XXXX ( b ) ; see also XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX & XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ), which holds that furnishers must investigate and verify the accuracy of reported information upon receiving a dispute. 

Additionally, under XXXX XXXX. XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ), I am entitled to " all information in the consumers file, '' including the sources of such information, which encompasses the chain of assignment and account-level documentation demonstrating NATIONAL CREDIT SYSTEM 's legal authority to collect and report this alleged debt.

The original account agreement or contract establishing the alleged debt. 

A complete payment history for this account. 

Any notices of assignment required by law. 

Without this documentation, I am unable to ascertain whether NATIONAL CREDIT SYSTEM has the legal right to report this account on my credit file, or whether the reported information is accurate, complete, and verifiable as mandated by the FCRA. 

Demand for Documentation : Within XXXX days of receipt of this letter, NATIONAL CREDIT SYSTEM must provide the following : The complete chain of assignment, including all bills of sale, assignments, or other documents evidencing the transfer of this account from the original creditor to NATIONAL CREDIT SYSTEM - XXXX.

Copies of all notices of assignment sent to me, as required under applicable state and federal law. 

Any other documentation in NATIONAL CREDIT SYSTEM 's possession that supports the accuracy of the reported balance, date opened, and current status.

Continued reporting of unverified or inaccurate information may also violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) under XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, which prohibits false or misleading representations in connection with debt collection. See XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX & XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX ). 

Preservation of Evidence : NATIONAL CREDIT SYSTEM is hereby notified to preserve all records, communications, and other evidence related to this account, including but not limited to electronic data, internal notes, and correspondence with CRAs or third parties.
