No success with removing inquires.
I have sent in letters simultaneously to the creditor and the credit bureau disputing several inquires on my credit report that I did not authorize. I have received letters back from either the creditor or the credit bureau basically pointing the finger at each other. Any advise in getting these removed would be helpful.

Re: No success with removing inquires.
How many inquiries did you dispute and how old are they ? People have reported getting fraud alerts added for disputing inquiries, and the points involved are usually minimal.

I got a handful of fraud alerts.

 

Plus if you didn't authorize them, its ID theft, and its pretty easy to take care of. Just file a police report.
