XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date of Birth : XX/XX/XXXX SS # : XXXX Experian XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Subject : Formal Dispute of Alleged Debt Improper Transfer of DOE Loan to XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute the validity of an alleged debt that has been transferred from the XXXX. 
Department of Education ( DOE ) to the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). I have never signed or agreed to any Small Business Loan, nor have I entered into any contractual obligation with the SBA. This transfer is improper, and the debt is unenforceable under federal law.

The denial appears to be directly linked to this alleged debt, which I am disputing as incomplete Please remove it from my credit report.
