Complaint:
The items listed below are reported on my personal credit file and were found in my reports with 3 credit reporting agencies. These items were opened fraudulently. Ive informed all parties of the issue & provided the necessary documentation to support my claim. The credit reporting agency ( CRA ) & data furnisher ( DF ) are not complying with federal law in regard to identity theft. Additionally, the credit reporting agency & data furnisher have not provided me with any evidence of an open contract, signed contract, or any valid proof this was opened, authorized, or created by me. Since this is a strict violation of FCRA laws I need the items removed from my file.

Complaint:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to dispute the validation method used by your agency regarding a collection account that appears on my consumer report. The account in question is listed with XXXX ( XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  ) and is reported by XXXX, Experian, and XXXX under the account number XXXX. 

Upon reviewing the information on my consumer report, I have noticed inconsistencies regarding the validation and reporting of this collection account across all three credit reporting agencies. This dispute was validated and closed on XX/XX/2023 with verification documents mailed to me. How is that so? Please provide clarity on how an account that clearly reads not verified on my consumer report was validated.

Complaint:
Dear All, I'm writing this complaint concering the three credid bureaus because i believe that they dont use correct criteria or use information in a wrong way to calculate one 's credit score. 
In my case, I recently found out that my score dropped down XXXX to XXXX without any obvious reason. Indeed, looking at what has changed, I saw the following report : 1. Balance increased in one account by {$520.00}. This card statement balance is paid automatically every month. All my cards are paid automatically, every month. 
XXXX. Balance decreased by {$53.00} XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX ) Balance decreased by {$14000.00}. I paid off my auto loan ( XXXX XXXX ). 
Balance decreased by {$100.00} ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX. XXXX XXXX Account was closed. The only I know is that paid off my loan. I was not asked wheher to keep or not this account. 
After this, I'm trying to figure out what is wrong with my account and wonder why?!!! 
Am I punished because I have all my payments made on-time 100 %? 
Am I punished because I paid off my auto loan? 
Am I punished because I keep all credit usage below 8 %? 
Please, I would appreciate if the three bureaus investigate this issue and restore my credit score, which I believe it should be around XXXX. 

Thank you very much for your consideration. 
Kind Regards, XXXX XXXX

I am writing to dispute the inclusion of this bankruptcy on my credit report. The dates filed and reported, as well as the closing dates, do not align. This situation is highly concerning as I possess a letter from the court clearly stating that this bankruptcy should not be reported to you. Furthermore, the involvement of an unauthorized third party adds to the absurdity of this situation.
