On XXXX  i sent a letter regarding the inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report. To this day over 30 days later I have not received any response. I feel like I've been taken advantage of and also being ignored. Section 611 ( a ), it's plainly stated that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives reasons to immediately remove these items from my credit report. It has been over 30 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress caused in this process. The credit Bureaus also violated 15 usc 1681 section 623 ( 9 ) ( b ) ( 2 ) The credit bureaus are supposed to complete all investigations before the expiration of the period under section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ).

I am writing to express my utmost concern and frustration regarding the numerous, persistent attempts I have made to remove fraudulent items from my account with Credit Bureaus. Despite my repeated efforts, the resolution of this matter has been elusive, causing me significant distress and financial hardship. 

I discovered unauthorized and fraudulent transactions on my account. Since then, I have diligently reported the issue to your customer service department on multiple occasions. Regrettably, each attempt to address the matter has been met with limited success, and the fraudulent items remain unresolved. 

I understand the gravity of handling fraud-related incidents and the importance of a thorough investigation. However, the lack of progress and effective communication throughout this process has left me feeling unsupported and vulnerable. 

I urgently request the following actions to be taken : Immediate and comprehensive investigation into the fraudulent items on my account. 
Transparent communication outlining the specific measures being taken to address and remove the fraudulent transactions. 
Swift removal of the fraudulent items and a comprehensive review of my account 's security to prevent any further unauthorized transactions. 
Given the urgency of this matter, I expect a resolution within the specified timeframe from the date of receipt of this letter. It is crucial that the necessary steps are taken promptly to rectify this situation and restore the security of my account.

If the issue persists without a satisfactory resolution, I may have no choice but to escalate this matter further, including involving relevant regulatory authorities and seeking legal counsel to protect my rights as a consumer. 

I trust that your organization takes matters of fraud seriously, and I urgently seek your immediate attention and action to address this critical concern. I am asking for your assistance to remove these fraudulent items in my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MO XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I had returned my XXXX XXXX XXXX at the end of XX/XX/XXXX, purchased a XXXX XXXX, and the remainder of the lease was paid in full. My obligation per my lease agreement was satisfied. The balance that was owed to XXXX was for excess Mileage and taxes. I received a Statement from XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, made 2 payments to XXXX. I called XXXX late XX/XX/XXXX or early XX/XX/XXXX to discuss payment options on XXXX. An agreement was made for me to pay {$1000.00} and the account would be closed. Which is what I did. There was Never a Late or Missed Payment. Equifax verified with XXXX that I never made a Late payment, and my Credit Report was updated to Reflect that. I received an updated Credit Report in the mail as well as seeing my Credit Report on my Online account. I thought what ever changes or updated Equifax would do, would generate everywhere. This did not happen.
