Complaint narrative:
I have obtained my XXXX credit report on line. There are items from U.S. Bankruptcy Court listed on my credit report. Per FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : If the Credit Bureau can not Validate the information with the original Creditor, they must remove said information from the consumer file.
The Bankruptcy Courts have also reviewed the Public record section and have mailed me a return letter which emphatically stated that they do NOT provide any information to credit reporting agencies, nor do they ever validate or confirm public records. It is the credit reporting agencies and other third party providers who collect information regarding public cases from public records. Public records information is NEVER validated by the U.S Court system due to the Fair Credit Agency Privacy Law.
My inquiry to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court confirms your Credit Bureau has never validated these public record entries on my credit report, neither will they ever be by them. They further stated they are not liable or responsible for any misuse or incorrect public records, nor the distribution of said information, public records may and often times are reported by third party sources unaware to the consumer and in most cases, incorrectly.
Considering this information indicates a Fair Credit Reporting Act Violation, I need all bankruptcy information currently showing under my name and or my social security number to be Permanently DELETED from my credit report immediately.
The XXXX Credit Bureau needs to provide me with all documentation associated with these Public Records Accounts bearing either a court order to place this information in my credit report, or my authorization of release bearing my signature. In the meantime to be in full compliance with the FCRA laws and guidelines, all the information listed under Public Records needs to be immediately deleted from the credit file you maintain under my name and social security number. Be further advised that I am closely monitoring my credit file. Per federal Law, you have exactly 30 days to complete this as outlined per the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623 ( a ) ( 3 ).
Per the Federal Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( a ), you are required by federal law to verify through physical validation of the original signed consumer contract and or judgements all accounts and public information that you post on anyones credit report. Otherwise anyone paying for your services could fax, mail or email in fraudulent and erroneous account information. As such, if this unauthorized public record information is not deleted from my credit report within the next 30 days, I will be filing a complaint to the Federal Trade Commission, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and Better Business Bureau.
