I wish to contest a derogatory item present on my credit report that I believe to be inaccurate, untrue, incomplete, untimely, and potentially not even associated with my responsibility. Upon thorough examination of my report, I have identified numerous errors and inaccuracies being reported. I kindly request that you carefully review and rectify any and all of these discrepancies, ensuring they adhere to the standards of truthfulness, accuracy, completeness, timeliness, ownership responsibility, FCRA compliance, Metro 2 Format compliance, and any other relevant regulatory requirements governing reporting obligations.

NOTICE FOR REMOVAL OF INQUIRY REQUEST : According to Section 604 of US CODE 15 USC 1681 et seq., it is clearly stated that any entity requesting access to a consumer 's credit report must have a lawfully acquired and permissible purpose as outlined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). We demand to know if you and/or any other reporting party have provable and demonstrated lawful permissible purpose ( s ) for obtaining my credit report profile or any portion thereof. You must provide physically verifiable proof of this lawful permissible purpose, even if I have not authorized the inquiry or have no knowledge of it. Failure to provide such proof means that you must remove any inquiry reporting related to the event ( s ) in question. I am challenging you to demonstrate your mandatorily submitted permissible purpose proofs, and I hereby demand that you delete any such alleged inquiry reporting upon your failure to do so in a timely manner, whether willfully or due to your reckless ignorance.

I am concerned about potential harm caused by mixed or merged information, deviously reported inaccuracies such as status and activity dates, and balance and remark questions. These can directly affect my credit score, credit to balance ratio, debt to income ratio, and my ability to present my true creditworthiness for major loans such as for a vehicle, home, employment, etc.

I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

I purchased my vehicle through All approved auto sales, and they informed me that I was allowed to obtain a vehicle for {$20000.00} in which I just came across that the loan was immensely impacted and that what I signed off on was not what I expected to, and I tried to refinance my vehicle due to hardships, they told me that there was nothing they can do. The car is only worth {$10000.00}, the payout owed is {$34000.00}. Because I was behind on my payments, they stated that I had to pay more than what I was already paying, they do not work with you. I can't even trade the vehicle in because I'll still owe a lumpsum that's deterring car companies to turn me away because of the negative equity. My credit is heavily impacted by them, and I can no longer afford these payments. I was also told that I had GAP coverage and, on the payout, quote I was informed that I don't. I were scammed through All Approved Auto Sales in XXXX, NJ and I am looking to seek legal services in regard to this matter.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (MD)

In XXXX a XXXX XXXX credit card was opened fraudulently in my name with Wells Fargo. When I finally realized this account, it was completely maxed out and reporting as a charged off account. This was and still is hurting my credit score with all 3 major credit bureaus. I have been disputing this account with Wells Fargo since then with no luck even with a police report that I provided to them and added to my credit file with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  as well as a fraud alert for future security so that creditors and I can make sure that it is in fact me applying for credit. Recently, I opened a credit card financed thru Wells Fargo, went thru the verification process identifying myself with security questions and was approved. One month after, I tried using that card and was declined. When I called to ask why my card was not working, a rep told me that my card was completely closed due to identity theft. After being transferred to over 5 different people, I was told that this card was opened fraudulently and they would not reopen this account. I explained what happened to me in XXXX  when an account was actually opened fraudulently and this was a mistake because I went thru the steps to identity myself to attain this card. Wells Fargo said there was nothing they could do but now I am blocked from ever getting approved financed from them going forward. The actual fraudulent credit card is still reporting negatively. They closed a legitimate card for no reason however kept reporting the fraudulent card. I have had a mortgage account in excellent status for over 12 years and was a part of the class action suit Wells Fargo was involved in regarding their employees opening fake accounts so this is unbelievable to me. Remove this account immediately from my credit file
