Hello, Good morning, I hope your doing very well. 

my final warning that I have explicitly explained to you these items are not accurate and not complete and you have continuously keep reporting them. 

XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Date of last activity Open Date Closed Date Account Status I wanted to follow up on the results received from you and the other 3 bureaus from my investigation, thank you for getting back with me within 5 days. 

I read that the process of the investigation is to reach every individual company to verify the accuracy of information. In accordance to FCRA, Section 611 A through D, you are supposed to let me know who you verify with. I ask you to delete anything that is not 100 percent accurate. I had a lot of inconsistencies between the 3 credit bureaus with these accounts listed below. 

I have now pointed out the mistakes so this account needs to be deleted immediately not updated, by updating the terms is an admission of guilt and direct violation of my rights of a fair investigation.I am not sure how you can state it was verified.How is it possible that XXXX, XXXX, Experian all verified the accounts above as accurate, but they all have inconsistencies in the reporting? In fact, there is no possible way a full investigation could have been done in accordance to section 611 due to the inconsistencies coming after my original request of investigation. 

At this point. I demand you delete these accounts immediately. Please forward me an updated credit report to my address after you have completed your deletion. 

Thank you,
