Complaint narrative:
I am writing as a concerned consumer to dispute several inaccurate and misleading items being reported on my credit file. These accounts are either unverifiable, incomplete, or falsely represented. This letter is not for correction it is a formal demand for permanent deletion of the following entries that violate federal consumer protection laws under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

The following account is being reported inaccurately and continues to cause reputational and credit damage. It is misleading, incomplete, and unverifiable under the law.

Violations : FCRA 611 ( a ) 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ), FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), FCRA 607 ( b ) 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), and 605B / 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2.

These accounts are being reported as charged off despite multiple inaccuracies and unverifiable data. Under FCRA 611 ( a ) 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) and 605B / 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, such accounts must be deleted when verification can not be provided. 
XXXX XXXX Balance : {$570.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$0.00} * * Furthermore, the following charged-off accounts each reflect debts above {$600.00} but have no Form 1099-C issued, making them unverified and inaccurate. This violates FCRA 607 ( b ) [ 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ] due to the absence of proper reporting for cancellation of debt.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Balance : {$31000.00} * * Because this debt remains unverifiable, I request immediate and permanent deletion.
