I have asked multiple times for debt validation of alleged debt with WET signatures, not computer generated, which can be done by anyone.

Complaint narrative:
I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Request for Immediate Removal of Unauthorized Inquiries from My Credit Report To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute several unauthorized inquiries listed on my credit report formally. These inquiries are damaging my credit profile and negatively impacting my ability to purchase a new home. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), you are required to investigate and remove any inquiries that were not authorized by me.

According to the FCRA, specifically : 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( c ) : A credit report inquiry must be permissible under the law and authorized by the consumer.

15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) : If the information in a consumer report is found to be inaccurate or unverifiable, it must be promptly deleted. 
The following inquiries on my credit report were not authorized by me and should be removed immediately : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  I did not initiate these inquiries, nor did I provide explicit consent for these entities to access my credit profile. As such, they are unauthorized and should not appear on my credit report. 

Could you please immediately investigate and remove these inquiries from my credit report? Please provide a written confirmation of the results of your investigation within 30 days, as required by law. 

For your convenience, I have enclosed a copy of my identification and proof of address to facilitate the verification process. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Should you require any additional information, please contact me directly at the phone number or email address listed above.

Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
My XXXX credit account with the holder as TD bank went through an online system transfer. After this account transfer they watermarked a portion of the account as standard revolving interest in XXXX of XXXX ( {$170.00} ) when it should have been 0 % interest and because of that I was charged interest over the course of XXXX months on that balance that I should not had been charged. 

I called them on XX/XX/year> to inform them and was placed on hold multiple times for call totally upwards of XXXX hours ( no fault of the customer service rep, fault of their systems/processes ) until they finally told me they could open a dispute which would hold the aforementioned portion preventing it from accruing interest. They also told me they would refund the interest charged if determined to be incorrect. 

After the dispute period which lasted roughly 60 days ( I received a mailer referencing the dispute amount being resolved ) they refunded the interest and moved the incorrectly watermarked portion to a 0 % payment plan ( as it should have been marked from the beginning ). However, they then charged me interest again in XX/XX/year> that I should not have been charged at {$3.00} on what I can only assume was interest that would have been charged otherwise ( again, incorrectly ) on that disputed amount. I again had to call them to get the interest removed after which I was told I would have to put in another dispute for the {$3.00}. I told them that was unacceptable and to let me speak to a supervisor. I was then told after being on the phone for XXXX minutes that a second supervisor would waive the {$3.00} incorrect interest charge. 

I feel their policies suffer undue and unacceptable hardship to the consumer and that had I not been exceedingly diligent, they would have gotten away with multiple incorrect negligent charges, which at scale could afford them substantial profits potentially fraudulently but certainly negligently, and so I am filing this complaint today.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
