Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, Ive noticed several deviations from mandatory reporting standards therefore the data in my report can not be accurate and complete! That said, I deny your allegations and challenge you to provide proof that you have the right to report this incomplete negative information on my credit report. Per 15 U.S.C 1681e Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. According to 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) requires furnishers to : Furnish information concerning accounts or other relationships with a consumer that has integrity. 
Furnish information about accounts or other relationships with an accurate consumer. 
C - Conduct reasonable investigations of consumer disputes According to XXXX, to make a lawful report, you must follow the XXXX XXXX compliance standards. 
Also as stated in the XXXX Any Deviation From These Standards Jeopardizes The Integrity of The Data. This means that any mistakes in reporting claims can make the information less accurate and affect the accuracy of federally regulated reports. Therefore, I am invoking my rights to challenge these inaccurate and non-compliant items. Neglecting my demand will only prove that you DO NOT care about my rights as a consumer. Its NOT FAIR for you to report information that isnt confirmed to be ethical and meets the standards of certified reporting. Again, I am challenging these claims and asking for proof of the proper reporting standards. You are violating my rights! I have listed the concerns about your reporting in this document. It's not complete and does not meet my standards according to law, you must certify all aspects of required FCRAXXXX XXXX XXXX compliance which is done truthfully, correctly ( promptly ), completely, AND accurately as well - or else I would have to escalate these issues to the CFPB , FTC and my Attorney General. By 15 USC 1681c-2 c ( a ), it is imperative that you, as a credit reporting agency, take immediate action to block and remove all information associated with this identity theft from my credit report. This statute mandates that credit reporting agencies must promptly address such requests within four business days of receiving a complaint that includes the following information : XXXX XXXX  - XXXX - " You Violated The United States Code Law 15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports ( a ) In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) By the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates.
