Complaint narrative:
recently reviewed my credit report and noticed inaccuracies regarding accounts that are not being reported correctly. Specifically, four inaccurate collections instances are listed for accounts that I have always paid on time. 

Consumer reporting agencies are responsible for ensuring that all information is reported with complete accuracy. My report shows that a XXXX account was placed in a collection on XX/XX/XXXX, for the amount of {$550.00}. There is also an account from XXXXXXXX XXXX  placed in a collection on XX/XX/XXXX, for the amount of {$4500.00}. Additionally, there are two accounts from XXXX XXXX placed in a collection on XX/XX/XXXX : one for {$680.00} and one for {$580.00}. 

I have attached a copy of my most recent report highlighting these inaccuracies.

Complaint narrative:
I recently submitted a request for investigation of the above noted account, which you denied. I submitted sufficient information for you perform a reasonable investigation of my dispute. Unfortunately, you neglected to do so. If you had investigated properly the results would have proven that I have never been late on this account. Actually I am not sure that the account is even mine though your company claims to have verified this. Depending solely on your flawed XXXX system has proven to produce less than accurate and fair information. I request that you take a more active and accurate approach to investigate this for me. As in XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX, Equifax, XXXX XXXX  the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " XXXX  '' information from the creditors and collection agencies ... that they have to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the honesty/integrity of the XXXX in question. Sending out a generic form letter through the XXXX system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is by no ones measure reasonable.
