This means the credit bureaus can not lawfully downgrade, delay, or treat CFPB.gov disputes differently than direct disputes. All statutory duties under FCRA 607 ( b ), 611, and 623 apply equally, including the 30-day reinvestigation requirement and the duty to delete unverifiable or inconsistent information.

Applicable Law, Guidance, and Case Law FCRA 607 ( b ) : CRAs must maintain maximum possible accuracy.

FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) : Reinvestigation must be completed within 30 days. 
FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) : Unverifiable or contradictory information must be deleted.

FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) : If verified, the CRA must provide a Method of Verification ( M.O.V. ), including the furnishers name, address, phone number, and records relied upon.

FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) : Furnishers may not report information they know or should know is inaccurate. 
FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 8 ) : Disputes submitted through the CFPB.gov portal are legally equivalent to direct disputes.

CFPB Bulletin 2013-09 : CRAs must conduct reasonable investigations and not rely solely on furnishers.

FTC Staff Opinion Letter ( Cass, 1999 ) : Unverifiable or inconsistent data must be deleted.

Cushman v. TransUnion, 115 F.3d 220 ( 3d Cir. 1997 ) : CRAs must perform independent investigations. 
Richardson v. Equifax, 2004 WL 862200 : Failure to meet timelines requires deletion.

Demand for Action Immediate Deletion of the XXXX XXXX XXXX account across all three bureaus due to irreconcilable inconsistencies and factual impossibilities. 

If verified, provide Method of Verification ( M.O.V. ) within 15 days of the verification notice, including : Furnishers name Furnishers address Furnishers telephone number Exact records relied upon in verification Deadlines 30 days : Reinvestigation must be completed with written results. 
15 days : M.O.V. must be provided if verified.

Preservation of Rights If violations continue, I will escalate this matter through the CFPB, FTC, and private legal action for statutory damages under FCRA 616617. This letter serves as formal notice of my preservation of rights. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
