Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Complaint:
I recently received my credit report regarding XXXX XXXX listed below : XXXX XXXX : 1. US BANKRUPTCY COURT, XXXX, IL. ; Reference Number XXXX ; original filing date, XX/XX/XXXX. 
2. US BAMKRUPTCY COURT, XXXX, IL. ; Reference Number XXXX ; original filing date, XX/XX/XXXX. 

I recently submitted disputes with XXXX, XXXX and Transunion on the above mentioned bankruptcies, requesting that they be verified. All three Bureaus responded that they verified the bankruptcies with the US Bankruptcy XXXX, XXXX, IL. This is in fact a lie. I have obtained a valid letter from the United States Bankruptcy Court stating that The United States Bankruptcy Court does not report any information to the credit bureaus and is not responsible for verifying information from consumers credit files. ( See attached letter from The Clerk of Court United States Bankruptcy Court, XXXX XXXX XXXX ) This is, in fact, contrary to the findings or results of my rightful dispute asking that XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion verify the above-mentioned bankruptcies listed on my credit report. And using the third-party company, XXXX as the furnisher to verify the above listed public records is not the original furnisher of the information. But I showed XXXX, XXXX and Transunion, with the attached document from the US Bankruptcy Court Clerk, Northern District of Illinois, that they in fact, DO NOT VERIFY information with the credit bureaus. The Fair Credit Reporting Act specifically states that all items on a credit report must be verified from the original furnisher. And the US Bankruptcy Court Clerk is the original furnisher of all public XXXX. So, XXXX, Transunion and XXXX is in direct breach of the law by reporting the above listed public records. 

Also, I recently obtained my Consumer Disclosure Report from XXXX, in which XXXX and XXXX uses as a third-party vendor to verify bankruptcies on a person 's credit report ( See attached XXXX Consumer Disclosure Report ). In that report there isnt any bankruptcies listed associated with my social security number. 

And the addresses attached to the bankruptcies on my credit report with XXXX, XXXX and Transunion does not or have not belonged to me at all. I don't, nor have I ever been able to receive mail at the addresses attached to the above listed bankruptcies. 

The above-listed public records can't be verified and must be removed from my credit report. 

In conclusion, XXXX, XXXX and Transunion have failed to provide me with verification of the above listed bankruptcies. They are publicizing inaccurate information on my credit report. Which is a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 1681 ( c ), 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) and a serious breach of my privacy rights. 

I have maintained careful records of their actions. I once again, respectfully request that XXXX, XXXX and Transunion remove the above-mentioned bankruptcies from my credit report immediately.
