I am aware that, in spite of the precise information customers have provided, you have been using pre-written standard form letters in your responses to a large number of disputes, complaints, and challenges. I am fully aware that this is illegal because every customer complaint needs to be considered on its own merits and handled accordingly.

My letters have written and generated using accessible software that is available to everyone. If you choose not to process or address my letters, you are violating 15 U.S. Code 5 1681i. And it is against the law to delay the processing of letters from consumers based on the assumption that assistance from a third party may be available. 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 complete knowledge and consent. I am aware that you can postpone answering consumer letters without having to ask for a Power of Attorney. I will view your failure to respond to my correspondence in a timely manner as a willful disregard for my rights as a customer. I will be forced to get in touch with my lawyer and take legal action in such a situation. 

According to the FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( l ) and the accepted STANDARD of Metro 2 data fild reporting, I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is not correct. It is essential that all data included in a consumer 's file is properly documented and validated before it is made available for use by creditors. Therefore, I take this matter seriously. The allegations of delinquency and derogatory information against me are entirely false, I won't stand for any misinformation being associated with my name and fiancial history and I am determined to FIGHT back with ALL my strength! The accuracy of your credit report is crucial. The allegations listed do not meet the federal or state requirements for reporting and can not be substantiated. I challenge these claims due to their failure to comply with basic reporting standards, which would provide me with greater confidence in the accuracy of the information presented. It is your responsibility to maintain and report data with complete accuracy and compliance. You must not report any claims that you know do not meet regulatory requirements. It is crucial that we ensure all claims are accurate and reported in the appropriate format as mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and reporting standards such as METRO 2. I kindly request that you handle this matter with utmost care and diligence.

Company: PENTAGON FEDERAL CREDIT UNION (IL)

On XX/XX/, I made my final payment on my auto loan with PenFed Credit Union for my car loan. The bank has not provided the car title documents for my car. I called customer service and they claim to have sent the documents, but do not have a tracking number or any evidence that they sent the documents. I have requested the bank to agree to reimburse me for any fees that I would have to pay to obtain a copy of the title, but the bank has refused to make that commitment. 

In summary, the bank is not taking any responsibility for ensuring the title documents are provided to me or any of the fees that may be required.

In 2008 I contacted Wells Fargo that I need help with my loan and possible modification. They said they couldn't help us until we were late on our payments.

They did nothing to help us and had a realtor lock us out when we were out to dinner.
