Company: The Nguyen Law Firm, PLC (VA)

Was contacted via mail/letter that I had a warrant and needed to appear in court for a {$280.00} medical bill in 10 weeks and says that any dispute should be taken up with the judge. To the best of my memory, this is the very first notice of this balance ever. The notice only included the name of the dr. - No details on date of service, etc. 

To go from no communication to a summons to appear in court is both excessive and downright threatening.

I acknowledge that, despite the specific details provided by customers, you have been employing pre-written standard form letters in responding to numerous disputes, complaints, and challenges. I am well aware that this practice is unlawful, as each customer complaint should be individually assessed and addressed on its own merits. 

My letters have been created using readily available software accessible to everyone. If you choose not to process or address my letters, you are violating 15 U.S. Code 5 1681i. It is against the law to delay the processing of letters from consumers based on the assumption that third-party assistance may be available, and this does not qualify as a legal exception. I am the sole author of any letters bearing my name, or they have been written by my advisors with my full knowledge and consent. I understand that you can postpone responding to consumer letters without requiring a Power of Attorney. I will interpret your failure to respond to my correspondence promptly as a deliberate disregard for my customer rights, and I will be compelled to involve my lawyer and take legal action in such a scenario. 

As per FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( l ) ) and the accepted XXXX XXXX data field reporting standard, I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is incorrect. It is crucial that all data in a consumer 's file is properly documented and validated before being made available for use by creditors. Consequently, I take this matter seriously. The allegations of delinquency and derogatory information against me are entirely false, and I am unwilling to tolerate any misinformation associated with my name and financial history. I am determined to fight back vigorously. 

The accuracy of your credit report is paramount, and the listed allegations do not meet federal or state reporting requirements and can not be substantiated. I challenge these claims due to their failure to comply with basic reporting standards, which would instill greater confidence in the accuracy of the presented information. It is your responsibility to maintain and report data with complete accuracy and compliance. Reporting claims that do not meet regulatory requirements is unacceptable. Ensuring accurate and properly formatted reporting, as mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and standards like XXXX XXXX, is crucial. I kindly request that you handle this matter with the utmost care and diligence.

On XXXX I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX OPM data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Dear Consumer Reporting Agency, I am writing to request that you update my personal information on my consumer credit report in accordance with my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) ). I believe it is important for consumer reporting agencies to exercise their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for the privacy rights of consumers. 

I hereby request that all personal identifiable information be deleted from my credit report, except for the information regarding XXXX XXXX. Specifically, I request that the following information be deleted : All addresses, except for my current address : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, IL XXXX, as I can not receive mail or any correspondence at any other address. 
All phone numbers, except for my current phone number ( xxx-xxx-xxxx ). 
My social security number and date of birth ( XXXX ), for privacy reasons. 
Additionally, please delete all information in the employer section. 
My only remaining contact details should be my name ( XXXX XXXX ), address ( as mentioned above ), date of birth ( XXXX ), and my email ( XXXX ). 

As a federally protected consumer, I have a right to privacy and expect that my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act be respected. Failure to grant my request would be in direct violation of 15 USC 1681 and its subsections. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
