The credit report showed a credit inquiry by your company that I do not recall authorizing. I understand that you should not be allowed to put an inquiry on my file unless I have authorized it. Please have this inquiry removed from my credit file because I believe I did not authorize this inquiry. I would appreciate your immediate attention in this matter. Kindly forward me documentation that you have had the inquiry removed. If you find that I am remiss, and you did have my authorization to inquire into my credit report, then please send me proof likewise. I thank you in advance for your cooperation and look forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely, «Signature» «Your Name» «Your SSN»
