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.

This is the letter i wrote to XXXX XXXX  and their customer service said this was the only way to get response and she promised within 30 days. It has been over 60 days still no response and they have put false information on credit report without informing me. The letter contains all the details below Subject : Urgent Complaint Regarding Unfair Charge-Off on Credit Report Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Full name : XXXX XXXX Account number : XXXX Vin number : XXXX Year, Make, Model : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ( XXXX  other other ) Cell : XXXX Email : XXXX My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern and frustration regarding a recent issue with my account that has significantly impacted my credit standing. 
I had a total loss incident with my vehicle covered by your gap services, and I promptly initiated a claim. Throughout the process, I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX multiple times to inquire about the status of the gap claim. Unfortunately, I was informed that the initial check was lost, and a new one would be reissued. 
Despite my repeated attempts to get updates, the gap claim took an unreasonably long period of 4-5 months to be processed. To my surprise, I later discovered that the gap coverage did not fully address the outstanding balance, leaving me with an unforeseen {$5000.00} owed.

What adds to my frustration is the lack of communication regarding this outstanding amount. Despite making approximately 10 calls to your customer service, I received assurances that the matter was still processing, with no mention of the outstanding balance. I was promised a call to notify me when the processing was complete, but regrettably, that call never came. 
To my utmost dismay, I recently discovered that XXXX XXXX XXXX has reported this as a charge-off on my credit report without any prior communication or notice. This not only adversely affects my credit score but also puts me in an unjust and challenging situation. 
I am seeking immediate resolution and request a thorough investigation into this matter. I insist on the removal of the wrongful charge-off from my credit report, as it was a result of a lack of communication and mismanagement on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX part. I believe in fair and transparent financial practices and trust that this issue can be resolved promptly. 
I appreciate your urgent attention to this matter and look forward to a swift resolution. Please give me a call or email me at earliest convenience so we can resolve this matter.
