Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, AR XXXX XX/XX/year> To : Credit Reporting Agency Subject : Request for Removal of Unverifiable Account Dear Credit Reporting Department, I am writing to formally request the removal of an account from my credit report as reported by [ Equifax, XXXX, or XXXX ]. This request is based on the recent deletion of an account by XXXX, one of the four major credit reporting agencies. I recently disputed a charge-off for {$550.00} from XXXX, listed on my XXXX report, and following a thorough investigation, XXXX has completely removed this unverifiable debt from my report as of XX/XX/year>. 
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ), all consumer reporting agencies must ensure that information in consumer reports is accurate, fair, and verifiable. Since XXXX has removed this account after its verification process, I request that you do the same and remove this unverifiable account from my credit report. 
Supporting Consumer Laws : FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) requires that inaccurate or unverifiable information must be deleted from a consumer 's credit file. I am exercising my right to ensure that my credit report remains fair, accurate, and free of unverifiable information. 
Since XXXX has deemed this account unverifiable and removed it, you must take similar action. 
Additionally, under FCRA Section 623 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ), information suppliers must report only complete and accurate information. With XXXX having deemed this information unverifiable, I urge you to align its records accordingly. 
Please provide confirmation of this removal within 30 days of receipt of this request. If the account is not removed, I am prepared to pursue further actions, including filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and seeking legal action under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), including Section 616 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n ), which allows consumers to seek legal recourse for willful non compliance, and Section 617 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681o ) for negligent non-compliance. 
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter, as it directly impacts my credit report 's integrity. Please notify me in writing once this deletion has been processed. 
Thank you for your immediate attention to this request.
