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: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Personal information incorrect

Consumer Complaint: I noticed that there were multiple addresses recorded on Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX. My correct address is the one indicated on the billing information I am sending you along with this complaint. There is also a misspelled name entry under XXXX. I tried sending them letters to request the removal of this incorrect information on my report, but apparently, they are still there as we speak. It has been causing me inconvenience whenever I apply for a bank loan or credit card because the creditors question me about these multiple addresses and employer information that are not mine.
