Complaint narrative:
RE : FORMAL RESPONSE TO TransUnion 'S INCOMPLETE VALIDATION DEMAND FOR PROPER INVESTIGATION AND DOCUMENTATION. 

I am writing in response to your recent correspondence in which you claimed that the accounts I disputed were " validated. '' However, your reply failed to include any documentary proof of validation or ownership of the alleged accounts as I specifically requested in my prior letter dated XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX. FAILURE TO PROVIDE PROPER VALIDATION : Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), TransUnion has a legal duty to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information. A blanket response that an account was " validated, '' without providing : 1. The chain of assignment or transfer of ownership of the debt, 2. Full GAAP-compliant accounting records reflecting receivables/payables from inception 3. A signed contract or agreement bearing both my autograph and the signature from the other party does not satisfy the statutory requirement of a good faith reinvestigation. 

Simply parroting information back from a furnisher without furnishing actual proof constitutes willful noncompliance with the FCRA. 

XXXX. REPORTING INACCURACIES AND DAMAGE CAUSED : As stated in my prior notice, I have documented evidence showing that accounts such as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Account Opened-XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Closed-XXXX XXXXXXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Account XXXX XXXX, XXXX Account Closed-XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, XXXX XXXX Date Account OpenedXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Account Closed-XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date Account OpenedXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Account Closed-XXXX XXXX XXXX, were securitized and transferred into asset-backed securities. Once securitized, ownership and custodial rights were altered, making any continued reporting of these accounts potentially inaccurate, incomplete, and misleading.

The continued reporting of unverifiable and inaccurate information has caused me discrimination, denial of credit opportunities, emotional distress, and financial hardship. 

3. TRANSUNION LEGAL EXPOSURE : If TransUnion continues to report unverifiable accounts without proper documentation, you are in violation of : 15 U.S.C. 1681i Failure to properly reinvestigate disputes.

15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) Failure to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy.

15 U.S.C. 1681n Willful noncompliance, subjecting you to statutory damages, punitive damages, and attorneys fees.

15 U.S.C. 1681o Negligent noncompliance, subjecting you to actual damages and attorneys fees. 

Courts have consistently held that CRAs may not rely solely on automated responses from furnishers when the consumer has provided evidence challenging the validity of the information.

4. FINAL DEMAND : Accordingly, I demand that TransUnion either : Provide full documentary validation of the disputed accounts as outlined above within 15 days of receipt of this letter, or Immediately delete these unverifiable accounts from my credit profile. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX Without Prejudice, UCC 1-308
