I sent the letter out to Transunion, XXXX, and XXXX. However, it's been more than 30 days and the credit bureau 's failed to send my investigation back. This is not making sense.

Here is a list since XX/XX/XXXX all from XXXX XXXX. I do not have any credit cards with them And these Hard Inquiries have been showing up weekly and is greatly effecting my credit score and profile and need removing. I have tried numerous times to contact Equifax they are always busy with too long of holds. 
Please remove this accounts. The only Credit Inquiries that are mine on my report for XX/XX/XXXX are XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX. And XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Anything else should not be on my report before XX/XX/XXXX.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NC)

A charge off account is showing on my report & the creditor told me that I can not get a copy of the 1099-C document because they did not officially charge off the debt and they didn't take a write off which is a violation because it says on my credit report that it is charged off which equates to false reporting & not reporting 100 % accurately. FCRA violations refers to a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which is a federal law that regulates the collection, dissemination, and use of consumer credit information. Federal law requires that consumer reporting agencies follow reasonable procedures to ensure 100 % accuracy of the information contained in their credit reports. If a consumer suffers damages as a result of a FCRA violation they may be entitled to bring a private lawsuit against the CRA and recover actual damages, statutory damages, and attorney 's fees. These accounts listed on my letter are not 100 % correct and I demand them to be investigated completely.

To Whom It May Concern, Please be advised this is my SECOND WRITTEN REQUEST. The unverifiable and incomplete items listed below remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditors documentation on file to verify that this information is mine and is correct. In the results of your first investigation, you stated in writing that you verified that these items are being reported correctly? Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) and under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified.

Please be advised that your company continues to report these unverifiable and incomplete items. These accounts can be considered falsified revenue and illegal by the IRS due to the fact these said accounts have been written off as a tax deduction. How can a payment be collected on an unverifiable and incomplete account, that has already been recorded as a tax deduction. These actions could have severe penalties for falsifying revenue reported to the IRS in accordance with the General Accounting Principles ( GAP Standards ).

It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove & block any accounts or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove these files.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (MA)

I have been a preferred rewards platinum honors member with bank of america since 2014. 
Just recently bank of america decided to close my account and 2 credit cards with no explanation. 


I have an excellent credit score and always paid my balances on time. 
I have no non violations of my user agreement. 
My biggest complaint is that the bank will not allow me to redeem my cash back totaling {$4900.00} and tells me the whole amount is forfeited. 

I have worked so hard to earn this cash back and unable to redeem it thru no fault of my own. 
I feel being taken advantage of and account was shut down in order to not be able to redeem my rewards. 

I dont understand why a large bank like bank of america would result to such unfair business practices.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

I first reached out to XXXX, Equifax and XXXX XXXX of 2022 regarding inaccuracies on my credit report with my XXXX account. They are reporting inaccurate information from open dates, last report dates, high credit limit, date last active and date of last payment. All of which are inaccurate and unfair to me. I sent certified letters with copies of my credit report and the inaccuracies circled and they have refused to remove them. I keep receiving letters that they have verified the accounts and that everything is accurate. I have reached out to them on multiple occasions and continue to get the same response. Most recently on XX/XX/2022, I mailed out affidavits certified to all three credit bureaus with a copy of the inaccurate information once again and they mailed me letters saying everything had been verified.
