Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NY)

I am formally contesting and urgently requesting the removal of a fraudulent account from my credit report. This dispute stems from a case of identity theft, for which I have filed a formal report with the Federal Trade Commission and have also lodged a Police Report with my local police department. Furthermore, I have contacted the bank associated with the fraudulent account. 

The bank has acknowledged the legitimacy of the identity theft report and identified a potential system glitch that has impeded access to the records. They have assured me of the swift removal of the fraudulent account, which has been erroneously present on my report for over five years. 

Despite this, the fraudulent account persists on my report within your bureau, and I am curious about the confirmation process you have undertaken. XXXX and XXXX credit bureaus have ceased reporting this fraudulent account since the submission of the required documents. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX.

I'm confused of what's going on. These enclosed items are still on my Credit Report. I contacted Equifax, it has been over well over 30 days to have these things ( over 10 addresses, wrong name and business credit inquires removed from my credit report. As I've already opt out reporting, froze my secondary and I've already froze my credit with Equifax, however these items are still being reported. How is this possible as I disputed this over 30 days ago. According to dispute procedures this was suppose to be either identified, investigated to be found valid or invalid. If valid a copy of an investigation provided to me, which did not happen. Therefore I expect it to be deleted immediately because it is causing me grave dangers to my credit report and enabling me to support my self and family. I thank you and look forward to hearing from you soon.
