Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report.

This inquiry constitutes a violation of my rights under the FCRA. To resolve this matter, I am demanding the following : Immediate removal of the unauthorized inquiry from all credit reporting agencies ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ). Payment of {$1000.00} as damages, in accordance with statutory penalties for non-compliance with the FCRA. Should you fail to comply with this request within 15 days, I will escalate the matter. This includes filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and the Missouri Attorney General. I will also pursue legal remedies, including arbitration or small claims court, to recover damages. If you believe this inquiry was authorized, you are required to provide evidence, including a signed authorization or documentation demonstrating a valid permissible purpose, within the same XXXX timeframe. Please confirm in writing that the inquiry has been removed and payment will be made. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.
