Complaint narrative:
A loan account from XXXX XXXX with Loan ID : XXXX was added to my credit report, but this account does not belong to me. My legal name is XXXX XXXX XXXX, but the documents provided for this loan list the borrower as " XXXX XXXX XXXX, '' which is not my name or identity.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: PROVIDENT FUNDING ASSOCIATES
State: OR

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year>, my mortgage payment with Provident Funding was rejected due to a banking error on my behalf. We were unaware of the issue until early May, at which point we corrected it immediately. This was a one-time event after over 5 years of perfect on-time payment history.

I requested a goodwill adjustment from Provident, not because the payment wasnt late, but because the situation was resolved promptly and does not reflect our overall credit behavior. They refused without consideration. The one complaint dropped my score XXXX points down from XXXX. 

Im asking that this late mark be reconsidered for removal as a goodwill gesture due to my clean payment record and the unique nature of the situation.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This formal complaint concerns unauthorized inquiries appearing on my credit report, made without my consent and lacking a permissible purpose under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). These inquiries are negatively impacting my credit profile and do not meet the FCRAs requirements for accessing a consumers credit report without express authorization. 
Details of Disputed Inquiries : The following inquiries are disputed, as verified by the creditors, who confirmed they were conducted without my knowledge or authorization : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Equifax XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Equifax XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Equifax XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Equifax XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Equifax XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Equifax Legal Basis for Removal : Under the FCRA, specifically Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ), access to a credit report is only permissible when explicit consumer consent or a clearly permissible purpose exists. The listed inquiries do not meet these legal requirements. Additionally, under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ), any unverifiable information must be promptly removed from the credit report. 
I have attempted to resolve this matter directly with the credit bureau by submitting a formal dispute letter on XX/XX/XXXX. However, I have not received an adequate response or the removal of the unauthorized inquiries, which I believe constitutes noncompliance with FCRA provisions. 
Supporting Case Law for Removal : Legal precedents reinforce the need for removal of unauthorized inquiries in the absence of a permissible purpose. In Pintos v. Pacific Creditors Association ( 9th Cir. 2010 ), the Ninth Circuit ruled that accessing a credit report without explicit consumer consent or a legitimate purpose constitutes a violation of the FCRA. Furthermore, Dennis v. BEH-1, LLC ( 9th Cir. 2002 ) reaffirms that credit bureaus are obligated to remove all inaccurate or unverifiable information.

I feel like Im being taken advantage of and being ignored for my disputes.

Section 611 ( a ), it is plainly stated that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. It has been 60 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax data breach and they have got into the hands of the wrong person.
