Please accept this final written OFFER OF SETTLEMENT BEFORE LITIGATION as my attempt to amicably resolve your continued violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act regarding your refusal to delete INACCURATE, UNVERIFIABLE and INVALIDATED information from my consumer file. I intend to pursue litigation in accordance with the FCRA to seek relief and recover all monetary damages that I may be entitled to under Section 616 and Section 617 if the INACCURATE, UNVERIFIABLE and INVALIDATED items listed below are not deleted immediately.

YOU ARE IN DIRECT VIOLATION OF THE FCRA, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditors documentation on file to verify that this information is mine and is correct in the results of your investigations, you stated in writing that you " verified '' that these items are being " reported correctly '' Who verified these accounts? you have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as requested under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ).

The Fair credit Reporting Act is primary federal law that governs the collection and reporting of credit information about consumers. Its rules cover how a consumer 's credit information is obtained, how long it is kept, and how it is shared with other- including consumers themselves.

2. What is FCRA violation?

Creditors give reporting agencies inaccurate information about you. Reporting agencies mixing up one person 's information with another 's because for similar ( or same ) last name or social security number. Agencies fail to follow guidelines for handling disputes.

Dispute- and have the bureaus correct and delete- information in my report that is incomplete, inaccurate, and unverifiable.
