Disputed four different times regarding accounts on report, and unverified items remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. Credit bureaus are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditors documentation on file to verify information is mine and is correct. Based upon the results of my first, second, third and fourth investigation, all three credit bureaus stated in writing, verification was conducted :, but gave no proof items were being reported correctly. Bureaus never gave contact name from company or bureau, who verified accounts in question.

On four separate occasions, I requested for bureaus to provide a copy of any original documentation required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( a consumer contract with my signature on it, and under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA, there was no documentation ever given. I requested for all four bureaus, they were required to promptly delete all information, which can not be verified.

The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me for negligent noncompliance ( Section 617 ) if there is a failure for credit bureaus to comply.
