Complaint:
Guys I highly believe that with all of my efforts of disputing since last year, that Im being willfully violated regarding my credit. I disputed my credit report for all accounts in XX/XX/XXXX after having to apply for a mortgage for my family to have a place to stay. I was being turned around because all of the accounts that are being charged in my name. I requested an investigation and original proof to be sent to me. I got absolutely nothing back. Not only that I decided to send a re-investigation letter through certified mail on XXXX XXXX to all 3 bureaus and requested specifically that every date, balance, verification of debt, payment history and all be checked thoroughly again. However, there has been no correction only more reporting that arent the same across all 3 bureaus. Im now out of a home with my XXXX children and my wife and have no other option at the moment to get my own place of living. 

Im have over XXXX accounts from the same Creditor : Account Name : XXXX  XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX being reported on my credit report. They all show the exact same account number, but completely different Date Open, High Credit, Payment History, Date Last Active, and more. Then theres XXXX more accounts with the same account number under XXXX  XXXX name, with lots of blank data from all 3 bureaus. 

XX/XX/XXXX is the oldest account under the names which is already XXXX  years of age and the oldest account being reported is XX/XX/XXXX which is XXXX  years of age. 

Again, its been few attempts to hear back from them. 

Section 607 ( b ) by FCRA ( b ) Accuracy of report. Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 

I saw on the CFPB bulletin for XXXX XXXX, that theres a requirement from the FCRA for CRAs to investigate all relevant information regarding a dispute. And there were XXXX things listed as requirements that has not been upheld regarding my credit safety as a consumer and citizen. 
Ive been mistaken for other XXXX XXXX continuously, but this time it actually cost me housing and denial from banks and damaged credit. 
Im requesting monetary relief per violation ( and the willful violation ) and for the damages that were caused and money spent trying to fix the same issue multiple times.

15 USC code 1681n ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Also, consumer reporting agencies must Correct or Delete any inaccurate, incomplete or unverifiable information within 30 days. And according to the FCRA everything must be 100 % accurate. 

I will attach both proofs of credit reports I pulled from XXXX XXXX ( in color ) and XXXX XXXX ( black and white ink only ) to compare if they thoroughly investigated and corrected anything. I will also list the tracking numbers below for the disputes.

Company response to consumer: Closed with explanation
