This is a formal demand for the complete disclosure of the method of verification used during your prior investigation ( s ) of the disputed items on my credit report.

Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing again in reference to a prior dispute I submitted, for which I have not received any proper response or seen any updates on my credit report. After continued monitoring of my report, the inaccurate information I previously disputed still remains unchanged. 
At this point, I must assume that a proper investigation was not conducted, as required under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) XXXX U.S.C. XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) ( B ) ( XXXX ). I am now requesting a full and proper reinvestigation of the disputed item ( XXXX ) and ask that you disclose : The name, address, and phone number of the data furnisher, A detailed description of the XXXX of XXXX ( XXXX ) you used, All documentation provided to or received from the furnisher during your investigation. 
Furthermore, it has come to my attention that Experian has faced litigation regarding sham investigations into consumer disputes, including failure to reasonably investigate, failure to remove or prevent the reinsertion of inaccurate tradelines, and failure to provide consumer-submitted documentation to furnishers. Such practices threaten consumers ' access to credit, employment, and housing and constitute violations of both the FCRA and the Consumer Financial Protection Act. 
Specifically, I dispute the following account : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/year> This account appears to have been illegally reinserted into my credit file after a previous dispute. If any information is reinserted, the FCRA requires that I receive written notice within XXXX business dayswhich I did not. 
XXXX BANK Account Number : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/year> This account appears to have been illegally reinserted into my credit file after a previous dispute. If any information is reinserted, the FCRA requires that I receive written notice within XXXX business dayswhich I did not. 
XXXX CARD Account Number : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/year> Balance : {$16000.00} This account appears to have been illegally reinserted into my credit file after a previous dispute. If any information is reinserted, the FCRA requires that I receive written notice within XXXX business dayswhich I did not. 
Additionally : I was never properly notified in writing of any delinquencies. 
I received no emails, letters, or final billing notices in accordance with FCRA requirements. 
The initial disclosures do not qualify as proper late payment notifications under federal law. 
I previously requested removal of the charge-off status and delinquencies, and no action was taken.
