Please understand that I am the affected consumer of your unverified or insufficient reporting practices. Consequently, I am disputing the assumed, yet highly conditional, reporting privileges for any and all claims contested within this consumer complaint.

My insistence on your thorough examination shall specifically encompass, but not be limited to, your adherence to agreements referenced within the FCBA, FCRA, ECOA, as well as all relevant laws within my state, proven to be sufficiently comprehensive in showcasing that your adequate statutory reporting occurred precisely as it pertains to any claim purported by you in my report ( s ).

Undoubtedly, your obligation should be one of verifiable conformity to the XXXX XXXX Data Field Formatted Reporting Standards, as per CDIA guidelines! 

I've recently obtained copies of my personal consumer credit reports and have noticed questionable or insufficiently verified data within my file at your company 's offices, as outlined in my reviewed documents. I'm worried that this information might have been mistakenly or intentionally added back to my credit report by your offices after being removed from reporting, without providing the necessary five-day notice to me, as required by reporting regulations that your company must adhere to. 

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), any previously removed reporting item can not be reinserted into a consumer 's credit report without written notice from the relevant credit reporting agency or agencies directly to me, the affected consumer, within XXXX business days of the alleged reinsertion date.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NY)

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to bring to your attention significant errors in my credit report, which I believe have resulted from the Bureau 's failure to adhere to proper procedures and maintain accurate information, as required by 1681 ( a ) ( i ) ( A ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I am a resident of New York and covered under the FCRA and New York General Business Law ( NY GBS ) as a consumer. The errors in question have persisted before, during, and after the dispute process, constituting violations of state law, FCRA, and NY GBS. I kindly request a thorough reinvestigation into the following discrepancies : Violation # XXXX : Notice to Delete Account Immediately XXXX Account # XXXX : Incomplete Reporting : The account opened in XX/XX/XXXX, but there is no information reported until XX/XX/XXXX. The frequency of payments due is unknown this constitutes illegal incomplete reporting. Missing Information : Data of last activity, first delinquency ( stated as XX/XX/XXXX ), and terms frequency are absent. this constitutes illegal incomplete reporting. Incorrect Account Status : Despite being listed as a collection account ( status C ), there is no corresponding entry under the collections section. Creditor Classification : The type of business for XXXX is marked as unknown, which should be corrected. this constitutes illegal inaccurate reporting. Date Closed : The entry for the date closed is missing, and it should, at the very least, reflect the date the account was paid. Incomplete Account History : The actual payments made do not reflect accurately, with high credit showing {$0.00} and an incomplete amount past due in XXXX of XXXX entries. These discrepancies not only violate the FCRA but also indicate a failure to maintain reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of my credit information, as required by 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). I urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to address these issues promptly and thoroughly. It is imperative that inaccurate and unverifiable information be either corrected or deleted from my credit report, in accordance with federal and state laws. This account is reporting illegally and needs to be deleted.
