Subject: North Carolina Sample Letter to Experian formerlyYR— - Requesting Free Copy of Your Credit Report based on Denial of Credit Dear Experian, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to request a free copy of my credit report, as per my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). I have recently been denied credit, and I believe it is essential to review my credit history for accuracy and potential discrepancies. As a resident of North Carolina, I understand that Experian, formerly known as TRY, is one of the three major credit reporting bureaus mandated to provide annual free credit reports to consumers upon their request. Therefore, I kindly ask you to assist me in obtaining a complimentary copy of my credit report. Here are some relevant keywords and information related to my request: 1. Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA): The FCRA is a federal law designed to protect consumers by promoting accuracy, fairness, and privacy of their credit information. It grants individuals the right to access their credit reports and dispute any inaccurate or incomplete information. 2. Denial of Credit: Recently, I applied for credit, and unfortunately, my application was denied. This rejection prompted me to review my credit report to understand the reasons behind the denial. 3. Annual Free Credit Report: As a North Carolina resident, I am aware that I am entitled to one free copy of my credit report from each of the three major credit bureaus — Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion – every 12 months. However, due to the denial of my recent credit application, I am specifically requesting my free credit report from Experian. 4. Accuracy and Discrepancies: It is crucial for me to review my credit report for accuracy. It allows me to verify that all the information reflected is correct, and there are no errors or discrepancies that might impact my creditworthiness. 5. Identity Verification: To proceed with my request, I have enclosed copies of the necessary identification documents, such as a copy of my driver's license and a utility bill with my current address. This will help verify my identity and ensure the security of my personal information. I appreciate your attention to this matter and your cooperation in providing me with a free copy of my credit report. Prompt action regarding my request will be highly valued. Thank you for your time and assistance. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number]
