Dear Mr. Mullen:
“On the day that I was denied credit I was told my credit report
shows I was involved in bankruptcy; I could not believe it. I had
not filed bankruptcy; this had to be a hoax… I have been denied
credit and of course my dream to purchase a new home is broken;
I am a trustworthy consumer. I needed to know my rights and then
you wrote me. Thank you for your interest and information it is
very much appreciated.”
