Complaint narrative:
FROM : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Fl XXXX Date of Birth : XX/XX/XXXX Last XXXX of XXXX : XXXX TO : Equifax Mailing Address : Equifax Information Services LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX XXXX Mailing Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX XXXX Mailing Address : XXXX Consumer XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Re : Dispute of Incorrect Collection and Inquiry Information Account Number : XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I recently reviewed my credit report and discovered incorrect information regarding the abovereferenced account. This account is inaccurately reported as open and shows a past-due balance of {$1500.00}, although it was previously charged off, with {$1500.00} written off and marked as past due as of XX/XX/XXXX. Also, this account is inaccurately reported as open and shows a past-due balance of {$680.00}, it was previously charged off {$680.00} written off and marked as past due as of and Highest balance {$780.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX. 

I contacted both collections agency for debt validation, and they were able to validate the debt, as such : XXXX. A detailed payment history for this account. 
XXXX. The original contract with my signature agreeing to this debt. 
XXXX. Any insurance claims filed against this debt. 
XXXX. The chain of title demonstrating your right to collect this debt. 
XXXX. The address of the original creditor and proof of ownership or assignment of this debt. 
XXXX. The purchase agreement for the debt. 
XXXX. A copy of the original contract with my original signature. 
XXXX. Proof of ownership or assignment of this debt. 
XXXX. A XXXX form if this debt was charged off and considered income, as required by law. 

However, I am disputing the following points and requesting additional documentation under 15 U.S. Code 1692g. 
The continued collection attempts after the charge-off violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). As per the FCRA, I am entitled to a credit report that is accurate and free from errors. Reporting this account as open and with a balance is inaccurate and a violation of my rights. 

I request that you remove this account from my credit report immediately. Please provide me with an updated copy of my credit report once this correction has been made. 
Below, I have listed two specific disputes related to incorrect collection and inquiry information. 
I request the removal of the following accounts from my credit report due to incomplete or inaccurate reporting, which violates FCRA 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ) ( A ) : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 22 potentially negative months Balance : {$1500.00} Credit usage : 100 % Status : Account charged off, {$1500.00} written off, {$1500.00} past due as of XX/XX/XXXX Credit limit : {$1100.00} Highest balance : {$1600.00} Last payment date : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX.
