Complaint narrative:
I previously reported the account showing on my credit report as XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>, as an item not recognized or owned by myself and it was removed from my report. You all responded that it was not reporting on my account on XX/XX/year>, so it should no longer be listed as an item on my report today. There was no further authorization made by me for this item to be added back to my consumer report and I do not authorize or consent to having this item listed on my report. The previous request to block or remove was not made in error and was recognized as such by you all when you removed it from my report previously. I subsequently also contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX to validate the account which they were unable to provide validity of the account that they are reporting on my account. They failed to provide any documentation in which I have the legal obligation to be held liable for the account, the purchase of a charged off account does not obligate me to have any legal bindings with them or have this item listed on my consumer report.

Law Violation : Under 15 U.S.C. 1681g ( a ) ( 1 ), consumers are entitled to complete and accurate information in their credit reports.
