Complaint narrative:
I am filing this formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding multiple inaccurate, unverified, and unauthorized items being reported on my credit report by the credit reporting agencies ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ) and the furnishers listed below. These errors are severely damaging my creditworthiness and violating my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 
After thoroughly reviewing my credit reports, I found several charge-offs and hard inquiries that are completely false, unverifiable, and unauthorized. I have made multiple attempts to have them investigated and removed by the credit bureaus, but they continue to remain on my reports without any proper validation or proof. 
XXXX XXXX Account No : XXXXXXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX High Balance : {$4400.00} Reported Status : Charge-Off This account is being falsely reported as a charge-off. I have no knowledge of this account being charged off, and I have never been notified by XXXX XXXX about any charge-off action. Under FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), furnishers are prohibited from reporting information they know or have reason to believe is inaccurate. Furthermore, I have not received any written notice under 15 U.S.C. 1692g, which means this debt can not be verified. Therefore, I am demanding that this entry be deleted from my credit report immediately as it is unverifiable, inaccurate, and damaging.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Inquiry dated XX/XX/XXXX These inquiries were also unauthorized and made without my consent.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX This inquiry is inaccurate and unauthorized. I have not applied for any credit with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX during that period.
