Complaint narrative:
I have recently obtained copies of my personal consumer credit report ( s ) and have discovered questionable and/or inadequately verified data in my file at your company 's office ( s ), as reported on my reviewed files. I am concerned that this information may have been inadvertently or intentionally re-added to my credit report profile by your company 's office ( s ) following its earlier removal from reporting, without issuing the requisite 5-day notice to me as mandated by reporting regulations that you MUST comply with.

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), any item of reporting that has been previously removed can not be reinserted onto any consumer 's credit report profile without written notice from at least the accepting credit reporting agency ( ies ) /repository ( ies ) directly to me, the injured consumer, within five ( 5 ) business days of the alleged date of reinsertion. I want to inform you that I have not yet received any such notice or confirmation of the accuracy and completeness of your reported claim ( s ).
