    Four threads relating to the same issue is three too many. If the OP is still 15 an adult should be dealing with this. I have my doubts whether this is a real post at all, so to quote Duncan Bannatyne, "I'm out!".

    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.

    To be brutally honest, if I had received that letter, I'd probably throw it in the bin after reading the first few lines.

    For example, instead of "I had been a victim of fraud in November 2011", try "In November 2011, I was the victim of fraud". It reads and sounds better. Don't say "you said" unless you know your talking to exactly the same person as before (unlikely if its going to a complaint department). "I had not received a form since" doesn't even make sense - did you or did you not receive a form?

    Explain exactly what happened and what you want. Be short and to the point.


    I think what you are really trying to say is.... the post is !!!!ing hellish and are advising OP to start again :D
