Going over my report, I have found it has errors.

The FCRA states tat Is the consumer reporting agencys responsibility to ensure that all information contained within consumer flies is accurate and free from errors. Your company is regularly engaged in the business of assembling, evaluating and the disbursing information concerning consumers for the purpose of furnishing consumer reports, as defined in 15 U.S.C. 1681 a ( d ), to third parties.

According to federal law, you are required to comply with the requirements imposed under the FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., including but not limited to : 1.

Under the FCRA, if you do not provide documented and verifiable proof, you must remove all unverified, invalid derogatory infomration from my consumer report.
