The accounts listed below contain inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information. Under Section 609 and Section 605 of the FCRA, I request a full investigation of these accounts and demand their removal if their accuracy can not be verified.

Violations and Claims : Account Misreporting and Reappearance of Removed Accounts The account under " Online Information Services '' was initially removed from my credit report, yet it reappeared under " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' This is an unlawful act of reinserting disputed information without proper notification as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ).

However, you have failed to provide me with the required documentation or evidence of verification under 15 U.S.C. 1681g ( a ). This lack of transparency violates my rights under the FCRA.
