I am writing to file a formal complaint against the Credit Bureaus regarding their persistent failure to correct inaccurate information on my credit report. Despite my repeated attempts to resolve these issues over the past several months, the XXXX XXXX has not taken the necessary actions to remove the late closed accounts and the charge-off entries that do not belong to me. I have provided extensive documentation to support my claims, including payment records, statements, and correspondence from creditors confirming that these entries are incorrect. Despite providing evidence that these accounts were not closed late, they remain incorrectly reported on my credit report. However, they persist on my credit report, negatively impacting my credit score and financial standing. I have sent multiple letters and made numerous phone calls to the credit bureaus. Despite my efforts, the XXXX XXXX has XXXX to remove the accounts or provide a satisfactory explanation for their refusal to do so. I respectfully request for your intervention to ensure that the credit bureau complies with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by accurately reporting my credit information. I trust that you will take a swift and decisive action to resolve this matter. I have enclosed copies of all correspondence and documentation related to my disputes for your review. The following accounts should be remove as soon as possible : XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : {$0.00} - Please investigate the account name, date of last activity, and account balance. This information seems to be misleading. This will need to be removed pronto.

XXXX.

The balance is truly incorrect, if possible, replace it with XXXX or eliminate the item certainly. 

XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : {$140.00} - This company has illegally re-aged this account. Please investigate thoroughly and delete for lawful accuracy. 

XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$400.00} - XXXX requested an investigation and the removal of the charge-off status. No changes were made. No investigation was conducted at all.
