In XX/XX/XXXX I received a debt collection notice in the mail for a utility company in Texas from XX/XX/XXXX. I have never lived in Texas and can give proof that I lived and worked in XXXX  at the time of this service. I called the debt collector and the company they are supposedly collecting on behalf of and was told to email XXXX. I did this and have gotten no response. I have not been given any way to dispute this through the company. I have filed XXXX police reports, XXXX in Texas where this debt occurred and XXXX in XXXX where I live. I am concerned this is going to impact my credit If not disputed and resolved quickly. I need the company to cooperate as the police can not do much since this is for a debt that occurred in XXXX and to my knowledge is not a current or recent issue.

Plaintiffs, XXXX XXXX XXXX, files the following action against Respondent ( s ) XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and Experian XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX et al for violating 15 U.S.C. 1681 e ( b ) for intentionally and knowingly failing to assure maximum possible accuracy of information contained within consumer credit reports. FACTUAL BASIS 1. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX requested, pursuant to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ), a description of all methods used to investigate and/or verify the accuracy of the reported information on alleged bankruptcies filed XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, respondents stated to XXXX XXXX that the reported alleged bankruptcy was certified as accurate and refused to remove said information. At issue in the foregoing complaint is the failure and refusal of Respondents to remove unverifiable bankruptcy from consumer credit reports. There exists no possibility or mechanism for a Consumer Reporting Agency to verify any bankruptcy filings in accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). All Federal Bankruptcy Courts are restricted from public disclosure of individuals personal identifiers by Federal Court Rule 5.2 ( a ) 1-4. Therefore, not enough information is contained with a court record for a Consumer Reporting Agency to comply with the statutory requirements of the law. In XXXX, the Respondents settled a lawsuit brought by all 50 State Attorneys in a lawsuit pertaining to the use of public records from state and local courts. As part of that settlement the Respondents created the National Consumer Assistance Plan, which in relevant part established enhanced standards ( effective XX/XX/XXXX ) requiring that state and local court public records be reported with at least a minimum of personal identifying elements to include name, address, full social security number and a complete date of birth. Because no Federal agencies intervened on the behalf of consumers, the Respondents opted to disallow Federal bankruptcies in these enhanced standards and requirements. WHERFORE, plaintiff requests that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau find Respondent ( s ) in violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681 e ( b ) and AFCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) and order an immediate halt to the reporting of bankruptcy information on all related consumer credit reports. Because Respondents have been fully aware that its actions violated the rights of consumers since at least XXXX, the Plaintiffs request that the CFPB join plaintiff in federal lawsuit.

to XXXX concerning discrepancies in my credit report, Following a thorough investigation into my credit report, I experienced significant distress upon discovering numerous unverifiable, invalidated, inaccurate, and questionable items that your agency failed to ensure were reported accurately. Pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ), which mandates consumer reporting agencies to employ reasonable procedures to ensure the utmost accuracy of information pertaining to individuals, it is clear that your obligations in this regard have not been met.

I am aware that according to 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ), specifically addressing the treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information, consumer reporting agencies are obligated to promptly delete or modify such information upon confirmation of its inaccuracy or inability to be verified. Additionally, they are required to notify the information provider of any modifications or deletions made. Should you fail to provide verifiable proof within 15 days following your investigation, the accounts and/or information detailed below must be removed. 

Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 7 ) regarding the method of verification, it is evident that the following account lacks valid evidence and is therefore in violation. Please take the necessary steps to remove it from my credit report : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Similarly, in accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 7 ), the following account lacks valid evidence and should be removed from my credit report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Thank you for your cooperation in addressing this matter promptly.

Regardless of the multiple written requests, the account listed below is still reporting on my credit report which is a violation of FCRA.
