Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the recent response provided in regard to my complaint filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) concerning the inaccurate reporting of a bankruptcy on my credit file. I have serious concerns about the validity of credit bureaus verification process and the credibility of the information allegedly used to substantiate this reporting. The CFPB response states that the disputed public record, labeled as XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX AS REPORTED, has been reviewed and verified. However, I have obtained clear, written confirmation from the relevant court XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX that they do not report or furnish bankruptcy proceedings information to credit reporting agencies. This official statement from the court raises serious questions about who, in fact, provided the information used in your " verification '' process. Furthermore, I contacted XXXX, a known third-party data provider, and they confirmed that they have no record of the bankruptcy account in question. This evidence contradicts any claim that the information was verified as reported. Given that : 1. 2. The court itself has stated it does not report information to credit bureaus. XXXX, a potential data source, has confirmed no record of the account. It is clear that TransUnion lacks a reliable and valid source to justify the continued reporting of this bankruptcy on my credit file. This failure in the verification process constitutes a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under Section 611, which requires that consumer reporting agencies conduct a reasonable investigation to ensure the accuracy of information included in consumer files.

She took my mothers government-issued ID during the appointment for no clear reason. When we later asked for a refund, she refused, then texted us at XXXX XXXX  demanding we come back to her home to sign legal paperwork in exchange for our money back. This felt unsafe and coercive. 

I confirmed through the Florida Department of Health that she is not licensed. She is a convicted felon impersonating a medical professional and running an illegal medspa. The same home hosts another illegal business called XXXX XXXX, where additional unlicensed people are doing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

She is taking payments across multiple platforms including XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX. This is not a one-time incident. It is a coordinated criminal setup that could easily kill or permanently disfigure someone. 

I reported this as criminal medical fraud and a threat to public safety. XXXX  denied my dispute with no escalation or investigation. This is not a service issue. This is a felony. I have reported her to the Florida Department of Health and the Attorney General, and I am now filing with the CFPB.

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing again regarding my previous dispute request for the blocking of fraudulent information from my credit report, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2. As of today, it has been more than XXXX business days, and you have failed to take any action on this matter. This is an unacceptable delay and a violation of the law.

As per the FCRA, you are required to block this information within XXXX business days of receiving my request-yet here we are, with no action taken. 
I demand that you immediately block this fraudulent account from my credit report and send me written confirmation that it has been done. If you fail to do so within the next XXXX hours, I will be forced to escalate this matter with the appropriate regulatory authorities and pursue legal action for non-compliance. 
Additionally, if you claim that you can not fulfill my request, you must provide a clear and detailed explanation as to why this can not be done. 
I expect prompt resolution of this issue, and I will not tolerate any further delay.
