Complaint:
I am becoming more and more frustrated with your company. Upon finding these errors being reported on my credit report I have taken the necessary steps in order to inform you all of the errors. Nevertheless you all are not doing your part to resolve my issues. My family and I are becoming very impatient. My attorney told me to send this letter in order to alert you all of these errors before taking legal action. I am a person that goes to work everyday in order to make sure my family have equal opportunities just like everyone else. I am a consumer that refuses to be a victim of harassment or abuse.
