Re : Inaccurate Reporting and Violation of Fair Credit Reporting Act & XXXX XXXX To whom it may concern at XXXX XXXX TRANSUNION XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX : I just checked my credit and found some inaccuracies. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 611 of FCRA you have a responsibility of promptly deleting any information which is inaccurate or incomplete so it doesn't get reported in my report! This is my understanding as well. It's important to note that under the FCRA, even if an account has only been speculated upon or never confirmed in any waythe burden falls on you ( the credit bureau ) to provide evidence of its veracity before it can be placed on my credit report. According to the FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( l ) and the accepted STANDARD of XXXX XXXX data field reporting, I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is not correct. When it comes to my credit report, I reserve the right to dispute any information that I deem to be inaccurate. I won't stand for any misinformation being associated with my name and financial history. If there's something on my credit report that doesn't seem right, you can bet that I'll be taking action to get it removed.I can not recognize or accept the allegation of delinquency without factual proof. There must be some sort of evidence to back up the claim. 
Otherwise, I can not and will not recognize or accept the allegation. According to federal and state law, you must report any allegations with the greatest compliance and accuracy possible.You should not report any claims that you know or should know are not in compliance with regulations and the law. If you do report such claims, you could be subject to fines or other penalties. Furthermore, reporting claims that you know are not in compliance could damage the reputation of your company.I am writing to inform you that you need to make sure all your claims are factual and certified before reporting them. This is required by the XXXX XXXX reporting standard. I request that you provide evidence to support the existence of the account and evidence that the account was used for a permissible purpose. Please provide any documents or records you may have that can help corroborate the account and its permissible purpose.I am giving you 30 days to investigate the matter and determine whether it is still being reported accurately and in compliance with regulations. If it is not, I want it removed from the report.I hereby authorize you to take whatever steps are necessary to correct my credit. Please send me physical proof of any actions taken on my behalf. I appreciate your help in making sure my credit is in good standing.Further investigation is required to verify the following claims. These claims remain unverified until further inquiry can confirm them. More research is needed to support these unsubstantiated assertions. Please report any verified claims immediately. Please certify that all claims that have been verified as accurate, complete, and timely reported have been reported in compliance with regulations or remove & reverse late payments immediately.
