Complaint narrative:
Subject : Dispute of Unauthorized Credit Inquiries What Happened? 
I previously filed a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) regarding unauthorized inquiries on my credit report. The reference number for that complaint is FTC Complaint Number XXXX, filed on FTC Complaint Date XX/XX/XXXXXXXX 
Complaint Description : My credit report contains unauthorized inquiries that were made without my consent. Upon contacting the creditors responsible for these inquiries, they confirmed they have no evidence that I initiated these inquiries and lack any written or verbal authorization from me. 
Due to the lack of valid grounds for these inquiries, I formally requested their immediate removal. The credit bureau in question has not provided a satisfactory response, which is why I filed a complaint with the FTC. 
Details of Disputed Inquiries : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX Legal Grounds ( Fair Credit Reporting Act, FCRA ) : Permissible Purposes : Under Section 604, unauthorized inquiries do not meet the requirements for permissible purposes. 
Handling of Unverifiable Information : According to Section 611, any inquiry that can not be verified must be removed.

Right of Verification : Section 609 grants me the right to verify each inquiry with an original signed contract.

Information Provider Responsibility : Section 623 requires that reported data is accurate and authorized.

Protection Against Identity Theft : Section 605A mandates the removal of unauthorized inquiries potentially related to identity theft.

" I am attaching the report of the formal complaint filed with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) as additional support for this claim. This report reinforces my request for the removal of unauthorized inquiries from my credit report, as it details the lack of authorization for these inquiries and the inadequate response from the credit bureau involved. '' Additional Legal Support : Cases such as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( XXXX ) reinforce that inquiries must meet the FCRA 's permissible purposes requirements.

Formal Request : I am formally requesting a thorough and manual investigation of the disputed inquiries and their removal if there is no verifiable documentation. I reserve the right to take legal action and file an additional complaint with the CFPB and my state 's Attorney General. 
Sincerely XXXX XXXX XXXX

Dear ( Debt Collector ) I recently received a debt collection notice from your office. I am writing to verify that you have contacted the correct individual and to request that you provide documentation confirming this.

XXXX. Proof that the original creditor securitized the debt.

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations.

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute inaccurate information that appears on my Experian credit report dated XX/XX/XXXX. The account in question is : XXXX XXXX XXXX Auto Loan Account # XXXX Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$11000.00} This account is incorrectly reporting 53 late payments on my Experian report, whereas my XXXX report reflects 41 late payments for the same account. This discrepancy indicates that the information reported by Experian is inaccurate. 

I respectfully request that you reinvestigate this matter and verify the accuracy of the reported late payments. If the account can not be verified, please delete the inaccurate information from my credit report in compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Thank you for your prompt assistance in this matter.

Complaint narrative:
Opened up a checking, savings, and money market account with Ally Bank in early XXXX. In approximately a month I transferred {$120000.00} into all three accounts via ACH. I have had numerous deposits go into the above accounts and several leave the same accounts ( typical banking ). I also added another phone # and an alternative mailing address so the debit cards they were sending would not sit in a mailbox detached from our home for an extended period of time. I reached out to both notify and ask Ally about these changes and was told there was no problem. I also verified my identity with them on several occasions, per their policy. 

I received emails on XX/XX/year> that all three accounts were " locked '' and pending a fraud/identity theft investigation. I spoke to the fraud department and was asked extremely invasive and unacceptable questions bordering on inappropriate. I was then told that there was no timetable for my accounts to be returned to normal or " unlocked '' and that I had to just wait. 

This is unacceptable. The amount in question is significant and needs to be accessed immediately. To " lock '' up these funds without any explanation is beyond acceptable. I do not want to go down this road, but I will gladly contact my attorney 's and get them involved. 

I appreciate any help you can provide and hopefully something can be done. 

Thank you.

Complaint narrative:
I settled my debt with a collection agency several months ago. The collection agency was underhanded in its dealings with me and failed to provide me verification of my debt before filing a small claims suit against me. Due to not dealing with me in good faith and violating FDCPA laws, the collection company was forced to settle for less than they wanted to avoid a counter suit. The collection company took months to get the correct paperwork to my lawyer, in spite of a court dismissing the suit with prejudice. I disputed the information that Transunion had on my credit report, and they never investigated the dispute beyond contacting the collection agency, even when I sent them the court dismissal information.
