Complaint narrative:
Request for Removal Due to Lack of Debt Validation To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute the accuracy of a collection account listed on my credit report under the account # XXXX. I previously requested debt validation from the collection agency handling this account, but they failed to provide the required validation. Specifically the requested assignment contract chain and any other requested information. According to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 809 ( a ), a collection agency must provide verification of the debt upon request. Since the collection agency has not provided this validation, the collection account should not be reported on my credit file. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 611 ( a ), I am requesting that you reinvestigate this matter. The continued reporting of this collection account without proper validation is inaccurate and violates the FDCPA. Please remove this collection account from my credit report and provide written confirmation of this action. If the collection agency can not validate the debt, the account must be deleted from my credit file as required by law. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your response. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Hello. I currently have an account with US Bank but no longer want to have a banking relationship with them anymore. I believe that my account being under investigation is unjustified. US Bank doesn't provide any information as to why it is under investigation. They believe that its suspicious activity but I think otherwise. There are people who send money into other people 's bank account. I don't see a problem as to why I can't receive money in my bank account. US Bank is being misleading and unfairly to their customers/clients. There is no reason to be suspicious of a customer. That's not customer service. That's clearly discrimination!!

Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified items listed below still remains on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct. In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verifiedthat these items are being reported correctly? Who verified these items? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ).
