Complaint narrative:
I am absolutely livid about the inaccurate and derogatory information you have included in my credit report. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) gives me the right to dispute any information that I believe is inaccurate, and it is infuriating that you have not taken this seriously. You had one job, and you failed miserably. 

It is outrageous that you did not document and validate the data in my report before making it available to creditors. The allegations of delinquency and derogatoriness against me are completely false, and I will not stand for this kind of slander. I will fight back with every ounce of strength I have. 

Your reporting does not meet basic federal or state requirements for reporting, and it can not be confirmed. I challenge your claim because it lacks compliance with the basic standards that would make me feel confident in what you're saying. You are required by law ( FCRA ) and reporting standards METRO 2+ to maintain and report data with complete accuracy and compliance, yet you have failed to do so. It is completely unacceptable. 

It is your responsibility to ensure that all of your claims are accurate and reported in the correct format. Failure to do so could result in serious consequences for you. This letter serves as notice that you are not doing your job properly, and I demand that you resolve this issue immediately. I am giving you 30 days from now ( the date of delivery ) to rectify this situation, or else there will be serious consequences. 

I want physical proof of your actions and my updated credit report. The listed claims in my report are clearly inaccurate, and I demand accurate and verified information for each claim. If the allegations are indeed false, I will delete them immediately. Don't make me come after you with everything I've got.
