Complaint:
My first letters to the credit bureaus regarding this account were in XXXX XXXX and I have sent out letters each month since. This account is fraudulent and has been in dispute since I first seen it around labor day last year but according to the credit bureaus they have it listed as not in dispute and remains unverified in the last several months. How is this possible if I have sent repeated letters to each bureau disputing this as well as letter to the alleged creditor. These are all violations of my rights under Title 15USC1681 and I demand that CFPB investigate this. Each bureau had 30 days to verify the account and not only did they send me letters stating it was verified but yet on their own report it states that there has been no verification and it is not in dispute. I have copied the XXXX, FTC and the Attorney General for Florida.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I have been attempting to resolve issues with the information included on my credit reports for over 6 months and have not been able to receive satisfactory outcomes. 

When reviewing my XXXX, Equifax and XXXX reports this past summer, I noticed several accounts that I did not recognize : XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX Bank. On XX/XX/XXXX I wrote each reporting agency a certified letter requesting that the accounts be removed from my credit report. A month later I received correspondence from each agency stating the accounts were " verified as mine ''. I then submitted follow-up letters to each agency on XX/XX/XXXX requesting details about the information that was used to verify the that information correct, and received another " verified as accurate '' letter from each agency with no additional context and none of the information I requested. 

I have subsequently sent four ( 4 ) additional follow-up letters ( XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX ) to each agency requesting the method ( s ) of verification, copies of documentation reviewed, copies of signed contracts with my signature, etc., and to date have received the same generic " verified as accurate '' response. 

As my frustration level has increased with the lack of progress being made I began researching my rights in these matters and came across the Fair Credit Reporting Act. One of the sections in that piece of legislation states that these credit reporting agencies are supposed to keep and maintain copies of the legal documents consumer sign with companies/lenders. If that is the case, why would they not share that information when I requested it? The obvious answer is because such documentation does not exist, but then why continue to state that the information is " verified as accurate ''?

Complaint:
Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.
