Complaint narrative:
I am once again disputing the inaccurate and unlawfully reported information on my credit file. Your handling of my previous disputes shows willful noncompliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and a reckless disregard for accuracy standards under Metro 2. Adding to the severity, the Equifax data breach compromised my personal information, which makes your continued publication of unverifiable and inconsistent data even more damaging and unlawful. 

I demand permanent DELETION of the following accounts : XXXX  XXXX - XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX You continue reporting this account with unverifiable and inaccurate charge-off data in direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act 1681e ( b ) and 1681i. My previous disputes were ignored, showing willful negligence and reckless disregard for federal law. The late payments and charge-off status remain unverified and inconsistent with Metro 2 standards. Given the Equifax breach and your failure to ensure accuracy, I demand this account be permanently DELETED from my credit file. 

XXXX XXXX - XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX I am demanding permanent deletion of this account due to your willful failure to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and Metro 2 reporting standards.

I expect written confirmation of these deletions within the timeframe required by law.
