Complaint narrative:
I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized credit inquiries made without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry, disclose all communication exchanged, share internal records, confirm identity verification measures, and demonstrate compliance with relevant laws.
