Complaint narrative:
RE : Immediate Removal of Inaccurate Reporting and Violation of Consumer Laws Account Number:XXXX  Dear SELF FINANCIAL/LEAD BANK * I am writing to formally address the glaring inaccuracies in the reporting of my account with SELF LEAD BANK. After reviewing the details of my account, it is clear that you are in violation of several consumer protection laws, specifically regarding the inaccurate reporting of my last payment as a positive payment in XX/XX/year>. 
* The report you provided falsely indicates that my last payment was made in XX/XX/year>, and even worse, it categorizes this payment as a positive payment. This is a blatant misrepresentation of my payment history and an obvious violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The FCRA, specifically Section 1681s-2, mandates that all creditors must report accurate information to the credit bureaus. By inaccurately reporting this payment as positive, you have clearly failed to meet your obligations under the law. 
* Here are the facts : the last payment on my account was not made in XX/XX/year>, and the payment history on your records is not an accurate reflection of the actual status of the account. By reporting it as positive, you have misleadingly painted an inaccurate picture of my payment history, which is severely damaging my credit and misinforming potential creditors or anyone reviewing my credit report. 
* Furthermore, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 1681i, if a consumer disputes inaccurate information, the creditor must conduct a reasonable investigation and make necessary corrections. Your failure to conduct a proper investigation and failure to correct this misreporting when the issue was first raised shows a clear disregard for consumer protections.

* I also want to remind you that Section 1681s-2 of the FCRA requires creditors to ensure that all information reported is complete and accurate. Your failure to properly report the payment status and misclassifying a payment as positive when it was not constitutes a clear violation of this law. 
* I am demanding the following actions be taken immediately : * Removal of the inaccurate and misleading positive payment report for XX/XX/year> from my credit history with all bureaus.

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 though your company claims to has verified this. 

Depending solely on your flawed e-Oscar 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 ( Experian ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, et al, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' 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 creditor/CA in question. Sending out a generic form letter through the e-Oscar system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is by no ones measure reasonable. XXXX XXXX XXXX
