Complaint narrative:
I am writing to seek assistance from you regarding the removal of inaccurate and negative items from my credit report. Despite making this attempts to resolve these issues directly with the credit bureaus and creditors, I have been unsuccessful in removing the following items : I have disputed these items multiple times with the credit bureaus ( XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX ) and have contacted the respective creditors directly. Despite providing supporting documentation and evidence that these entries are inaccurate, my disputes have not resulted in the removal of these accounts from my credit report. 

The continued presence of these negative items on my credit report is causing significant financial harm and affecting my ability to secure credit and improve my financial situation. I believe my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) are being violated, and I am seeking for your assistance in resolving this matter. Thease accounts should be promptly remove immediately : XXXX. XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} - Please investigate the account name, date of last activity, and account balance. This information seems to be misleading. This will need to be removed pronto. 

XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : {$0.00} - Investigate the way this account is reporting the date of last activity, opening date, and the account name. I believe this information XXXX be inaccurate. I need this account removed NOW. 

XXXX. XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} - I see things may be inaccurate. Start looking at the account name, opening date, and high balance. I believe this information may be inaccurate. Immediate removal of this item is necessary. 

XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance Owed : {$750.00} - The payment history and status are inaccurate. According to FCRA 's Compliance/Obsolescence date determines when the 7-year reporting period begins for accounts that have been charged-off or placed for collection. Please delete this account immediately. 

XXXX. XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$140.00} - I requested an investigation and the removal of the charge-off status. No changes were made. No investigation was conducted at all. You had optimal time to review this matter and make the appropriate corrections, you elected not to. 

XXXX. CAPITAL XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$400.00} - The limit to this account was a fraction of the amount due as stated. That is utterly unfathomable! Had a proper investigation been conducted you would have seen the error and corrected it immediately. You failed to do your job ; you must now REMOVE THIS ITEM ALTOGETHER. 

XXXX. XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} - Please provide me with verifiable proof this account belongs to me. I request a signed contract which is the ONLY LEGAL authority that stipulates an agreement. Please remove it. 

XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance Owed : {$1400.00} - This particular account is undoubtedly placed as a charge-off account, make sure you tell me the reason why there is a balance indicating on the statement if its a charge-off. The balance is truly incorrect, if possible, replace it with XXXX or eliminate the item certainly.
