Subject : Request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) all accounts fraudulent in this complaint be DELETED immediately.

I am submitting this complaint to request immediate intervention due to serious violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) by TRANSUNION, Despite previous requests for correction, these violations continue to negatively impact my credit report and financial standing.

Enclosed is a copy of my Police Report/FTC identity theft report ( FTC REPORT XXXX : XXXX ) as evidence supporting my identity theft claim. As per 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, upon submission of an identity theft report by a consumer, credit reporting agencies are obligated to block any information flagged by the consumer as stemming from identity theft within FOUR business days.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally address the ongoing noncompliance of your agency in relation to my identity theft report, which I previously submitted in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Despite having sent multiple letters, your agency has repeatedly rejected my identity theft report on the grounds that it was not filed by a law enforcement agency. This decision is not in compliance with the FCRA and fails to recognize the guidance provided byXX/XX/XXXX as mandated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ).

As you are aware, the FCRA at Section 605B and the guidance provided by the CFPB under XXXX clearly outline the process for filing an identity theft report. The CFPB specifically states that victims of identity theft can file a report directly through XXXX, which then becomes a valid identity theft report under the FCRA. Nowhere does the FCRA require this report to be submitted by law enforcement for it to be valid. 

Furthermore, under FCRA Section 617, your agency is legally required to investigate and resolve any identity theft dispute in a timely manner, and you are prohibited from deciding unilaterally what is valid or invalid when it comes to an identity theft report that has been properly filed. Your refusal to acknowledge this report based on your own standardsrather than what is set forth in federal lawis a clear violation of the FCRA. 

Legal Precedent : 1.Parker v. Time Warner Entertainment Co. L.P. , 331 F.3d 13 ( 2d Cir. 2003 ) : This case underscores the importance of proper handling of disputes related to credit reporting and emphasizes that credit reporting agencies can not disregard information simply based on their own internal policies when federal law mandates a specific process.

2.Sarver v. Experian Information Solutions , Inc. , 390 F.3d 969 ( 7th Cir. 2004 ) : This case reinforced that credit reporting agencies must follow FCRA regulations, including investigating claims of identity theft in accordance with the law, and can not arbitrarily determine what constitutes an acceptable identity theft report.

3.Henson v. Santander Consumer USA , Inc. , 2017 U.S. Dist . LEXIS 191143 ( E.D. Va. 2017 ) : This decision clarified that a credit reporting agency is obligated to accept documents submitted by the consumer, as long as they meet the legal requirements for disputing inaccurate information under the FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my serious concern regarding the lack of resolution for my previous dispute about unauthorized inquiries on my credit report, which I submitted on XX/XX/XXXX. According to 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 ), I demand an immediate resolution.

I submitted my dispute over 30 days ago and have yet to receive an adequate resolution.

Section 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ) grants me the right to access all information in my file, including the results of your investigation. To date, I have not received the required information.

Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) defines the permissible purposes for obtaining credit reports. These inquiries were made without my consent and do not meet any permissible purpose under this section.

Immediate Request : I demand immediate action to resolve this dispute. Specifically, I request the following : Thorough Reinvestigation : Conduct a thorough reinvestigation of the unauthorized inquiries.

Removal of Unauthorized Inquiries : Remove any inquiries found to be unauthorized from my credit report.

Updated Credit Report : Provide me with an updated copy of my credit report reflecting these changes.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the inaccurate information reflected on my credit report. The information appears to violate my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and should be removed or corrected promptly. The FCRA mandates that only accurate, complete, and verifiable information be included in credit reports ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ).

1. Incorrect Accounts Several accounts listed on my credit report appear to be inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated. Under FCRA Section 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ), I am entitled to dispute information that I believe to be inaccurate, and the credit reporting agency is required to investigate the disputed information within 30 days. I have reason to believe that the following accounts do not belong to me, contain incorrect data, or should no longer be listed due to age or resolution : XXXX XXXX XXXX - Balance : {$780.00} - Account # : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - Balance : {$340.00} - Account # : XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$310.00} - Account # : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$14000.00} - Account # : XXXXXXXX XXXX  - Balance : {$3400.00} - Account # : XXXX As required under the FCRA, I request that these accounts be thoroughly investigated and either updated or removed from my credit report if found to be inaccurate. 

Please consider this my formal request for an investigation under the FCRA. If the items mentioned above are not removed or corrected, I will seek further action, including filing complaints with the CFPB and taking legal steps to enforce my rights under the law.
