Thank you in advance. I was exercising my rights per FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) to request a complete description of all methods used to investigate my aforementioned dispute which was not afforded to me. My right was violated as per FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 8 ) these accounts should be promptly deleted and I should receive a phone call or have written confirmation.

I recently received a response to a dispute that I made under FCRA 611 ( a ) regarding an erroneous item on my credit report involving a transaction with. It saddened me to learn that you somehow verified the disputed item, electing to leave it on my report. I am very interested to learn how your investigator ( s ) arrived at this erroneous conclusion. I would like to see a complete list of all documents and correspondence with the creditor. Please include all names and contact information of employees that you spoke to as part of this investigation. All previous letters and documents that I sent to you previously are once again attached along with this correspondence in order to help you process this request.

I was asking for this verification because my credit score is important to me, and I believe it is being unjustly degraded as a result of this unfortunate error. Therefore, I request that you please do not send me a template letter in response to this request. I am in the process of planning a legal case, so I need specific answers to the specific questions asked of you in this letter.

As per FCRA 623.Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies ( a ) Duty of Furnishers of Information to Provide Accurate Information ( 1 ) Prohibition ( A ) Reporting information with actual knowledge of errors. A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

( B ) Reporting information after notice and confirmation of errors. A person shall not furnish information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if ( i ) the person has been notified by the consumer, at the address specified by the person for such notices, that specific information is inaccurate; and ( ii ) the information is, in fact, inaccurate.

As per FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) If the completeness or accuracy of any item of information contained in a consumers, or applicants, file at a consumer reporting agency ( such as Justifacts ) is disputed by the consumer. The consumer notifies the agency directly, or indirectly through a reseller, of such a dispute, the agency must, free of charge conduct a reasonable reinvestigation. This reinvestigation will determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate and record the status of the disputed information, or delete the item from the file. This must be done before the end of a 30-day period beginning on the date on which the agency receives the notice of the dispute from the consumer or reseller. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I mailed you a letter on XX/XX/XXXX disputing information in consumer reports compiled, maintained, and published by you allegedly concerning regarding the following : XXXX XXXX ACCT # XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Acct # XXXX, XXXX ACCT # XXXX XXXX XXXX ACCT # XXXX XXXX Per XXXX records, you received my dispute letter on XX/XX/XXXX. 

Accordingly, as per FCRA you were required to conduct a reasonable investigation and delete the disputed information as I requested before the end of the 30-day period of the date you received my dispute letter. You received my dispute letter on XX/XX/XXXX. Therefore your response was due on or by XX/XX/XXXX. Instead of sending me a response letter with tresults of your investigation of the disputed information, you mailed me a letter dated claiming Our reinvestigation of the dispute you recently submitted is now complete. If we were able to make changes to your credit report based on information you provided, we have done so. Otherwise we have contacted the company reporting the information you disputed, supplied them all relevant information and any documents you gave us with your dispute, and instructed them to : review all information we provide them about your dispute ; verify the accuracy of the information ; provide us a response to your dispute ; and update their records and systems as necessary. 

Clearly, you have willfully failed to delete the disputed information as I have requested. In lieu of the disputed information, you willfully failed to conduct a reasonable investigation of my dispute because we have contacted the company reporting the information you disputed, supplied them all relevant information and any documents you gave us with your dispute, and instructed them to : review all information we provide them about your dispute ; verify the accuracy of the information ; provide us a response to your dispute ; and update their records and systems as necessary. However your excuse of assumption is not a valid reason under the FCRA to not reinvestigate my dispute. Note, you have not made any reasonable determination that my dispute was frivolous and irrelevant. Nor have you sent me a notice of such determination that complies with the FCRA. Furthermore, I directly dispute the completeness and accuracy of information contained in my consumer file. As per the FCRA, your failure to reinvestigate is an intentional and/or negligent FCRA violation XXXX 

As a result of your conduct as described above you shall promptly delete the disputed information. Additionally, as per the FCRA, you are liable to me for damages for your conduct. Thus, in addition to your deletion of the disputed information, you are commanded to send a check in the amount of {$1000.00} payable to the order of XXXX XXXX. Be advised, this is NOT another dispute or opportunity for you to reinvestigate the previous dispute. As per your response the accounts were verified to be accurate. The allowable period to conduct such a reinvestigation has expired and shall not be extended by law. 

After multiple attempts to dispute this experian, XXXX, and equifax have failed to properly do a good faith attempt at a proper investigation. the tradeline and/or data furnisher and/or creditor have also failed to provide correct data to the consumer reporting agencies. 

I would like to know who each of the consumer reporting agencies spoke to in their investigation? 

How did each consumer reporting agency complete the investigation? 

How did each consumer reporting agency reach a conclusion and figure their results in their investigation? 

According to the credit/ consumer reporting agencies the accounts have been verified and accurate but they have reached these results by only parroting information they have received from the data furnishers. 

I would like to have all documents that aided the consumer reporting agency to reach a conclusion on their investigation.

According to the law 15 U.S. Code 1681a- Definitions ; rules of construction The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. 

in my last dispute I disputed all the accounts listed above and XXXX has failed to place all those accounts under dispute and has failed to provide results in more than 30 days.
