On XX/XX/year>, I noticed that my Experian credit report contained an inaccurate collection account from XXXX XXXX for {$250.00}, with address XXXX XXXX XXXX TN XXXX reported as past due as of XX/XX/year>. This information is incorrect and has negatively impacted my credit score.

I formally disputed this entry with Experian, but despite my request, the account remains on my report without proper verification. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit bureaus must remove inaccurate or unverifiable information. 

I request the immediate removal of this account from my credit report. If it is not removed within the legally required timeframe, I will take further legal action for damages of {$6000.00} due to financial and emotional distress caused by Experian 's failure to correct this issue. 

Please confirm the removal of this inaccurate account in writing.
