Complaint narrative:
This complaint is being filed due to the continuous inaccurate, outdated, and unverifiable information being reported on my credit profile. These errors are severely affecting my ability to obtain housing, credit, employment, and financial stability. I have made numerous attempts to have these items corrected, but the credit bureaus have failed to perform a reasonable investigation as required under federal law. I am now requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) intervene and enforce my rights under the law. I am disputing multiple addresses, accounts with charge-offs, late payments, collections, and unauthorized inquiries. Below is a detailed breakdown of each issue, the applicable law, and supporting information. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  * Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} Charge-Off Law Issue : FCRA 623 ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( A ) prohibits furnishers from reporting information known to be inaccurate, and Section 611 ( a ) grants the right to dispute such data and have it verified or deleted Story : This account is reported as a charge-off even though it reflects a {$0.00} balance, indicating either closure or satisfaction of debt This inconsistency suggests the derogatory status may no longer be valid or verifiable and should therefore be deleted from my file XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} Late Payment Law Issue : As per FCRA Section 605 ( a ) ( 5 ), negative account history like late payments must be accurate and not misleading, especially when the account is paid off Story : This account shows a {$0.00} balance but continues to reflect negative payment history Since the debt is settled, this entry unfairly harms my creditworthiness and violates the accuracy requirement of the law I request immediate removal of the late payment notation XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Collection Law Issue : Under FDCPA 807 ( 8 ) and FCRA 611 ( a ), any collection must be validated and accurately reported Story : I do not recognize this collection account, and I was never properly notified or validated under Section 809 of the FDCPA As I dispute the validity of this debt, I am requesting deletion of this unverified collection item UNAUTHORIZED INQUIRY COAF Date : XX/XX/XXXX Law Issue : Under FCRA Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ), a hard inquiry must have a permissible purpose and my explicit consent Story : I did not authorize or initiate any credit application or transaction with COAF on this date This inquiry appears unauthorized and should be immediately removed from my credit report I request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to enforce the removal of the disputed addresses, the incorrect and unverifiable account entries, and all unauthorized hard inquiries listed above. The bureaus and data furnishers have failed to provide documentation verifying the accuracy or legitimacy of these entries and have not corrected these items after prior disputes. This ongoing negligence is violating my consumer rights, damaging my credit score, and affecting my livelihood. I respectfully ask for immediate correction and full compliance with the FCRA, FDCPA, and all related statutes.
