.

Know your rights

Under the FCRA, DataX, Ltd. must complete its reinvestigation within 30 days (45 in some cases), cannot reinsert deleted information without notifying you, and must give you a free copy of your file on request.
