Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Subject : Dispute of Inaccurate Credit Report Information Credit Report Account Number : XXXX Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear CFPB I am writing to formally dispute the inaccurate information on my credit report under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), which gives me the right to dispute information I believe to be inaccurate or incomplete. 

The account in question is from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a collections company, with which I have no contractual relationship. Specifically, the details are as follows : Account Number : XXXX Balance : {$2400.00} Date Opened : XX/XX/year> Payment Status : Seriously past due/ Assigned to attorney, collection agency, or credit grantor 's internal collection department Last Reported : XX/XX/year> Dispute Basis : No Contractual Relationship : Under 15 U.S. Code 1692e of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), debt collectors are required to report accurate information and must not use any false, deceptive, or misleading representations. I do not have any contractual agreement with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, which invalidates the reporting of this debt on my credit report. 

Inaccurate Reporting of Debt : The FCRA mandates that all information on a consumer 's credit report must be accurate and verifiable. Since there is no contract or agreement between myself and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, the accuracy of this reported debt is in question. Additionally, the absence of payment history and the derogatory information reported without adequate evidence further violates the FCRA. 

Potential Violation of Consumer Rights : The continued reporting of this account as derogatory, without proper verification and in the absence of a valid contract, may constitute a violation of my consumer rights under the FCRA. Additionally, the failure to provide complete information about the payment history and the terms of the alleged debt raises concerns about the legality of this reporting.

Request for Resolution : I request that [ Credit Bureau Name ] conduct a thorough investigation into this matter. If you are unable to verify the accuracy and legality of this information, I demand that this collections account be removed from my credit report immediately. 

Please notify me of the outcome of your investigation within the 30-day period as required by the FCRA. If the investigation reveals that the information is inaccurate, I request that the account be removed from my credit report and that I be provided with an updated copy of my report. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. If further information or documentation is required, please do not hesitate to contact me. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
