I am formally contesting any inaccurate or undocumented information found in my credit report. This includes unverified claims, which I challenge under the FCRA and the accepted STANDARD of metro 2 data field reporting. The alleged delinquency and inquiries lack factual proof, and it is inappropriate to report claims known or should be known to be unlawful.

I hereby notify you to ensure the accuracy of all your claims, as mandated by the Metro 2 reporting standard.

Ive noticed that several deviations from mandatory reporting standards therefore the data in my report can not be accurate and complete! With that said, I deny your allegations and I challenge you to provide proof that you have the right to report this incomplete negative information on my credit report. Per 15 U.S.C 1681e Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.

According to 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) requires furnishers to : Furnish information concerning accounts or other relationships with a consumer that has integrity. 
Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with an accurate consumer. 
C - Conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes According to XXXX, to make a lawful report, you must follow the Metro 2 compliance standards. 
Also as stated in the XXXX Any Deviation From These Standards Jeopardizes The Integrity of The Data. This means that any mistakes in reporting claims can make the information less accurate and it affects the accuracy of any federally regulated reports. 
Therefore, I am invoking my rights to challenge these inaccurate and non-compliant items. Neglecting my demand will only prove that you DO NOT care about my rights as a consumer. Its NOT FAIR for you to report information that isnt confirmed to be ethical and meets the standards of certified reporting. Again, I am challenging these claims and asking for proof of the proper reporting standards. 
You are violating my rights! I have listed the concerns about your reporting in this document. It's not complete and does not meet my standards according to law, you must certify all aspects of required FCRA/ Metro 2 compliance which is done truthfully, correctly ( promptly ), completely AND accurately as well - or else I would have to escalate these issues to the CFPB XXXX FTC and my Attorney General.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (MO)

When I made the decision to use my rights under FCRA, it was with the intent of fighting any inaccurate or incomplete information in my credit report. By doing so, I am ensuring that the information on my credit report is accurate and reliable. I have every right to challenge any inaccuracies in a manner that is compliant with federal law when they are negatively affecting me financially because of their accuracy or completeness. This is just an allegation. There is no proof that I am delinquent or derogatory, so how can you report this? With all due respect, the claims within my report are wrong! You have to follow proper procedures if these claims are in your system and to be used in my credit reports! I challenge the accuracy and fairness of your findings by demanding evidence before you make any claims and take such drastic measures against my reputation. I know that you can't just decide which rules apply to your organization, so I won't let anyone report any false claims. It is important to make sure all of your claims are accurate and reported in the correct format- this is required by law ( FCRA ) as well as Metro 2 standards. For any negative account, I demand documentation/proof proving why your company considers it delinquent or derogatory. You have yet to provide me records documenting how your company verified and validated these accounts/claims. Your proof of each negative claim you placed on my credit report should also include proof of a permissible purpose for any inquiry into the account. It's time for me to get my life back! I need you to send over some physical proof of what has been done and an updated credit report. Please confirm that this matter has been reported correctly or remove it from the report immediately. I am giving you 30 days to investigate.
