Complaint narrative:
If you continue to disregard, fail to comply with, or lack substantial, satisfactory, and/or visibly evident proof of compliant reporting practices, I must caution you that this letter serves as my formal notice prior to potentially seeking redress in the nearest civil court through a writ of review concerning the aforementioned issues I suspect. Please understand that I am the affected consumer of your unverified or insufficient reporting practices. Consequently, I am disputing the assumed, yet highly conditional, reporting privileges for any and all claims contested within this consumer complaint. This statement demands your demonstration of authoritative, verifiable, compliant, legal reporting that unquestionably adheres to no less than the mandatory state and federal reporting requirements and statutes. My insistence on your thorough examination shall specifically encompass, but not be limited to, your adherence to agreements referenced within the FCBA, FCRA, ECOA, as well as all relevant laws within my state, proven to be sufficiently comprehensive in showcasing that your adequate statutory reporting occurred precisely as it pertains to any claim purported by you in my report ( s ). Of particular concern to me is whether any or all aspects of your claims are alleged yet demonstrate potential deficiencies, potentially deviating from your obligatory adherence to industry standards for lawful, fair, and ethical reporting, while maintaining an appropriate status. Undoubtedly, your obligation should be one of verifiable conformity to the Metro 2 Data Field Formatted Reporting Standards, as per CDIA guidelines!
