Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove any items which is found to be fraud due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Please remove these items.

This is my numerous attempt to inform you that I am an identity theft victim and that certain data in my file appear to be the result of improper activity. The documents I'm looking at have nothing to do with transactions that result in the acquisition of any property, money, or products that I have either made or approved. Block the entry of any information in my credit record that resulted from a claimed scam or extortion, assuming no one will care in any case.

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint concerning inquiries on my credit report that I neither recognized nor consented to. These unauthorized inquiries are not only concerning but also damaging to my financial reputation. It has come to my attention that certain inquiries have been made on my credit report without my consent or knowledge. I want to emphasize that I have no association with these inquiries and have never authorized any entity to access my credit information in this manner.

I am compelled to write this letter to formally contest the legitimacy of certain accounts erroneously attributed to my credit profile. These accounts unequivocally belong to another individual, and despite my diligent and repeated submissions of all requisite documentation, your bureau has failed to rectify these inaccuracies. This oversight not only impugns my financial reputation but also represents a flagrant disregard for the verification protocols mandated under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Section 611. Upon the initial detection of these spurious accounts, I promptly initiated disputes, substantiated by detailed evidence and identity verification documents. Despite this, the accounts continue to tarnish my credit report. The persistence of these inaccuracies suggests a gross failure to adhere to the stringent verification procedures outlined in the FCRA. Section 611 of the FCRA obligates credit bureaus to conduct a meticulous investigation of disputed information within a 30-day timeframe, verifying the accuracy of the contested information. Should the bureau be unable to substantiate the legitimacy of the disputed accounts, they are required by law to expunge such information from the consumers credit report. The continued presence of these accounts underscores a severe dereliction of this statutory duty. In light of the above, I demand immediate and unequivocal action to rectify this situation : Expunge the accounts from my credit report without delay. 
Provide a detailed account of the verification process undertaken for each disputed account, including specific methodologies employed and any communications with the creditors. 
Issue a written confirmation that these accounts have been removed and that my credit report has been amended to reflect the accurate information.

I have items passed on that should be taken out or blocked. Per FCRA segment 605, Credit Bureaus are expected to eliminate any records recorded on an ID THEFT REPORT. I've proactively remembered this report from a past letter and I am including it once more. I've educated my lawyer regarding my aims and they are eager to consider that Credit Bureaus are responsible for their tenacious rebelliousness.

My account with ( XXXX ) was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported in ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) to be removed. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


( XXXX ) Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section XXXX ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.

I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

Despite my previous 4 written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. They stated in their responses to my 4 dispute letters that they have verified that the items listed are accurate but they failed to send me copies of the documents that they used to verify these accounts as per my request. The fact that they have ignored my request to send me copies of the documents that they used to verify the disputed accounts is evidence that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts like they said they did. Their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after two written requests is also evidence of their willful disregard of Federal Law.
