Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Arizona XXXX Date of Birth : XX/XX/XXXX SS # : XXXX TRANSUNION XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA, XXXX Subject : SECOND DISPUTE OF INCOMPLETE AND INACCURATE INFORMATION & REQUEST FOR COMPLIANCE WITH THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT ( FCRA ) To Whom It May Concern, This is my second formal dispute regarding incomplete and inaccurate information reported by your agency on my consumer report, which has resulted in my denial of employment and an adverse action against me. The inability to obtain employment due to this adverse action has crippled me financially and caused severe damage to my mental health.

I was advised by a legal friend that under 15 U.S.C. 1681a, Section 603 ( k ) ( 1 ) ( B ) ( ii ), this can be considered an adverse action. Despite my previous request, the matter remains unresolved. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) require that all reported information be accurate, verified, and legally permissible. I am demanding immediate compliance with the FCRA, specifically emphasizing the following legal provisions : 1. 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) Maximum Possible Accuracy The FCRA mandates that consumer reporting agencies ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they provide. The continued presence of inaccurate information in my report is a clear violation of this statute, causing harm to my employment opportunities. Your failure to correct this error after my initial dispute is unacceptable.

Furthermore, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in Twumasi-Ankrah v. Checkr , Inc. reinforced that credit reporting agencies must ensure factual accuracy and avoid presenting information in a misleading manner that could adversely affect the consumer. Reporting technically accurate yet misleading information violates the FCRA 's requirement to " follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy. '' 2. 15 U.S.C. 1681n Civil Liability for Willful Noncompliance Given your failure to comply with the FCRA after my first dispute, I am now seeking punitive damages as permitted under this provision. If this issue is not resolved immediately, I will pursue legal action to recover damages for your willful noncompliance.
