Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Cascade CISS Holdings, LLC
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
I am rewriting to XACTUS LLC follow up on a previous complaint regarding fraudulent and unauthorized hard inquiries that continue to appear on my credit report. 
Despite my prior communication, it seems that no action has been taken to address this alarming issue. These unauthorized inquiries remain unresolved, causing significant harm to my credit reputation and ongoing distress. As detailed in my Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) Identity Theft Report, reference number XXXX, I have never authorized the companies responsible for these hard inquiries to access my credit report. These inquiries were made without my consent or knowledge, constituting a clear violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The FCRA requires credit reporting agencies to ensure that all information included in a consumers credit report is accurate and authorized. XACTUS LLCs failure to remove these fraudulent inquiries after being notified of their unauthorized nature violates its legal obligations under the FCRA, including the duty to investigate disputes and verify the accuracy of reported information. I respectfully request that XACTUS LLC take immediate action by conducting a thorough investigation into the unauthorized hard inquiries identified in my credit file. These inquiries must be promptly removed, as they lack proper authorization. Furthermore, I ask that you provide written confirmation of your findings and detail the corrective actions taken to ensure compliance with the FCRA. Please treat this matter with the urgency it deserves. If XACTUS LLC fails to address these inaccuracies within the legally mandated timeframe, I may be forced to escalate the matter further by filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) or pursuing legal remedies to protect my rights under federal law. Thank you for your attention to this serious issue. I trust that XACTUS LLC will fulfill its obligations under the FCRA and take the necessary steps to resolve this matter promptly.
