Not Equifax but here's a story about how another David once met his Goliath in Small Claims Court. I wish I could find an online citation to confirm the detail

Not Equifax but here's a story about how another David once met his Goliath in Small Claims Court. I wish I could find an online citation to confirm the details :-(
In the 1970's, financial conglomerate Transamerica owned a credit card brand, Diners Club I think. An ordinary citizen had a dispute with Diners Club and was getting nowhere.

That got their attention real quick because they needed clear title to the real estate for some finance shuffling.

Turns out it gets their attention pretty quick. > On June 3, Nyerges, two sheriff's deputies and a moving truck showed up at the local BofA branch. The deputies informed the manager that he could either pay the Nyerges' legal fees— $2,500—or the movers would start taking away the bank's furniture and cash. The manager, after conferring with his superiors, gave the deputies a check.
