Complaint narrative:
Subject : Complaint Against [ Experian, XXXX, XXXX ] for Violation of FCRA Complaint Details : Summary : I am filing this complaint against Experian, XXXX, and XXXX for failing to provide a method of verification for disputed items on my credit report and for repeatedly sending stall letters despite verifying my identity. These actions violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and hinder my ability to ensure the accuracy of my credit report. 

Detailed Explanation : Failure to Provide Method of Verification : Under FCRA Section 611 ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ), credit reporting agencies are required to provide the method of verification used when responding to a consumer 's dispute regarding the accuracy of information on their credit report.

Despite my repeated requests for the method of verification, none of the three credit agencies have complied with this requirement, thereby violating the FCRA. 
Sending Stall Letters : I have received multiple stall letters from Experian, XXXX, and XXXX. These letters claim that my dispute can not be processed due to the need for additional information to verify my identity. 
I have provided all necessary identification documents, including my driver 's license, Social Security card, and utility bills, to verify my identity. 
The repeated sending of stall letters instead of addressing my dispute constitutes a delay tactic, which is not permissible under the FCRA Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) requiring prompt investigation of disputed information.

Violation of FCRA : By failing to provide the method of verification and repeatedly sending stall letters, the credit agencies are in clear violation of the FCRA.

These actions undermine my rights as a consumer to ensure the accuracy and completeness of my credit report.

Request for Resolution : I demand that Experian, XXXX, and XXXX immediately provide the method of verification for the disputed items on my credit report. 
I request that these agencies cease sending stall letters and instead process my disputes promptly and in compliance with the FCRA. 
If these issues are not resolved promptly, I intend to pursue legal action against these agencies for non-compliance with the FCRA, as permitted under FCRA Section 616, which allows consumers to sue for damages resulting from willful non-compliance. 
Conclusion : I seek the CFPB 's intervention to ensure that Experian, XXXX, and XXXX comply with the FCRA and rectify the issues outlined in this complaint. It is imperative that my rights as a consumer are upheld and that these credit reporting agencies adhere to the legal standards set forth by the FCRA. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
