A site that I found that has good info on credit stuff is http://www.creditreportrights.com. Lots of helpful people and good info in the forums. Even a form letter forum to help in in sending letters to the agencies and creditors. I even found a phone number for Equifax - 1-866-998-1966, though it may be the same as the one you have?

As for damages, eh, I'd try sending a few letters off before going through the hassle of the court system. A couple letters complaining about how your FCRA rights were violated should get your goal accomplished.

When you write, make sure you send it certified return reciept requested.
