Consumer Complaint: Upon reviewing my credit report, incorrect information is being reported to my personal credit file.

The 3 credit Bureaus has failed to properly identify and provide within the necessary time allowed by law any verifiable proof. The information is inaccurate & I never authorized for my credit to be accessed. They have failed to provide me with the written authorization or remove these inquiries reported only in my XXXX, Equifax and XXXX credit file.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Consumer Complaint: I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: To Whom It May Concern : According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract - any and all accounts you post on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) you have on file of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the accounts listed below. I must emphasize that the required original creditor 's documentation has not been provided to me, as required by FCRA Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). The absence of a consumer contract with my signature is notable. According to FCRA Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ), you are obligated to " promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified.

Provide written confirmation once the corrections have been successfully made. I understand the importance of accurate credit reporting and its direct impact on my financial well-being. Therefore, I expect a prompt and diligent investigation into this matter.
