And the account XXXX XXXX. This information continues to come back verified and accurate. I've also made XXXX, XXXX, and Experian aware they must prove the accuracy of each item of information within the dispute and how they are in compliance with the law. 

In order for the late payments information on the XXXX XXXX account to be proven as accurate, Experian, XXXX and XXXX must have each periodic statement required by law for each alleged late payment.
