The expeditious removal of all unauthorized credit inquiries. 
The thorough verification and clarification of questionable account information, or its removal if unverifiable. 
In conclusion, I implore the CFPB to stand by its mission to safeguard consumer rights and promote fair treatment within the financial sector. The violations I have endured have not only disrupted my financial well-being but have also inflicted profound emotional distress. I eagerly await your response outlining the actions taken to address these violations and restore justice to my situation. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I anticipate a timely response to this formal complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
