Complaint narrative:
Subject : REMOVAL OF INTERNAL BLOCK To whom it may concern, I am writing to formally request the removal of an internal block that has been placed on my credit report, in accordance with my rights under the FCRA, specifically Section 605 B.On XX/XX/2023, I asked Equifax Credit Reporting Agency I can not access my credit report. The representative of Equifax told me that they have placed an internal block on my credit file. I can not access my account because I am disputing inaccurate information and that is why Equifax have placed an internal block on my credit report without my knowledge. I did not receive any notice or anything. I do not have an internal block on my XXXX or XXXX account. So why should I have it on my Equifax Credit report? I kindly request Equifax to remove this block from my credit file immediately and provide me with written confirmation of the removal. Furthermore, I request that Equifax update my credit file to reflect the removal of the internal block. Please be advised that the FCRA mandates that the consumer reporting agencies respond to such request within 15 days failure to comply to this request within the legally required time frame will result in legal action to protect my rights under the FCRA. I appreciate Equfax 's attention in this matter and please provide me with written confirmation of the actions taken to remove the internal block from my credit file. Thank you for your cooperation. I look forward to a swift resolution of this issue. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.
