Legal Basis for Dispute Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( c ), only permissible purposes may warrant hard inquiries on a consumer report. These inquiries do not align with my credit application history, nor did I grant any creditor the necessary authorization. Additionally, 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 states that a consumer reporting agency must block the reporting of any information resulting from identity theft or unauthorized actions within 4 business days of receiving notice.

Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : I have a right to privacy and confidentiality under 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( Section 602 A ), and these unauthorized hard inquiries are a violation of that right.

Under 15 U.S. Code 1681i, I have the right to dispute inaccurate or unauthorized entries, and the reporting agency must investigate and correct any errors.

Requested Action Please remove the listed inquiries from my credit report within 4 business days of receiving this notice. Failure to resolve this matter may lead to further claims for statutory damages for unauthorized entries on my report, as these hard inquiries impact my credit score and financial standing without my consent. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to confirmation of receipt of this dispute and the resolution of my credit report. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

I am distressed that you have included the information below in my credit profile and that you have failed to maintain reasonable procedure in your operations to assure maximum possible accuracy in the credit reports you publish. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be re-investigated.

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify, through the physical verification of the original sign consumer contact, any and all accounts that you post on a credit report. Otherwise anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent accounts.
