Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

XXXX XXXX systems and Ben Franklin financial I was looking for a school because I was pregnant, looking for a way to better our lives, I looked into XXXX programs.

I was unaware of the 3 day cancellation period and under a lot of pressure and overwhelmed. I couldnt cancel so I still tried to make it work. 
I was told the program was accelerated also but thats not the case. The last straw for my mental was looking over the contract they sent in the mail weeks later after sending it without the proper postage and the mailman asking me for the money to cover the postage fee because they improperly sent it. I did not have the money as I was out on leave. 
My church was going to help pay for a year and when we looked over the contract, it looked like my car contract with an insane interest amount, that I was never told about. XXXX for prerequisites that may or may not transfer over. I also received a letter in the mail saying that they will start garnishing my wages. 
They prey on people that are looking for a way to better their lives and take advantage.

Complaint narrative:
I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized credit inquiries made without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry, disclose all communication exchanged, share internal records, confirm identity verification measures, and demonstrate compliance with relevant laws.
