Consumer Complaint: I trust this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention the ongoing issue of fraudulent items on my account with your company. Despite numerous attempts on my part to address and rectify this matter, I have faced significant challenges in having these fraudulent items removed from my records. The presence of fraudulent items on my account not only poses a serious threat to my financial well-being but also undermines the integrity of your company 's services. I am deeply concerned about the potential consequences of these inaccuracies, and it is disheartening to experience a lack of responsiveness in resolving such a critical matter. I urge you to conduct a thorough investigation into the fraudulent items on my account and take immediate action to rectify this situation. Furthermore, I request a detailed explanation for the delays in addressing this issue and seek your assurance that appropriate measures will be implemented to prevent similar incidents in the future. If this matter is not resolved within the exact timeframe from the date of this letter, I will be compelled to escalate this complaint by reporting the issue to relevant regulatory authorities and seeking legal counsel.

Consumer Complaint: I appreciate your taking the time to CORRECT some of the information in my credit file ; however, there are still other accounts that need to be UPDATED.

Issue: Written notification about debt

Subissue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Consumer Complaint: I am writing to express my extreme frustration and disbelief regarding the handling of my dispute concerning fraudulent information in my credit file. I have repeatedly informed you that I am a victim of identity theft, and I have provided substantial evidence to support my claim. Despite this, it appears that the fraudulent accounts continue to persist in my credit report. I emphatically demand the immediate removal of the following fraudulent accounts from my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX I find it unacceptable that, despite my clear statements and the evidence I've provided, these fraudulent accounts are not being blocked from my credit file. It is imperative that you take immediate action to rectify this situation. I want to emphasize that the other bureaus have already taken the necessary steps to remove some of these fraudulent accounts from their records. They identified errors and promptly rectified the situation. I am perplexed about how your bureau has verified this information while others have successfully removed it.

Consumer Complaint: Time has already passed but up until now, I havent heard any kind of response from the 3Credit Bureaus which made me decide to seek assistance from you. They have shown negligence and an act of refusal to comply with my request. I know for a fact that they are to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act law, provide proof, and documents, and give definite and accurate responses, within the given statutory time. However, if they fail to do so, they are obliged to remove or update the items which are erroneous and unverified. Their unfavorable and unacceptable actions have been hurting my credit scores immensely.
