I called Wells Fargo concerning an inquiry made last XX/XX/2017 which shows up on my recent credit report with XXXX  as WF CRD SVC. I can not recall any activity around that time period that would account for this inquiry. I have no accounts with Wells Fargo and have not been shopping for a mortgage. I asked them to remove the inquiry which the representative attempted to see if that was possible and was told that Wells Fargo doesn't just remove inquiries because someone asked them to. I believe the inquiry is not by me.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (TX)

Subject : Dispute Regarding Inaccurate Debt Reporting Dear Sir/Madam, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally dispute the presence of a debt on my credit report, which has been reported by a third-party collection agency listed on my report. I would like to clarify that I do not have any contractual agreement with the said collection agency, and therefore, I am not responsible for the alleged debt they are attempting to collect. 

It is my understanding that the collection agency acquired this debt for a significantly reduced amount, often referred to as " pennies on the dollar. '' In doing so, they assumed the risk associated with the lack of a signed contract from me, the consumer. I believe it is unjust that I am being penalized for a debt that I do not owe, and it is negatively impacting my creditworthiness. 

I kindly request that you investigate this matter thoroughly and remove the disputed item from my credit report. As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), it is your obligation to ensure the accuracy of the information you report. In this case, the inclusion of the alleged debt is inaccurate and misleading, as I have never entered into any contractual agreement with the collection agency. 

Furthermore, I have taken the liberty of cc'ing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) to assist in the resolution of this matter. I have been struggling with this issue since 2017, and despite my efforts, I have not been able to find a satisfactory solution. The negative impact caused by this inaccurate information being reported on my credit report is affecting my financial opportunities and overall well-being. 

I urge you to take prompt action in investigating this dispute and rectifying the inaccuracies on my credit report. I expect to receive a written response from your office within the legally mandated 30-day period, informing me of the actions taken to address this matter. 

Thank you for your attention to this dispute. I trust that you will handle this matter with the utmost professionalism and urgency it deserves. 

Sincerely,

I looked at my credit report on Date, and noticed some things are incomplete and not accurate. I sent a letter to Experian on Date and asked them to investigate the completeness and accuracy. I received the results and noticed they did not fix nothing. They are breaking the law According to 15 USC 1681e ( b ) it states this ( b ) Accuracy of report whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.

According to 15 USC USC 1681i ( 5 ) it states that this ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverified information ( A ) In general If, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall- ( I ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation ; and ( ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer.

According to 15 USC 1681s-2 it states this. ( A ) Reporting information with actual knowledge of errors A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any reporting agency if the person knows or has a reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

( B ) Reporting information after notice and confirmation of errors A person shall not furnish information relating to a consumer reporting agency if- ( i ) the person has been notified by the consumer at the address specified by the person for such notices, that specific information is inaccurate; and ( ii ) the information is, in fact, inaccurate.
