Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally file a complaint against XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax regarding inaccurate and misleading information on my credit reports. Despite my attempts to resolve these issues directly with the credit reporting agencies, I have been unable to obtain satisfactory results. 

The inaccuracies on my credit report include : 1. Non-mailable Addresses : There are additional non-mailable addresses listed on my credit report which are incorrect and misleading. 
2. Unauthorized Inquiries : I have received several inquiries on my report from which I did not benefit. These inquiries are adversely affecting my credit score.

3. Inaccurate Opened Dates : Certain accounts on my credit report are reporting incorrect opened dates.

4. Collections Reporting : I have collections listed on my credit report for which I never received a 1099-C form. According to the IRS, a collection is considered income and should not be reported on a consumer report if not properly documented.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) mandates that credit reporting agencies must ensure the accuracy and privacy of information included in consumer reports. Under the FCRA, specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., the following key definitions and provisions apply : 15 U.S.C. 1681a : Definitions and rules of construction.

15 U.S.C. 1681b : Permissible purposes of consumer reports.

15 U.S.C. 1681c : Requirements relating to information contained in consumer reports.

15 U.S.C. 1681d : Disclosure of investigative consumer reports.

15 U.S.C. 1681e : Compliance procedures.

15 U.S.C. 1681f : Disclosures to governmental agencies.

15 U.S.C. 1681g : Disclosure to consumers.

15 U.S.C. 1681h : Conditions and form of disclosure to consumers.

15 U.S.C. 1681i : Procedure in case of disputed accuracy.

Additionally, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( GLBA ) provides further consumer protections under 15 U.S.C. 6801-6805 : 15 U.S.C. 6801 : Protection of nonpublic personal information.

15 U.S.C. 6802 : Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information.

15 U.S.C. 6803 : Disclosure of institutions privacy policy.

15 U.S.C. 6804 : Rulemaking authority.

15 U.S.C. 6805 : Enforcement.

XXXX XXXX, and Equifax have failed to perform their duties as required under the FCRA and the GLBA by not conducting thorough investigations into the inaccuracies I have disputed. Their negligence in this matter is causing undue harm to my creditworthiness and financial well-being.

I request that the CFPB investigates these violations thoroughly and ensure that the credit reporting agencies correct the inaccuracies on my credit reports. I also request that they remove any unauthorized inquiries, incorrect opened dates, and collections that were improperly reported.

Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to a prompt and fair resolution.
