Sincerely, XX/XX/XXXX Dear Experian, I am writing to formally dispute an inaccurate charge-off account currently reported on my credit file. The details of the account in question are as follows : Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Type : Sales Contract Responsibility : Individual Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Status : Charged Off {$84.00} Written Off Status Updated : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$0.00} ( Updated XX/XX/XXXX ) Terms : 6 Months On Record Until : XX/XX/XXXX Basis of Dispute 1. Lack of Debt Validation Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 1692g, I have the right to request proper validation of this debt. However, I have not received : A signed contract proving I legally owe this debt. 
A full breakdown of the charges leading to the charge-off. 
Documentation proving XXXX still owns this debt or verification of its transfer to another lender.

2. Inconsistent Reporting The charge-off is being reported despite the balance being listed as {$0.00}, which raises concerns about accuracy under FCRA 1681e ( b ). If the balance is paid or transferred, the charge-off status may not be correctly reported.

3. Ownership & Legal Compliance Issues The account is marked as purchased by another lender, yet I have not received any information identifying the new creditor. If XXXX no longer owns this debt, they may not have the legal authority to continue reporting it under FCRA guidelines XXXX 

Requested Action I request that Experian : 1. Immediately verify the accuracy of this account with supporting documentation, including a signed agreement, a detailed transaction history, and proof of ownership.

2. If the account can not be fully verified, I demand its removal from my credit report to comply with FCRA regulations.

As required under FCRA 1681i ( a ), I expect a full investigation to be completed within 30 days of receipt of this letter. If Experian does not correct this reporting error, I will escalate my complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and my state Attorney Generals office. 

Please confirm receipt of this dispute as soon as possible.
