Complaint narrative:
The TransUnion along with XXXX have been denying me about all these inquiries on my account. I have given police reports and identity theft reports stating that these inquiries were not mine. Im tired of it. They all need to be removed at once!!! According to 15 USC 1681b I DID NOT GIVE ANY PERMISSION FOR MY CREDIT TO BE RAN ALONG WITH IT BEING PUBLISHED ON MY CONSUMER REPORT! This is illegal to obtain my credit without my permission and you can be sued for it. So TransUnion and XXXX need to remove these inquiries. Its a ridiculous amount of inquiries which is crazy and some are one day after the other. Like seriously youre not going to get an approval if you didnt get one the day before. Im tired of fighting especially when I have said it isnt mine its fraud given police reports and so forth. Remove at once.
