Complaint narrative:
I have been contacting all three credit bureaus since the year XXXX Regarding This account and all the inaccuracies they have been reporting since I have noticed since XXXX. I have disputed this account several times with all three credit bureaus and XXXX XXXX. I have requested debt validation, and I have never received that, I have requested a 1099C and notified them I have never received a 1099C. This account has been removed but also Violated the FRCA because I was not notified when it was reinstated. Over the years they have removed some of the inaccurate things but, continue to report inaccurate information. Some companies are reporting repeated charge-offs and repeated repossession. Each company always replies back to my disputes that, the account has been verified, and clearing it has not been verified, if they are reporting repeated charge-offs and repeated repossession on this account. They have not sought to get a 1099C from the company that is reporting the charge-offs. 
I have contacted all three credit bureaus, regarding the same issues and their reply would be, that they have verified the account as accurate. which having repeated charge-off and repossession on your credit file is illegal and damaging to my creditworthiness. According to the FCRA, all these companies that I have named above violate these laws. 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) : Obligates furnishers of information ( such as creditors ) to report accurate information. 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) : Requires credit reporting agencies to follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum accuracy. 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) Expedited Dispute Resolution 15 U.S.C. 1681i : Governs the dispute process and requires CRAs to investigate disputes. 15 U.S.C. 1681n : Provides for statutory and punitive damages for willful violations of the FCRA. 26 U.S.C. 6050P : Governs how canceled debts must be reported to the IRS and indirectly affects credit reporting practices. 26 U.S.C. 6050P : This statute mandates that canceled debts of {$600.00} or more must be reported to the IRS, and I should be furnished with a 1099-C form as evidence of this.
