I have made three attempts to request the credit bureaus to delete the inaccurate information through written disputes, providing supporting documentation to substantiate my claims. However, despite my efforts, there has been no resolution or corrective action taken by the credit bureaus to rectify these inaccuracies. 

I am seeking the intervention of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate this matter and ensure that the credit bureaus comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I request that the inaccurate information be promptly removed from my credit report to restore the accuracy and integrity of my credit history. 

Attached with this complaint are copies of the relevant documentation, including my written disputes, supporting evidence, and any responses received from the credit bureaus. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to a resolution that upholds the principles of fairness and accuracy in credit reporting.
