Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (SC)

You [ XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , ] replied that the alleged transaction you furnished as late was { accurate/ verified } choose the response they used } ] but my previous dispute did not ask you for accuracy or validation. 
On { XX/XX/XXXX } you furnished to { Experian, XXXX, } put the CRA that is reporting the late payment } an alleged transaction as Late.

15 U.S. Code 1666b - Timing of payments ( 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.

I requested the information that must have or possess by law in order for you to furnish a payment as late.

This is being request pursuant rule 1002.

In other words, to properly report information as verified, the furnisher must have sufficient evidence to support the conclusion that the information was true, and in doing this the conditions required by 15 USC 1666b must be met.

You failed to provide the required requested information, you failed to proceed in accordance with the requires for a creditor to treat a payment as late.

It has been over 30 days and you have not properly verify the information. 
Id. at XXXX ; see also XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX ) ( defining verify as [ t ] o prove to be true ; to confirm or establish the truth or truthfulness of ; to authenticate ). 
Importantly, a furnishers inability to conclusively determine that the disputed information is inaccurate does not mean that the furnisher is permitted to report back to the consumer reporting agency that its investigation verified the accuracy of that information. Instead, if the evidence available to the furnisher is insufficient to establish the truth or falsity of the disputed information, then, under the statutory framework, the furnisher must report that its investigation concluded that the disputed information can not be verified. 
XXXX, XXXX XXXX at XXXX. So, for example, if a furnisher is unable to verify that a consumer missed a payment, then it may be appropriate for the furnisher to delete any mentions of the missed payment while continuing to report other information about the account. 
Delete the information you are furnishing to the Consumer Reporting Agencies as late from account : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX

It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many items which do not belong to me. 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 are found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these files.

On XX/XX/2021, I initiated a dispute on credit report to the credit bureaus asking if they report bankruptcies to the credit bureaus and I got a letter stating The company that reported the information has certified to Experian that the information is accurate. To date, I have not heard back for the dispute with the other agencies. How did the credit bureaus verify my bankruptcy as 100 % accurate? I do not believe a fair investigation was conducted according to the 15 USC 1681. 

15 USC 1681 section 603 ( 3 ) ( E ) States ; The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. 

The credit bureaus also violated several other of my rights. 

The credit bureaus violated my given rights under 15 USC 1681.

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy.

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions According to : 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

I have items passed on that should be taken out or removed. 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.
