Complaint narrative:
Account Not Mine : XXXX  XXXX XXXX : This letter is to formally advise you that I believe your company has violated several of my consumer rights. Specifically, you failed to validate a debt at my request, which is a FDCPA violation and you continued to report a disputed debt to the Credit Bureaus : another FCRA violation. Not only have you ignored my prior requests for validation of debt but you continue to report this debt to the credit bureaus causing damage to my character. 
This letter will AGAIN request that you follow the FDCPA and please provide the following validation of debt request : Proof of your right to own/collect this alleged debt Balance claimed including all fees, interest and penalties Contract bearing my personal signature As you may be aware, " Estoppel by Silence '' legally means that you had a duty to speak but failed to do so therefore, that must mean you agree with me that this debt is false. I will use the Estoppel in my defense. 
I expect to receive the proof requested above within 15 days of this letter. 
Should you again ignore my request for validation of debt I reserve the right to sue your company for violations of my consumer rights as specified under both the FDCPA and the FCRA. I may also seek damages from you if warranted

Complaint narrative:
Again, I was a victim of identity theft and I wil be submitting this CFPB Complaint to request to remove the Fraudulent items from my credit file resulting from the identity theft. Per FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), the Credit Reporting Agencies are required to remove any accounts and information not later than 4 business days after XX/XX/XXXX. Ive already included this report in my previous letter & I am including it again. Also, the information you provided on some items are UNKNOWN to me and REMOVED from other bureaus and I have doubts about their accuracy. As a consumer protected under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to accurate and up-to-date credit information. The fraudulent inquiries listed on my credit report are in direct violation of this right. I need the following items removed as soon as possible : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX.

Since it has now been three months since I began disputing these inquiries, I expect immediate action to be taken.

Complaint narrative:
A few weeks ago I sent letters to all 3 credit bureaus regarding some items on my credit report which I know are not accurate which is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA and you must abide by the law. Everything I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. Ive received emails and letters saying Im using a 3rd party which is incorrect because I am the one sending my letters out and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair company or 3rd party. The CRAs are in violation of my rights due to not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I request these accounts to be deleted from my credit asap or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I want to purchase a house soon and this holding me back.

I would like the items I disputed in my letters to be handled accordingly based on the reasons that I put in my letters.
