You would like the disputed accounts and late payments removed from your report. At your request to begin an investigation of the named accounts, we contacted the data furnisher ( s ) and/or public record vendor ( s ) for the items in question and conveyed your disputes.

If you disagree with the results of the reinvestigations, it is your legal right, under the FCRA, to add a XXXX-word statement specifying the nature of your dispute. The consumer statement will appear on your credit report and be viewable upon inquiry. If you would like our assistance in providing a concise statement, please contact us directly at the telephone number or address provided on your personal credit report and we would be happy to assist you. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), a  national consumer credit reporting agencys role in the dispute process is to review the accuracy and completeness of any disputed item which may include contacting the furnisher of the information or the vendor that collected the information from a public record source, such as a court or other government office, notifying them of the disputed information and disclosing all relevant information regarding the consumers dispute. In order to help resolve the consumers dispute, Experian will review all relevant documents submitted by the consumer with the dispute and will forward such documents to the furnisher if Experian is unable to resolve the issue based on those documents. Consumers may also contact creditors directly to dispute items reported by the creditor. If the issue is not resolved, then the consumer credit reporting agency must offer to include a consumer statement on the personal credit report. The Credit Repair Organization Act, a federal law, prohibits credit repair companies from taking consumers money until they have fully completed the services they promised. It also requires such firms to provide consumers with a written contract stating all the services to be provided and the terms and conditions of payment. Under this law, consumers also have three days to withdraw from the contract. Please contact your local Attorney Generals office for further information regarding your specific state laws. You may refer to the credit report that you received for the name, phone number ( if available ) and address of the data furnisher who verified that information.
