Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NJ XXXX XX/XX/year> XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX Subject : Formal Dispute and Request to Remove LVNV FUNDING LLC, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear XXXX, I am writing to formally dispute the inclusion of LVNV FUNDING LLC, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on my credit report. I have notified this debt collection agency that I do not intend to pay the alleged amount listed on my file. Furthermore, I have not received any written validation of this debt as required by 15 U.S.C. 1692g under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

Under 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( a ), a debt collector is required to provide the consumer with a written notice within five days of the initial communication, containing : 1. The amount of the debt.

2. The name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed.

3. A statement of the consumer 's right to dispute the debt within 30 days.

4. A statement that upon written dispute, the debt collector must provide verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment.

5. The name and address of the original creditor if different from the current creditor.

To date, I have never received such a notice, which is a direct violation of the FDCPA. Without proper validation, this debt must be considered invalid. Additionally, under 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ), debt collectors must cease collection efforts until they provide verification of the debt.

In conjunction with 15 U.S.C. 1692c, which protects consumers from further communication upon written request, I am demanding that LVNV FUNDING LLC and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX cease all collection activity and that XXXX immediately investigate and remove this entry from my credit report. 
Please consider this letter as my formal dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and request for reinvestigation. I demand written confirmation once the disputed account has been removed from my report. If XXXX requires further information to process my dispute, please contact me at the address provided above. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your response within the statutory XXXX period. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
