Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is a federal law that promotes the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information in the files of consumer reporting agencies ( CRAs ). CRAs are companies that collect and maintain consumer information, which is then used to produce consumer reports. These reports may be used by creditors, insurers, employers, and others to make decisions about granting credit, loans, insurance, or employment. Under the FCRA, CRAs must take reasonable steps to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. They must also correct or delete inaccurate or incomplete information. In addition, the FCRA requires CRAs to provide consumers with access to their consumer reports upon request. Finally, the FCRA protects consumers from identity theft and other forms of fraud by requiring CRAs to take reasonable steps to protect the confidentiality and security of consumer information. The FCRA is enforced by the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), the nations consumer protection agency. With that said, according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 611 of FCRA, you have a responsibility of promptly deleting any information which is inaccurate or incomplete. This is my understanding as well. It's important to note that under the FCRA, even if an account has only been speculated upon or never confirmed in any way, the burden falls on you ( the credit bureaus ) to provide evidence of its veracity before it can be placed on my credit report. Furthermore, the Metro 2 standard is a common format for reporting credit information. Banks and other lending institutions use the Metro 2 standard to report information to the CRAs. The goal of the Metro 2 standard is to make it easier for lenders to provide accurate and consistent information to the CRAs. This, in turn, should help to improve the accuracy of credit reports. The Metro 2 standard was developed by the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and is used by all major credit reporting agencies ( CRAs ) .The information in my credit report is wrong! Therefore, it can not be compliant with FCRA and METRO 2 standards because the information was never proven to be factual.

I've Sent in All id, FTC Reports, drivers license to verify i am who i say i am a living soul name by God Please remove them immediately and DO NOT SEND ME ANOTHER STALL LETTER, or I will have no choice but to take legal action against you!
