Complaint:
XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX A XXXX XXXX, XXXX Investigation Request Letter Date of Birth : XXXX, XXXX, 1997 SS # : XXXX To Whom It May Concern : I received a copy of my credit report with the intention of trying to improve my credit and take care of my responsibilities and noticed a few accounts that I wanted a little more explanation. I am just saying that I am not 100 percent sure if they are. I also read something called the Fair Credit Reporting Act where it said by law, I had the right to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate. Some of the people reporting things on me, I have never heard of, which made me write to you all.Are you familiar with something called 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681i ( a )? I heard that if you cant provide proof, these accounts must be deleted. Well, I want those accounts deleted because they are not 100 percent right and correct. So, could you please check on these and get back to me? I saw on a XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX where this lawyer said you have 30 days to complete this investigation. 
Procedures in case of disputed accuracy. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ), and 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( C ) covers the general investigation overview, the extension of the period to reinvestigate, and the limitations on extension of the period to investigate, while 1681i ( a ) ( 2 ) covers the promptness in how the bureaus must handle the notifications. 1681i ( a ) ( 3 ) covers if and how the bureaus can determine if a dispute is frivolous or irrelevant, all the way to 1681i ( f ) ( 3 ) where it governs how a CRA notifies a consumer through a reseller and others who furnish third party disputes free of charge, etc. Please investigate the following accounts and remove them for not authorizing my personal information to be verified.

I demand the following accounts be verified or removed immediately. 
Name of Account : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Action Requested : Cancel Contract. Please provide the original contract or delete. Victim of Identity Theft. 
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting act XXXX Account # XXXX, has violated my rights. 
15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have rights to privacy.

15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instuctions.

Please investigate if every piece of information is correct on the reported late payment history. If the late payments are not reporting 100 percent accurate, please remove them from this account and update the account as paid as agreed. I also read where I can get the updated report after you investigate this from the Free Lawyer guy. Could you please send it to me? Also, please let me know who had access to my file. I want the investigation outcome to be sent to my address I put on the from area. 


Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
