Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute several accounts on my credit report that contain inaccurate and unverified information. As a result of these errors, my credit score has been significantly impacted, making it difficult for me to obtain financing or credit when needed. 

I have made multiple attempts to address these inaccuracies with the creditors and the credit reporting agencies, but they have failed to correct the errors. Therefore, I am now escalating this matter to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to help enforce my legal rights and protect my credit. 

One particular account I want to highlight is the XXXX XXXX account, which was closed in 2017. According to my credit report, it was charged off and has since been sent to a collections agency. However, to the best of my knowledge, this account was never paid late, and I have not received any notice of it being sent to collections. This reporting is completely inaccurate and is ruining my credit. I demand that you update this account and delete the inaccurate information immediately. 

Another account that I dispute is the XXXX XXXX account. This account has been reported as unpaid, despite my records showing that it was paid in full and closed years ago. This incorrect reporting is damaging my credit, and I demand that you update this account and delete the inaccurate information immediately. 

In addition to these accounts, I dispute several others that I have no recollection of even belonging to me, such as the XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX accounts. I demand that you remove these frivolous accounts immediately from my credit report. 

Furthermore, there are several unauthorized inquiries on my credit report, such as XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I demand that you remove these inquiries from my credit report as they have reached the statute of limitations and were not authorized by me. 

Finally, I want to share a personal story of how these inaccuracies have affected my life. Due to the inaccurate reporting on my credit report, I have been denied credit and financing opportunities that I needed to take care of my family and business. This has caused me a great deal of emotional and financial stress, and I am at my wit 's end with the constant battle to get these errors corrected. 

Therefore, I demand that you take immediate action to update and delete the inaccurate information on my credit report, specifically for the accounts mentioned above. I am prepared to pursue legal action if necessary to enforce my legal rights and protect my credit. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
