Complaint narrative:
I submitted a complaint on XX/XX/XXXX about a XXXX  XXXX account on my credit report you have responded through the cfpb that the account doesn't exist on my credit report how could that be when I provided facts directly from my credit report? I do not believe that you did an investigation into this account you are now required to prove that you did an independent investigation and you didn't just parrot me. if you can't do that, this account needs to be removed. 

( complaint submitted on XX/XX/XXXX ) XXXX  XXXX sold the debt to XXXX XXXX  and send me a letter in the mail stating that XXXX OWNS THE ACCOUNT. I have disputed the accuracy of this account and yet it has always come back as accurate/ verified. FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 2 ) requires that a party who has reported information to the CRA must promptly update that reporting as necessary to maintain its current accuracy. Thus, the XXXX XXXX XXXX was required after their sale of the debt to portfolio recovery to promptly update the current balance to {$0.00} since no debt is therefore owed to them. Which they have never done no matter how many times this account was disputed. Both XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX can not report a balance only XXXX ( EXPERIAN RESPONSE ON XX/XX/XXXX ) Company 's Response Thank you for submitting your dispute on XX/XX/XXXX, through the CFPB Portal.
