Thank You XXXX XXXX / XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX TX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Dated XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXX XXXX XXXX Please be advised, I am hereby making a formal complaint about the inaccuracies that your agency, recently reported to XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX 

The inaccuracies begin with : 1. The collection accounts : are in fact NOT collections and are covered under the Covid:19 PAUSE from the US Government XXXX 


2. The collection accounts that your agency is inaccurately reporting were consolidated in XX/XX/XXXX. 

Utilization of credit ( percentage ) The inaccuracy here is that your agency falsely Reported that I was utilizing 95 % of my credit line which is NOT true. On XX/XX/XXXX, my credit usage was below 55 % of my available credit. 


On XX/XX/XXXX your agency inaccurately reported my credit score to XXXX XXXX  XXXX to be : XXXX when your agency on the same day rated my score as : XXXX XXXX XXXX which is your company affiliate. 

Nothing in your reporting of my credit history is accurate, as well the denial from XXXX XXXX XXXX has caused a drop in my credit scores, I have an inquiry that did NOT result in a NEW line of credit, based on the inaccuracies and obsolete information that your agency is reporting on my Credit report/history. 

Because of this DENIAL OF CREDIT I would like to receive a FREE copy of my full credit report. 

I have attached a copy of the original letter of denial AND a copy of a utility to verify my residential address. 
Please DO NOT make excuses for delaying the process of correcting and DELETING the negative and inaccurate information that your agency is currently reporting that is causing financial harm and undue damage to the establishment of a solid financial base. 

Thank you for your time and attention dedicated to the resolution and updates to my credit report. I look forward to receiving my FREE credit report. 

Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX
