On XX/XX/year>, I contacted XXXX customer service and spoke to ( 2 ) representatives who were unable to verify or explain with details other than assumptions of why they " think '' it may have dropped which did not make sense being nothing drastically occurred ( no new collections, debt, past due accounts, etc. ). I was then transferred to a supervisor after being frustrated, however both supervisor I spoke with ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ) failed to verify or explain the cause of the score drop. I was told by XXXX " sir you have spoken to other reps and as you know XXXX so the best I can do is file a complaint and escalate it to our IT Team who will look into this as an " error '' - complaint number was not given at the end of the call. The lack of transparency and failure to resolve this issue has left me concerned about the accuracy of my credit report along with having this stress and burden on my back as I have worked very hard to maintain a good credit score. 

XXXX FAILED TO DO THE FOLLOWING BELOW. 

The FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. ) - Notification of Adverse Actions : If a negative change, such as a drop in credit score, is based on information provided by a third-party lender or creditor, the consumer must be notified.
