Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
" I was shocked and devastated to see credit inquiries without my knowledge. I have reached out to the creditors to ask the following but they have FAILED to provide such.

Inquiry Details : Ask the creditor to provide specific details about the inquiry, such as the date it was made, the purpose of the inquiry and the type of credit product or service associated with the inquiry. 
Application Documentation : Request copies of any credit applications or other documents related to the inquiry. This may include application forms, agreements, or disclosures that you would have completed or received when applying for credit. 
Authorization Documentation : Ask the creditor to provide evidence of your authorization for the inquiry. This could include signed consent forms, agreements, or disclosures that demonstrate you provided permission for the creditor to access your credit report.

Communication Records : Request copies of any correspondence or communication between you and the creditor regarding the inquiry. This may include emails, letters, or notes documenting your interactions with the creditor.

Internal Records : Ask the creditor to provide internal records or notes related to the inquiry, including any decision-making processes or reasons for initiating the inquiry.

Identity Verification : If identity theft is a concern, request verification measures taken by the creditor to confirm your identity before initiating the inquiry. This may include verification of personal information or identity documents provided during the application process. 
Compliance Documentation : Inquire about the creditor 's compliance with relevant laws and regulations governing credit inquiries, such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ).

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint regarding Equifaxs failure to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by refusing to remove an unauthorized inquiry from my credit report. Despite my repeated requests, Equifax has not provided verifiable proof of authorization for an inquiry by XXXX XXXX, dated XX/XX/XXXX. This inquiry lacks a permissible purpose under the FCRA, and Equifax 's refusal to remove it is a violation of federal law.I REPORTED THIS CASE TO THE FTC THROUGH REPORT NUMBER XXXX, DATE XX/XX/XXXX 1. Initial Request to Equifax : I requested proof of authorization, such as a signed document, to verify this inquiry. Since no proof of my authorization exists, I requested immediate removal. 
2. Complaint to the CFPB ( Report # XXXX ) : Due to Equifaxs lack of response, I filed a complaint with the CFPB on XX/XX/XXXX. 
3. Equifaxs Response to the CFPB : On XX/XX/XXXX, Equifax responded, stating that inquiries are factual records that must remain on file for two years. However, they failed to provide specific proof of authorization for this inquiry. 
Violations of the FCRA by Equifax : Under the FCRA, unauthorized and unverifiable inquiries must be removed. Specifically : Section 604 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681b ) : Requires a permissible purpose for accessing a consumers report. Equifaxs inability to provide proof of authorization violates this requirement. 
Section 611 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) : Mandates the removal of unverifiable information upon dispute, which Equifax has failed to comply with by not validating the inquiry. 
Section 609 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681g ( a ) ( 1 ) ) : Requires that a consumer be provided with verifiable proof of authorization upon request, which Equifax has not provided. 
Given Equifax 's lack of compliance, I demand either verifiable proof ( a signed contract ) authorizing this inquiry or its immediate deletion. Failure to resolve this matter within 30 days will result in escalation to appropriate legal channels to ensure accuracy in my credit report. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX MY ACCOUNT NO IS XXXX CAPITAL ONE BANK. 

I am writing to formally express my frustration regarding the closure of my account and the subsequent delay in transferring my funds.

However, it has now been almost a week, and I have yet to see the funds. I have reached out to your customer service several times, but unfortunately, I have not received any satisfactory answers or updates regarding the status of my funds. This lack of communication and resolution is causing me significant distress and inconvenience. I kindly request that you look into this matter urgently and provide me with an update on the status of my fund transfer. It is my hope that this issue can be resolved promptly so that I can avoid any further complications. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your swift response. Sincerely.
