Complaint:
I have filed a dispute regarding public records that don't belong to me and they have refused to remove them. The courts don't verify accounts or report anything to the credit bureaus. The credit bureaus are getting this information via a third party who gets their information from public records that may have incorrect information, I have also disputed inquiries that t weren't permissible and the bureaus are refusing to do an investigation but yet want me to contact the reporting companies. According to the FCRA that isn't my job but the credit bureaus and if they can't be verified they must be deleted. I have also disputed accounts that should have been deleted and the bureaus allowed these companies to update the accounts which has lowered my credit score and has damaged my credit. The accounts are reporting as included in bankruptcy but are reporting as charge-off which is inaccurate. The bankruptcy does't belong to me and any account reporting as such needs to be deleted. XXXX is a third party reporting agency and obtains their information from public records and that information can't be verified and must be deleted.XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX The accounts are XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, What does the FCRA say about inquiries? 
FCRA Rules state that any information can be disputed and must be investigated. Credit inquiries made without permissible purpose can be removed. Additionally, the FCRA states you can sue for damages in the amount of {$1000.00} for each instance a company pulled your credit report without your permission. I'm asking for the method of verification and for the documents be sent to me. I'm asking for them to not use the XXXX  method as that is not a proper investigation and the data furnisher doesn't have to provide any documentation as to what is being reported. I'm asking for all the above accounts and inquiries to be deleted or this would be notice to serve as a violation and subject to {$1000.00} per violation.
