DATE
Name of Credit Bureau
Address of Credit Bureau
City, State, Zip Code
To Whom It May Concern:
I understand that it is my right to obtain a copy of my credit report once per year under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I have reason to believe that there is information in my report that is not accurate and I wish to verify these discrepancies.
I have also been denied credit by NAME OF CAR DEALERSHIP on DATE. To the best of my understanding, there should have been nothing to prevent me from purchasing a new car. I need to review my report to ensure the information obtained within is accurate.
I know that your company will need some sort of verification to prove my identity. My social security number is 298-76-5498 and my current address is ADDRESS.
I have also attached a copy of my driver’s license which has my current address and social security number clearly printed on it. I would appreciate your prompt attention on this matter.
Sincerely,

To Whom It May Concern:
This letter is to request a copy of my credit report. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), I have the right to a free copy of my credit report every year.
I would like to check my report because I believe it contains inaccurate information that has hampered my ability to buy a new car. I was denied credit from NAME OF CAR DEALERSHIP on DATE because of my low credit rating. As far as I know, my credit rating should be high.
To verify my identity I include my social security number, 123-45-6789, and a copy of my current driver’s license. My current address is as above, and my previous address is ADDRESS. I can be reached at 555-123-4567 or at [email protected] Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
