Complaint:
To whom it may concern : Experian XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX The information you see above is my most current personal information per FCRA and Metro 2 compliance reporting standards. If what you have on file for me doesn't match what's listed, there are problems with either your records or those who provide them for verification purposes. My profile must be accurate and thorough in order to comply with FCRA and Metro 2 compliance regulations. You must furnish your information verification within a reasonable time frame and be able to evaluate and confirm all of the information in my credit report. 
Below is a summary of the data in which I am challenging : Summary of Inquiries being challenged in list form XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) - ( XXXX ) XX/XX/2021 Inquiries XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/2021 Experian This is not right! I received a credit report from you and there are some companies that I'm unfamiliar with. Looks like they put an inquiry on my file without me knowing, but this shouldn't be possible unless it's something approved by me first! U.S. Code 15 USC 1681e ( a ) Seg. 604 states that all users must have a permitted purpose under the Fair Reporting Act to obtain consumer reports. Please remove these inquiries or forward documentation proving they should be on my report. 
Sincerely, You are not following the rules. I have listed all of my rights in this document so that they can be met accordingly, but it appears you do not care about fulfilling your obligations under Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) or Metro 2 law XXXX XXXX XXXX Please send your written response to my address of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA XXXX I am aware that you have been sending out form letters in response to many of the disputes and challenges that consumers have submitted, regardless of the specific information that they have provided. This is illegal, as each dispute and challenge must be addressed individually and on its own merits.My letters were created using software that is available to everyone. If you don't process my letters, you are violating 15 U.S. Code 5 1681i. Keep in mind, you are not allowed to delay processing letters from consumers based on the assumption that help from a third party may be available. This is not a legal exception.I am the author of any letters you receive with my name on them. Either I or my advisors wrote them with my full knowledge and consent. I am aware that there is no law that says you need to provide a Power of Attorney in order to delay processing letters from a consumer.If you do not process my letters in a timely manner, I will consider it to be an intentional disregard of my rights as a consumer. I will then contact my lawyer to take legal action.
