Complaint narrative:
Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified accounts listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct.

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verified that these accounts are being reported correctly? Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified.

Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA.

Since you claim youve verified the accounts listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the banks directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THESE ACCOUNTS? I believe you have not verified these accounts based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, regarding their repeated and harassing behavior toward me. Over the past few months, they have called me over XXXX times. However, every time I attempted to answer, they would immediately hang up, leaving me without any opportunity to resolve the situation or understand the purpose of their calls. 

I repeatedly attempted to inquire about what was going on, but each time I did, they would disconnect the call without providing any explanation. This ongoing harassment has caused me significant stress and frustration. 

To make matters worse, after these incessant and unproductive calls, XXXX XXXX XXXX proceeded to sue me, despite my credit already being in dispute. The account in question had been flagged as potentially linked to the dark web, and I had received a notice that it was used fraudulently by an unknown party. Despite this serious issue, XXXX XXXX XXXX continued their aggressive actions without investigating the validity of the debt. 

This situation has greatly affected my peace of mind, and I feel that their behavior is not only unprofessional but also a violation of fair debt collection practices. I respectfully request your assistance in investigating this matter and holding XXXX XXXX XXXX accountable for their harassment and unjust actions. 

Thank you for your time and attention to this complaint. Please let me know if you require any further information or documentation to assist in your investigation. 

Sincerely,

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute several unauthorized inquiries on my credit report, in accordance with my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically sections 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ), and 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ).

After reviewing my recent credit report, I have identified the following inquiries that I do not recognize or authorize : Disputed Inquiry : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> Basis for Dispute : Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) states that I have the right to dispute any inaccurate or incomplete information on my credit report. I request that you investigate these unauthorized inquiries and remove them from my credit report.

Section 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ) grants me the right to access all information in my file, including the inquiries made. After reviewing this information, I firmly believe that the inquiries listed above should not be on my report.

Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) defines the permissible purposes for obtaining credit reports. I did not give my consent for these inquiries to be made, and I can not find a permissible purpose under this section that justifies their presence on my report. 

Request : I request an immediate investigation into the listed inquiries. If it is determined that these inquiries were made without my authorization or in error, I ask that they be removed from my credit report. I also request that you provide me with an updated copy of my credit report once the necessary corrections have been made. 

Enclosed is a copy of my identification to verify my identity. 
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. Please confirm receipt of this letter and keep me informed of the progress of your investigation.
