Complaint narrative:
Upon conducting a recent investigation of my credit report, I discovered unverifiable, invalidated, inaccurate, and questionable items that your agency has failed to ensure are reported accurately. This discovery has caused me severe distress. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, it is mandatory that all information on my credit report is 100 % accurate ( 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) ).

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint concerning the mishandling of my credit report following identity theft and subsequent disputes, under the purview of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ). This complaint is filed under the protections and rights afforded to me by the following federal laws : - 15 U.S. Code 1602 ( p ) Definitions under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) - 15 U.S. Code 1601 Congressional findings and declaration of purpose - 15 U.S. Code 1692 Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) - 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) Correction of billing errors I have been a victim of identity theft, which has led to unauthorized hard inquiries and the creation of fraudulent accounts on my credit reports maintained by XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. I have taken the necessary steps to address this issue, including filing a police report and submitting a report to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ). Copies of these reports were sent to the aforementioned credit reporting agencies to notify them of the fraudulent activities affecting my credit files. Despite my efforts, including filing numerous disputes and opening several investigations with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, the unauthorized accounts and inquiries remain on my credit reports. These inaccuracies are adversely impacting my credit score and, consequently, my financial well-being. The persistence of these errors violates my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1692 ) and the Fair Credit Billing Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) ), which mandate the timely correction of billing errors and inaccurate information in consumer reports. The lack of appropriate action by the credit reporting agencies also undermines the objectives of the Truth in Lending Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1601 and 1602 ( p ) ), which aims to promote informed use of credit and ensure fair and accurate credit billing and reporting practices. I kindly request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to intervene in this matter and take the necessary actions to ensure : 1. Immediate removal of all unauthorized hard inquiries and fraudulent accounts from my credit reports. 2. Rectification of any inaccuracies in my credit reports caused by these fraudulent activities. 3. Assurance that the credit reporting agencies comply with the regulations set forth under federal laws to protect consumers from identity theft and credit report inaccuracies. Enclosed are copies of the police report, I trust that the CFPB will take my complaint seriously and act promptly to rectify the situation. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to your timely response and resolution. 

Please Advise, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
To : XXXX and TransUnion Re : Unauthorized Credit Inquiries. Trademark infringement for lacking permissible purpose to access and furnish my copyright and trademark protected intellectual property. 

To Whom It May Concern, This is my second request in regards to this unauthorized inquiry from your company that had been placed on my credit report without my permission.

As you no doubt are aware, the credit reporting agencies regard inquiries as a statement of fact and will not allow a consumer to dispute them. The CRAs maintain that if the inquiry is on file then the company listed did in fact view the consumer 's record.

I am writing this letter since the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA, Title 15 U.S.C. 1681 et. seq. ) prohibits anyone to view a consumer report absent a \'permissible purpose\ ' ( see specifically 1681s-3 ( b ) ).

I don't recall applying for credit with you.

Please explain in detail your purported permissible purpose giving you access to my credit file. In the event no such permissible purpose exists, please arrange for payment of no less than {$1000.00} ( XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX ), payable to the name listed above. 

Also be apprised that, in the event you fail to promptly and fairly address this serious matter, I will pursue my legal remedies as provided for under the FRCA. Specifically, Title 15 U.S.C. 1681n & 1681o which provide harsh penalties, including statutory and punitive damages, costs and attorney 's fees in appropriate cases, for non-compliance with the FCRA.

Your timing is crucial so I would greatly appreciate a response from you within thirty ( 30 ) days for the presence of this inquiry is doing serious damage to my credit report and is inhibiting my ability to obtain necessary credit.

Please immediately forward a letter indicating your intention to delete the inquiry or a copy of the original signed application. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
