Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX IL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX Dear Transunion XX/XX/XXXX I am writing to bring to your attention a serious concern regarding potential violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) and 1681e ( b ). Upon thorough examination of my credit report, I have identified discrepancies that raise questions about the accuracy and compliance with the aforementioned statutes. 
I have made multiple attempts from early XXXX  of this year and most recently XXXX in regards to inaccurate/incomplete accounts reporting on my credit report. I have received letters most recently XX/XX/XXXX back stating the accounts have been verified as accurate. I dont believe they performed an investigation required by the FCRA because it will be impossible for the mismatched data points to be verified as accurate and they have violated my rights under the FCRA act. Please see the inaccurate reporting accounts below and I demand they be removed immediately.

Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) of the FCRA mandates that a credit reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only to those with a permissible purpose. It appears that my credit information was disclosed to an entity without a permissible purpose, as outlined in this section. I DID NOT give written consent for any of this information to be on my report. Additionally, Section 1681e ( b ) requires reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy of consumer reports. It seems that these procedures may not have been diligently followed in my case.

I request that you conduct a comprehensive investigation into these matters and provide me with detailed information regarding the circumstances surrounding the unauthorized disclosure of my credit information and any potential lapses in ensuring the accuracy of my consumer report. This erroneous information has had adverse effects on my credit standing, causing denials and high interest rates for mortgage loans etc. I believe that your agency 's actions represent a clear violation of the FCRA, specifically Section 1681e ( b ) and Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ). According to the FCRA Section 1681n, individuals are entitled to seek damages for willful noncompliance with FCRA requirements. I am formally requesting compensation for the violation in the amount of {$1000.00} per violation, as permitted by the FCRA. 
Furthermore, I expect your agency to take prompt and appropriate corrective actions to delete all inaccuracies/incomplete accounts above. Please consider this letter as a formal dispute under the FCRA, and I trust that your agency will fulfill its statutory obligations to guarantee the accuracy and fairness of the information in my credit report. 
I anticipate your immediate attention to this matter and a timely response within the statutory period. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
