This letter serves as my formal demand for immediate action regarding your failure to complete my investigation requests.

Complaint narrative:
to address my dispute letters concerning inaccurate information on my credit report. Despite multiple attempts to resolve this issue through the appropriate channels, the credit bureaus have not acknowledged or investigated my disputes, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Even after multiple submissions, the credit bureaus have failed to provide any response, confirm an investigation, or correct the disputed information. This lack of action clearly violates the FCRA, which requires credit bureaus to investigate disputes and respond within 30 days.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I have been disputing multiple inaccuracies on my credit report with Experian for over a year. Despite my repeated requests, Experian has failed to provide a valid method of verification, as required by FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Instead of correcting the errors, Experian has engaged in deceptive and retaliatory practices, violating multiple provisions of the FCRA. 

Unauthorized Reinsertion of Negative Information ( FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ) ) My XXXX XXXX  XXXX  account, which was settled and closed in 2019, was reclassified by Experian as potentially negative with retroactive late payments ( 30, 60, 90, 120, and 150 days late ). 
This negative information was not previously reported. Once I disputed the account, Experian added late payments that never existed before, violating the reinsertion protections of the FCRA. 
Experian failed to notify me in writing within five business days, as required by law. 
Failure to Provide Method of Verification ( FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) ) Experian continually refuses to disclose how it " verified '' the disputed accounts, instead responding with generic, automated letters stating the accounts were verified. 
Experian has failed to provide the specific furnisher or documentation used to verify the disputed accounts, violating my rights under the FCRA. 
Unauthorized Reopening of Closed Accounts ( FCRA 607 ( b ) ) Several closed accounts in good standing were improperly reopened and reported with balances, negatively affecting my credit utilization and falsely misrepresenting my creditworthiness. 
Accounts affected include : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
Failure to Maintain Maximum Possible Accuracy ( FCRA 607 ( b ) ) Experian continues to report inaccurate, misleading, and outdated information on my credit report, despite my repeated disputes. 
Unfair and Deceptive Reporting Practices ( FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ) ) Experian intentionally altered my account statuses after I disputed them, which appears to be retaliatory in nature. 
The XXXX account, before my dispute, was listed under a dispute status with no late payments. However, once I disputed it, Experian added late payments that did not exist before.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX Email : XXXX Phone : XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX XX/XX/XXXX TransUnion LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX To Whom It May Concern : I am writing to dispute an inaccurate charge-off that appears on my credit report. According to 15 U.S.C. 1681i, as part of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is inaccurate, and the credit reporting agency is required to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to verify the accuracy of the disputed information. 

Here is the relevant section of the law for your reference : 15 U.S.C. 1681i : This law mandates that credit reporting agencies must investigate and correct inaccurate or incomplete information on a consumers credit report within 30 days of receiving a dispute. 
In addition, the presence of this incorrect information also violates other consumer protection laws, including : 15 U.S. Code 6801 : Protection of personal information. 
15 U.S. Code 6802 : Obligations regarding the disclosure of personal information. 
15 U.S. Code 6803 : Disclosure of privacy policies. 
15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) : Accuracy of credit reports. 
15 U.S. Code 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) : Exclusion of certain transactions from credit reports. 
18 U.S. Code 1028A : Aggravated identity theft. 
This charge-off is inaccurate and is causing significant damage to my credit report and financial standing. Therefore, I kindly request that TransUnion conduct an investigation and remove the charge-off from my credit report. 

To support my request, I have attached copies of my identification and proof of address. Once the correction has been made, please send me a copy of my updated credit report reflecting the removal of the inaccurate information. 

Thank you for your prompt attention and assistance in resolving this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
