Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because multiple credit reporting agencies and furnishers have willfully violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by reporting inaccurate, unverified, duplicate, unauthorized, and misleading information on my credit file. Despite my previous disputes, the agencies continue to report false data in violation of FCRA 602 ( a ), 607 ( b ), 611, and 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). I am demanding an immediate investigation into the following items and enforcement action against the reporting agencies and furnishers. 
XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Wrong Address This address does not belong to me and has never been associated with me. Reporting an incorrect address violates FCRA 607 ( b ). Remove immediately. 
XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX Wrong Address This location was never my residence. Continuing to report this false address after notification constitutes willful noncompliance under FCRA 616 and 617. Remove immediately. 
XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$470.00} Charge Off I have no knowledge of this account. You must provide full verification including the original signed contract and complete payment history. If you can not validate, delete immediately under FCRA 611. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$55.00} Charge Off This account is not mine. A charge-off can not be reported without proper documentation. Produce full verification or delete immediately. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$260.00} Charge Off Unverified, inaccurate, and not mine. Under FCRA 623, furnishers can not report data they can not confirm. Delete immediately. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$0.00} Late Payment False late payment reporting is a direct violation of FCRA 602 and 607 ( b ). With a XXXX balance and closed account, a late payment can not exist. Remove immediately. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$80.00} Charge Off I do not recognize this account. Provide original application, signed contract, and full ledger. If not verified, delete under FCRA 611.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$0.00} Late Payment This late payment is false. The account shows a XXXX balance and no valid proof of delinquency exists. Reporting unverified late data violates FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Delete immediately.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Not authorized. Delete immediately. 
XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Unauthorized. Delete immediately. 
XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Unauthorized inquiry. Remove immediately. 
These items remain on my credit reports without any valid verification. The bureaus and furnishers are refusing to follow federal law, which has caused financial harm and continues to damage my credit profile. I am requesting the CFPB to investigate these violations, require deletion of all unverified and inaccurate items, and take enforcement action against the responsible entities for ongoing noncompliance.
