Complaint narrative:
I want to make it clear that making empty threats of legal action is illegal. I am genuinely considering taking legal steps against your company for failing to address the inaccuracies in my personal credit profile despite my repeated requests. According to my understanding of the law, you are obligated to investigate and rectify any incorrect information upon request, which you have consistently disregarded. That is a crystal a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act which provides a cause of action for an individual consumer as well as penalties and liabilities for both consumer reporting agencies and furnishers of information for non-compliance as a violation of its provisions. 

As I stated before, this is my final request for you to do as you are governed by the FCRA. If this the final request does not prompt you to conduct a proper investigation of the account in question, I will be forced to file suit against your company in the county in which I live. That way, you can travel here in order to defend yourselves. XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX.
