Subject : Urgent Clarification Needed : Debt Paid in Full, Removal Request Granted Dear [ Accounts Interchange Group ], I am writing to urgently address a critical matter regarding account [ Approval Code : XXXX ]. I recently learned that the debt associated with this account has been fully paid, and a request for its removal from my credit report was granted, following the tragic loss of a family member. 
Given the sensitive nature of this situation and the urgency it entails, I am reaching out to request confirmation and clarification regarding the status of this account. It is imperative that the necessary steps are taken to ensure its prompt removal from my credit report, as agreed upon. 
Your swift attention to this matter is greatly appreciated, as it will allow me to focus on the grieving process and necessary arrangements for my loved one without the added burden of unresolved financial issues. Also this credit reporting agency isnt listed on my consumer report. I was transferred from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX so I am very confused and do not feel comfortable with my information being sold. This miss understanding has gotten me denied for a loan and I do not know how I will help pay for my grandmothers funeral. 
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and resolution. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing this complaint regarding the accounts and information that Equifax is reporting to my consumer report. After going over my report I noticed several accounts that are negatively impacting my credit score in which I have no knowledge of the creditors reporting this debt. Ive then mailed a letter to Equifax asking them to investigate these accounts in which they never gave me a response. I reached out to the creditors and asked them to verify any debt and send me all documentation that authorizes the accounts. I am aware that it is Equifax 's duty to properly investigate my consumer report and remove anything thats not accurate nor verifiable. If theyre reporting these accounts, why cant they be verified with proof of signatures? The creditors listed in my complaint never had the consent to report, which is a violation of my right to privacy. Also, purchasing and selling my personal information without my consent is fraud and violates my right to privacy. No account may report to my consumer report without my consent or validation. In this complaint I have a dispute letter with the inaccurate information that I would like Equifax to investigate and ensure the most accurate information possible is being reported.
