HARD INQUIRIES DISPUTES : Upon review of the numerous hard copy disputes on my credit report, I am requesting only the proper protocol to be adhered to in order to maintain the legitimacy of the hard inquiry, that includes an actual name of the person involved with any company that pulled a hard review of my credit history, but in addition a copy of the actual report ascertained from such a review. If these items can not be produced, then by deductive reasoning the hard inquiry is bot 100 % legitimate. Accordingly, under review of 604. Permissible purposes of consumer reports [ 15 U.S.C. 1681b ] ( a ), I request the deletion of the following lists of hard inquiries as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX.
