Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX To whom it may concern, This letter is formal notice that you have failed to respond to my dispute letter of XX/XX/year>. Included in the letter was my ID for verification of my identity, please avoid requesting such information- it will not be tolerated. 

In case you were unaware, in accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g If the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period described in subsection ( a ) that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or any copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector. 

As you are well aware, federal law requires you to respond within 30 business days. It has now been over that period since the receipt of my letter. Failure to comply with federal regulations by credit reporting agencies are in serious violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and may be investigated by the FTC, XXXX, & CFPB. 

I am maintaining detailed records of all my correspondence with you. 

I am aware that you may have misplaced my letters or have failed to respond to my letter because of an oversight due to the high volume of the requests you receive daily. If this is the case, I'm sure you'll want to handle this matter as soon as possible. For this purpose, I have included a copy of my original request, and the dated receipt of your reception of the original letter. 

The following accounts needs to be deleted from my report as soon as possible due to your negligence : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Please delete these erroneous items from my credit report as soon as possible and send me a physical copy of my updated credit reports with the above items showing DELETED. 



Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Please be advised this is my SECOND WRITTEN REQUEST after the initial 30 business youve FAILED to respond. The unverified items listed below remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. I am prepared to take legal action. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditors documentation on file to verify that this information is mine and is correct, NOT JUST BY A COLLECTION AGENCY OR COMPANIES STANDARD, YOU MUST PROPERLY VALIDATE THESE THINGS AS THE FURNISHER OF MY CREDIT REPORT. You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) and under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified.

The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me for negligent noncompliance ( Section 617 ) if you fail to comply. I am a litigious consumer and fully intend on pursuing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA. 

I demand the following accounts be verified or deleted immediately.
