Below are the specific violations identified : Section 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ) Right to Accurate Information : Experian has failed to fulfill its obligation to verify and provide detailed information regarding this account.

Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) Request for Reinvestigation : Despite multiple formal disputes, the inaccurate information has not been corrected. I demand an independent investigation and immediate correction of the inaccurate information on my report.

Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 5 ) ) Deletion of Unverified Information : If the information can not be verified, it must be deleted from the credit report immediately.
