Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this complaint because my credit report contains inaccurate and unauthorized information that violates my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and related consumer protection laws. I have consistently disputed these items directly with the credit reporting agencies, but the issues remain unresolved. These inaccuracies are severely damaging my creditworthiness, employment opportunities, and financial stability. I am requesting the CFPB to open an immediate investigation and compel the credit bureaus and furnishers to correct or delete the information reported in violation of federal law. 

Address XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, AZ XXXX This address is inaccurately listed and have no verified relationship to my current or past residency. Reporting inaccurate address information misrepresents my identity and violates my rights under FCRA 602 ( A ), which states that inaccurate or obsolete personal data can not be maintained in consumer reports. I request the immediate removal of this false address. 

Accounts XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance Owed : {$1100.00} Late Payment * * This account has been reported with late payments that are not accurate. I have never been delinquent on this account, and there is no record of any missed payments from my end. Reporting late payments without valid proof is a violation of FCRA 607 ( B ) which mandates furnishers to report data with maximum accuracy. It also violates FCRA 611 ( A ) ( 1 ) as the creditor must provide verifiable evidence upon reinvestigation. I request this account be corrected or deleted entirely if no documentation supports the accuracy. 

XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance Owed : {$1200.00} Late Payment XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX has reported late payments that are inconsistent with my payment history. No proper notice or evidence was ever provided showing missed payments. Under FCRA 623 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( A ), furnishers are prohibited from reporting information they know or have reasonable cause to believe is inaccurate. This error has damaged my creditworthiness, and I demand deletion or correction based on verified proof only. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance Owed : {$6800.00} Late Payment * * This account lists a late payment that I dispute as entirely false. No factual evidence or documentation of such a delinquency has ever been presented. Under FCRA 611 ( A ) ( 1 ), I am entitled to a complete reinvestigation and removal of unverifiable data. Please delete this account if validation can not be obtained from the original creditor. 

I am requesting the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate these violations thoroughly and compel the credit bureaus and furnishers to permanently delete all unverifiable, inaccurate, and unauthorized data from my credit reports. These errors have caused substantial harm and emotional distress due to the financial obstacles and denials resulting from false reporting. I demand full compliance with FCRA 602, 607, 611, and 623, as well as FDCPA 805 and 809. I am seeking written confirmation from the responsible parties once these violations have been corrected and deleted from all reporting systems.

Company response to consumer: Closed with non-monetary relief
