Complaint:
I am writing to express my gratitude for taking action to remove some of the fraudulent accounts from my credit report. However, my appreciation is overshadowed by deep frustration and distress over the incomplete resolution of my identity theft dispute. 

While I am thankful for the steps that have been taken, it is disheartening that not all of the accounts I am disputing have been addressed. This incomplete action leaves me in a state of uncertainty and distress, as my financial stability and peace of mind continue to be compromised. 

I urge your bureau to recognize the importance of finishing the work you have started. It is essential that all the fraudulent accounts that have been reported are thoroughly investigated and removed promptly. Piecemeal resolution only prolongs the anguish I have endured as a victim of identity theft. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I implore you to expedite the process and ensure that all the accounts in question are thoroughly investigated and resolved within the shortest possible timeframe. This matter requires your full attention and diligence to bring it to a satisfactory conclusion. 

I expect a written acknowledgment of this dispute letter and a commitment to completing the resolution of my identity theft claims promptly. The law mandates a timely response, and I insist that your bureau fulfils these legal obligations without further delay.
