They respond back on XX/XX/XXXX. Saying I didnt answer them back from letter they sent me before which I never received. They didnt send in the letter as proof. I am asking for Validation. I have a right as consumer because I didnt even know that this was on my credit report. Until just about a month ago. I have right to dispute as consumer because what they are reporting showing all kind of different dates and amounts with 3 credit bureaus is harming me financially. 1 ) The FCRA which I saw on the FTC and CFPB website says that if my information is being reported inaccurately.

This is formal complaint that you have failed to provide me with copies of any viable evidence, bearing my signature to my dispute letter deposited by certified registered mail with USPS. ( have attached certified letters that were sent ).

I have maintain careful records and for your benefit, and as a gesture of goodwill final attempt to have you clear up this matter. You have 15 days to cure. How are you guys reporting or verifying these accounts to the CRAs when it lacked underlying documentation. 
In XXXX, the FTC held that the FCRA barred a debt buyer from " verifying a tradeline disputed by a consumer when it didn't posses the original documents. FTC allegations was that upon receiving a CDV form from a CRA that the debt buyer ( s ) and furnisher ( s ) they can not use the PCM for verification does not constitute an " investigation '' for purpose of section 1681s-2 ( b13 ), when a consumer disputes the accuracy of information reported by debt buyer ( s ) or furnisher ( s ), they should either verify the information with the original documents bearing a signature within the time period set forth in the FCRA or take all necessary steps to deleted the information from the files of all consumer reporting agencies to which the information was reported within 5 business days after receiving the consumer dispute, notify all consumer reporting agencies to which the information has been provided that the information is to be deleted from the file of the consumer who has disputed the account.

Consent Decree Order, Section II. 
As per FTC opinion letter from Attorney General XXXX XXXX XXXX, you should be aware that a print out of a bill or itemized document does not constitute verification. 
I am again formally requesting a copy of VERIFIABLE PROOF ( of original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) you have on file ( Section 609 ( a ) of the accounts listed on my original letter. If not you must remove the accounts listed above. These accounts have hurt my ability to obtain credit.
