Getting error regarding equals() comparator in JavaScript/NodeJS

I'm trying to .filter my array object to find out if the ids are equal or not to another object.

Initial JSON: --

var user = 
  {
   "requests" : [ 
    {
        "name" : "Test1",
        "id" : "590e6c94b2d6e52674992d16",
        "email" : "kram@kram.com",
        "user" : "test",
        "accepted" : false
    }, 
    {
        "name" : "Test2",
        "id" : "590e6c8bb2d6e52674992d15",
        "email" : "test@test.com",
        "user" : "_test",
        "accepted" : false
    }
   ]
  }

Compare initial JSON with this object: --

 var acceptOrdeny =  {
       "name" : "Test1",
       "id" : "590e6c94b2d6e52674992d16",
       "email" : "kram@kram.com",
       "user" : "test",
       "accepted" : false
    }

I'm using filter and .equals() comparator to find out if they are match or not. But I'm getting request.id.equals is not a function error.

user.requests = user.requests.filter(request => !(request.id.equals(acceptOrdeny.id)));

Can anyone pointout what's wrong with this? surely .equals() does exist?

var user = 
  {
   "requests" : [ 
    {
        "name" : "Test1",
        "id" : "590e6c94b2d6e52674992d16",
        "email" : "kram@kram.com",
        "user" : "test",
        "accepted" : false
    }, 
    {
        "name" : "Test2",
        "id" : "590e6c8bb2d6e52674992d15",
        "email" : "test@test.com",
        "user" : "_test",
        "accepted" : false
    }
   ]
  }
  
  var acceptOrdeny =  {
       "name" : "Test1",
       "id" : "590e6c94b2d6e52674992d16",
       "email" : "kram@kram.com",
       "user" : "test",
       "accepted" : false
    }
    
  user.requests = user.requests.filter(request => !(request.id.equals(acceptOrdeny.id)));
