Complaint:
REF : XXXX ACCT # XXXX XXXX 's has not provided the required documentation that justifies them to be on my credit reports and consumer reports. I've corresponded with them for them to reply with a letter stating this will remain on my report for 7 years, I asked for validation not proof of my current address which they only have because of the mail they've received from me. 

I also disputed it with Transunion XXXX and XXXX, and they have not responded either, Well, TransUnion said it was verified but didn't provide me with the details of the investigation on how it was verified with what information, is valid and how is it valid, this is getting ridiculous, and these companies are not adhering to the proper procedures that are required by law to my right to fair and accurate reporting. 

I will attach proof of my correspondence with XXXX 's and the letter they sent back to me after I requested validation.

Complaint:
I have disputed many times both online & writing that the delinquent payments during 2020  with XXXX XXXX XXXX were made under the 2020 " COVID CARES ACT '' and accommodations were granted. 
TransUnion refuses to correct the payment history correctly and they still will NOT REMOVE the DELINQUENT NEGATIVE PAYMENT HISTORY from 2020! 

In 2020 I worked monthly with XXXX XXXX to make ACCOMMODATIONS for payments under the " COVID Cares Act ''. As stated directly in the COVID " CARES ACT OF 2020 '' ( beginning XXXX ) : Quote : Lenders will be offering consumers affected by XXXX various forms of payment flexibility, including allowing consumers to defer or skip payments, as Required by the CARES ACT. Such payment accommodations will AVOID the REPORTING of DELINQUENCIES resulting from the effects of XXXX. 

I have disputed this with TransUnion many times and they still will NOT REMOVE the DELINQUENT NEGATIVE PAYMENT HISTORY from 2020 on my XXXX XXXX XXXX  Account! 
This is XXXX and XXXX. 
If a correction is not made IMMEDIATELY I will be forced to seek LEGAL ACTION and recovery of FEES for damages. 

I have been a loyal customer and have XXXX payments left on this account. 
XXXX XXXX has agreed to remove these late/derogatory payments & has sent notice to all XXXX credit bureaus without correction to my file. 
I have even contacted the CEO of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Chief Executive Officer XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX & Customer Experience Officer, of XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX Executive Director, Chief Financial Officer of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Public record information inaccurate

Complaint:
I obtained my XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX credit report. There was a U.S. Bankruptcy court item listed on my credit reports. Per the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) If a credit reporting agency can not VALIDATE the information with the ORIGINAL CREDITOR, they must remove said information from the consumer credit file.

The Bankruptcy Court has mailed me a letter which emphatically stated that they do NOT provide any information to credit reporting agencies, nor do they ever validate and/or confirm public records. It is the credit reporting agencies, and/or other third party providers who collect information regarding public cases from public records. Public records information is NEVER validated by the U.S. Court system due to the Fair Credit Reporting Agency PRIVACY LAW.

My inquiry to the U.S. Bankruptcy Courts confirmed XXXX XXXX has never validated or verified this public record entry on my credit report, neither will they ever be by them They further stated while they are NOT liable or responsible for any MIUSE or INCORRECT public records, nor the distribution of said information, public records may, and oftentimes are, reported by third party sources unaware to the consumer, and in most cases, incorrect. Considering the information indicating a Fair Credit Reporting Act violation, I need all bankruptcy information currently showing under my social security number to be PERMANENTLY DELETED from my credit report immediately.

Per the FEDERAL CREDIT REPORTING ACT, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( a ), you are required by federal law to verify through physical verification of the ORIGNAL signed consumer contract and/or judgment ( s )- all accounts and public information that you post on anyone 's credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail, email in fraudulent and erroneous account information.

I have included my last letter sent to the credit agencies demanding this false inaccurate information be deleted from my consumer credit report and I have yet to hear back from them. I am herby asking that this be handled immedicably.
