Complaint narrative:
My credit report should only reflect accurate information, which is why its important to verify the accuracy of this data rather than relying solely on what the data furnisher has provided. Its frustrating to see my credit get negatively affected by inaccuracies that arent my fault. I'm deeply concerned about these errors and they've been causing me stress and it's also impacting my ability to secure new credit. They are mixed, fraudulent information that Ive never authorized or benefited from. This situation is unfair and I need you to address this as soon as possible to prevent further damage.

Complaint narrative:
This formal complaint concerns unauthorized inquiries appearing on my credit report, made without my consent and lacking a permissible purpose under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). These inquiries are negatively impacting my credit profile and do not meet the FCRAs requirements for accessing a consumers credit report without express authorization. 
Details of Disputed Inquiries : The following inquiries are disputed, as verified by the creditors, who confirmed they were conducted without my knowledge or authorization : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Equifax Legal Basis for Removal : Under the FCRA, specifically Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ), access to a credit report is only permissible when explicit consumer consent or a clearly permissible purpose exists. The listed inquiries do not meet these legal requirements. Additionally, under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ), any unverifiable information must be promptly removed from the credit report. 
I have attempted to resolve this matter directly with the credit bureau by submitting a formal dispute letter on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX. However, I have not received an adequate response or the removal of the unauthorized inquiries, which I believe constitutes noncompliance with FCRA provisions. 
Supporting Case Law for Removal : Legal precedents reinforce the need for removal of unauthorized inquiries in the absence of a permissible purpose. In XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX ruled that accessing a credit report without explicit consumer consent or a legitimate purpose constitutes a violation of the FCRA. Furthermore, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( XXXX Cir. XXXX ) reaffirms that credit bureaus are obligated to remove all inaccurate or unverifiable information.

These entries remain unverified and questionable. Despite multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies properly investigated and resolved, no meaningful action has been taken. I have submitted all required documentation and followed up repeatedly, yet the errors persist. This ongoing lack of action has caused undue financial hardship and has significantly affected my well-being. The mental and emotional toll of dealing with these unresolved discrepancies has been overwhelming. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report, including the removal of unverifiable or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate steps to verify and rectify these items, as failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law.

Complaint narrative:
This letter serves as a formal dispute and demand for deletion pursuant to my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S. Code 1681i, which mandates the reinvestigation of inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information reported in a consumers credit file.

XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX. XXXX LEGAL GROUNDS FOR REMOVAL : Under 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), once a dispute is filed, you are legally obligated to conduct a full and proper reinvestigation. Any item that can not be verified with complete accuracy must be deleted from the consumer 's file within 30 days.

I am exercising this right and demanding strict compliance. Additionally, 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) states that any disputed item that : can not be verified and must be deleted from the file of the consumer.

Let me be clear : unless you can furnish original documentation with my wet signature proving I originated this account, you must delete it. That means no screenshots, no digital entries, no data dumps from the furnisher I want the actual original contract bearing my live signature as verification. Anything less is legally insufficient under federal law.

Per 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ( 2 ) ( B ), if the furnisher fails to respond or verify the account with sufficient evidence, you are required to delete the account immediately.

YOU ARE HEREBY PUT ON NOTICE : You have 30 days from the receipt of this letter to complete a lawful investigation.

If this account is not 100 % verifiable, or if no documentation bearing my wet signature is produced, the account must be permanently deleted.

Failure to comply will result in formal complaints being filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and my State Attorney Generals Office.

I am also prepared to pursue civil litigation under 15 USC 1681n and 1681o for any willful or negligent noncompliance with federal law, where damages of up to {$1000.00} per violation, plus punitive damages, attorney fees, and court costs may be imposed. 

I expect this matter to be handled with the utmost urgency and in full accordance with federal law. You are not above the law. If this account is not verified to the letter of the law, it must be deleted without delay.
