I looked at my XXXX credit report on XX/XX/year>, and noticed some incomplete and inaccurate things. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report, it shall follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates, according to 15 USC 1681 ( e ) ( b ).

According to 15 USC 1681 5, they are supposed to do this ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information ( A ) In general, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall ( i ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation; and ( ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer. According to 15 USC 1681s-2, they are supposed not to furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the account is inaccurate.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act this creditor has violated my rights under 15USC 1681 section 602 states I have the right to privacy ( 15 USC 1681 section 604a section 2 ) ; it also states that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions under 15 USCS 1666b ; a creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purposes.
