Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MA XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MO XXXX Dear XXXX, I am formally disputing the unauthorized access and deletion of my student loan data as reported in the XXXX XXXX article titled XXXX XXXX and FERPA : Did XXXX Breach XXXX XXXX Contracts? '' ( XX/XX/scrub> XXXX  ). The report raises alarming concerns regarding potential violations of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA ) due to unauthorized access and tampering with student loan records. 

As a borrower with active student loan obligations, I am highly concerned that my rights under FERPA ( 20 U.S.C. 1232g ; 34 CFR Part 99 ) have been violated. Unauthorized deletion or modification of my education records is strictly prohibited under federal law. These reported actions have severely impacted my financial and educational standing, and I demand immediate corrective measures. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX I am formally requesting the following actions : 1. Immediate Investigation A full audit into whether my records were accessed, altered, or deleted without my consent.

2. Full Disclosure A comprehensive list of entities or individuals involved in accessing, modifying, or deleting my records.

3. Restoration & Rectification Immediate correction of any unauthorized deletions, accompanied by a written statement confirming all corrective actions taken. 
4. Future Compliance Assurance A formal, written confirmation that my student loan records will remain fully protected under FERPA and that no further unauthorized access or modifications will occur. 

I expect a written response within 30 days from the date of this letter, detailing the steps taken to address this matter. If my concerns are not properly addressed, I will escalate this issue by filing a formal complaint with the U.S. Department of Educations Family Policy Compliance Office ( FPCO ) and explore legal remedies. Please contact me at [ your phone number ] or [ your email address ] with updates. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency it demands. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX Account XXXX XXXX
