XXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX Re : Formal Dispute US Dept of Education / DP of Education / U S Dept of ED/XXXX Account Number : XXXX To Whom It May Concern : This letter is a formal dispute pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) regarding the above-referenced account. My credit report contains multiple factual inaccuracies and inconsistencies across the three credit reporting agencies. 

Detailed Inconsistencies : 1. Creditor Name : TransUnion US Dept Ed Equifax DP of Education Experian U S Dept of EDXXXX XXXX XXXX Date of Last Activity : TransUnion XX/XX/XXXX Equifax XX/XX/XXXX Experian XX/XX/XXXX XXXX.

FCRA 607 ( b ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ) Consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy. 

FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) Requires reinvestigation of disputed information and deletion if unverifiable.

Cushman v. TransUnion Corp., 115 F.3d 220 ( 3rd Cir. 1997 ) CRA must go beyond parroting the furnishers response and conduct a reasonable investigation.

Richardson v. Fleet Bank, 190 F. Supp. 2d 81 ( D. Mass. 2001 ) Inconsistent and contradictory reporting violates the accuracy requirement under the FCRA.

Additional Requirements : This dispute is being submitted via CFPB.gov, which is governed under the same FCRA laws as direct disputes. Per FCRA 611 ( a ) and CFPB guidance, there is no difference in legal obligation between disputes submitted directly to a CRA and those submitted via CFPB. Both require full compliance, reinvestigation, and accuracy assurance.

You have 30 days from the date of receipt of this dispute to respond per FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Any verification or correction received after the statutory period constitutes a violation.

If you verify the account as accurate, I am demanding a Method of Verification under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ), including : The name, address, and contact information of the furnisher.

All documentation you relied upon to verify the account.

The procedure used in your investigation.

Do not send me a generic response. A vague verified statement without documented proof is unacceptable and considered noncompliance with Cushman v. TransUnion and the FCRA.

Demand for Resolution : Given the multiple inconsistencies and contradictions in how this account is reported across all three bureaus, I am demanding immediate deletion of this account from my credit report. If you can not verify with proper documentation from the original creditor, it must be removed. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
