I am well-versed in consumer law and the requirements for proper reporting, so I know when my rights are being blatantly violated. Let me b

e clear : if an account is charged off, the creditor MUST issue a **1099-C ( Cancellation of Debt ) ** form to legally consider the debt canceled or paid in full.

You are reporting a charge-offs without any evidence of a 1099-C being filed with the IRS, which is deceptive, misleading, and a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Under **15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ) **, furnishers are required to update information and report accurately. If youre reporting these accounts as a charge-off, where is the proof that the debt was *charged off* or *canceled*?

Additionally, by failing to remove or correct this inaccurate information after my multiple attempts to dispute it, you are in violation of **15 U.S.C. 1681i** for failing to conduct a reasonable investigation into my dispute. According to **15 U.S.C . 1681e ( b ) **, you are required to ensure maximum possible accuracy in my credit report, and right now, youre falling short.
