I'm planning to do this (small claims court). When I looked into it a year ago I did not have confirmation that Equifax did business in the juristiction, which was a requirent. My previous employer (I'm still on their payroll as a part time employee) recently notified me that they are now participating in Equifax's "The Work Number" so I'm going to request my data in a month or so as confirmation of Equifax operating in this jurisdiction. I plan to claim damages as the service cost of enhanced credit monitoring service in perpetuity, at least up to the limit of $6,500. Any thoughts on this approach? What did you declare as damages and what was the representatives rebuttal?
