Complaint:
Under section 611of the FCRA, in general, if after a reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency must : 1. Promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer or modify that item of information to reflect the results of the reinvestigation ; and 2. Promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the customer 's file.

Suppose any information is deleted from a consumers file. In that case, it may not be reinserted in the file by the consumer reporting agency unless the person who furnis
hes the information certifies that the data is complete and accurate.

The below information was sent out to the three credit reporting agencies, Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX. However, the data is still misreported. 

I looked at a copy of my credit report and noticed I had a few accounts I wanted more information on. I am not sure if they are reporting right or wrong, I just want everything to be 100 % correct on my report. I found something called the Fair Credit Reporting Act, whereby law I have the right to challenge anything I am not sure of on my report. 

Do you know of 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681i ( a )? I heard that if you cant provide proof, these accounts must be deleted. I would like you to investigate these accounts and if they aren't 100 percent correct and right, they need to be deleted. 

Please check on these and get back to me within 30 days to complete the investigation. Below are the following accounts I would like you to investigate and remove if anything is missing or incorrect.
