I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding unauthorized hard inquiries that have appeared on my credit report. I have recently reviewed my credit report and noticed several hard inquiries from companies listed below that I did not authorize. 

- Company : XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/year>. 
- Company : XXXX XXXX. Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/year>. 
- Company : XXXX XXXX XXXX. Date of XXXX : XX/XX/year>.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( Procedure in case of disputed accuracy ), I have the right to dispute any information that I believe is inaccurate or incomplete. Since these inquiries were made without my consent, I believe they are in violation of the law, and I request that they be removed from my credit report. 

I urge you to investigate this matter and take appropriate action to eliminate these inquiries. These unauthorized hard inquiries negatively impact my credit score, and I am concerned about their effect on my financial well-being. 

Please inform me of the steps you will take to rectify this situation. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter.

The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information reported on my credit report concerning a charge-off. 

Below are the details of the account in question : Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Date of Charge-Off : XX/XX/2024 It has come to my attention that this charge-off is being reported repeatedly monthly, which is incorrect. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), negative information such as a charge-off should be reported only once, reflecting the date it was charged off. 

Under the FCRA, credit reporting agencies are required to ensure the accuracy of the information they provide ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). The continuous monthly reporting of this charge-off misrepresents my payment history and negatively impacts my credit score. Furthermore, the statute of limitations for reporting a charge-off is seven years from the date of the initial delinquency that led to the charge-off ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 4 ) ). Repeatedly reporting this charge-off as a new event each month does not reflect the statute of limitations and is therefore improper. 

I request an immediate investigation into this matter and the correction of my credit report by removing the repeated entries of the charge-off from my payment history. Please update my credit report accordingly and provide written confirmation of these corrections. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
