Complaint narrative:
Mailed letters on XX/XX/2024 to dispute inaccuracies on my account and each time I was mailed a stall letter saying they fell someone else as sent my information. This is a direct violation of the FCRA. Additionally there is NO law that states a consumer can not use a third party, so using that as your excuse is a irrelevant. In fact, the United States Congress has found the whole process so overwhelming that they afford consumers the right to use a third party on their behalf if the consumer so chooses. This is why your statement is so shameful. I reserve the right to sue a credit bureau for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and I believe I can prove that you did not use reasonable measures to insure the accuracy of my credit reports and now you are stalling the process even further. I realize disputes can be expensive and it is your job to stall them, but you do so at great risk. Please take notice that this complaint is a formal notice to you that I am requesting that you continue forward with my original investigation request and please send the results to me within 15 days. I therefore legally and lawfully refuse your " form letter '' thus giving you only 15 days not 30 more. I am annoyed and outraged at your accusation and I have researched my rights in regards to my credit file. Please expedite my original request immediately.
