I am absolutely tired of these credit reporting agencies not properly following the law, it is defamation of character. They fail to follow the proper procedures required by law to report information to our consumer reports due to this failure. It has cost me my lively hood, I can not get approved for anything! I can not get approved for a mortgage, I can not get approved for a car loan or even a credit card! These companies think they can just keep bullying consumers around with all the technology they have, well they need to learn to follow the laws! These companies have cost me major emotional and mental stress and extreme relationship issues. Your company has destroyed my household! I can not even provide for my XXXX kids as I should be able to! TRANSUNION, XXXX, XXXX are not government entities and are required to follow the laws put in place for them! They should be severely punished for causing so much disaster to many american lives, including mine! I have listed every law/code that these terrible companies have violated and I have attached an ftc report , affidavit, an invoice to support my claims. I have attached my i.d, and my utility bill, for my identity verification. I have also attached a copy of my credit report as proof for the violations that these companies seem to do effortlessly. 
Please delete all requested information from my credit file as requested and fulfill my invoice.
