I am formally invoking my right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to dispute the accuracy of the information listed in my consumer report, specifically the hard inquiries attached. 

In accordance with federal guidelines, I understand credit reporting agencies are required to respond to disputes within 30 days of receipt. However, as referenced on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus portal, it is standard practice to provide a response within 15 days when a complaint is forwarded to the appropriate company. 

Therefore, I kindly request a written response and resolution within 15 calendar days from the date of your receipt of this filing. If additional time is required under exceptional circumstances, please provide written notice of the delay and justification in accordance with FCRA procedures.
