Despite being notified through the credit reporting agency, the furnisher failed to : Conduct a proper reinvestigation, Review documentation I provided, Correct or delete inaccurate or unverifiable information, And provide a clear method of verification or result of reinvestigation. Instead, they verified the data as accurate without providing any proof or validation, a clear violation of their duties under the FCRA. Key Violations : 1.15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( D ) : Failure to conduct a reasonable investigation and correct information when notified of a dispute. 2.15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) : Failure to provide me with the name and contact information of the party who verified the information. 3.15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) : Reporting inaccurate information without maintaining procedures for accuracy.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting a formal dispute and complaint under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C.

1681 regarding inaccurate and unverified information being reported on my credit file. 
Account in Question : - Collection Agency : ConServe ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, Nature of the Dispute This collection account is inaccurate and unverifiable. I have disputed this account multiple times with the credit reporting agencies. Each time, the account has been marked verified, yet no documentary evidence or validation has ever been provided to prove that this account is accurate, complete, and legally reportable. 
Reporting agencies and furnishers are required by 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) to conduct a reasonable investigation when a consumer disputes an item. A simple automated verification response from the furnisher does not meet this legal standard.

Additionally, under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2, furnishers of information have a duty to report only accurate and verifiable information. Continuing to report an account that can not be substantiated violates this law. 
Harm Caused I became aware of this error while applying for a home mortgage. The presence of this collection account has harmed my creditworthiness and interfered with my ability to secure financing, causing financial and emotional distress. 
Demand for Action In accordance with my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681, I demand the following : XXXX. Immediate deletion of the above-referenced account from my credit reports with Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion. 
XXXX. Written confirmation from both XXXX and the credit bureaus that this account has been permanently removed. 
XXXX. A full investigation conducted with supporting documentation provided to me if XXXX continues to claim this account is valid. 
Failure to comply will result in further complaints being filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and the Florida Attorney Generals Office, as well as consideration of legal remedies for violations of the FCRA. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX I am requesting full compliance with the law and immediate removal of this account. Please respond within the XXXX investigation period as required by the FCRA

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding inaccurate and inconsistent information appearing across my credit reports with Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion. On my Experian report, my file shows an inaccurate name, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  and an inaccurate address, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX, which are not associated with me and should not appear. Experian is also reporting late open accounts with conflicting details : XXXX ( Acct : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance {$210.00}, Date Opened XX/XX/XXXX, Date Last Active XX/XX/XXXX ) and DEPTED/XXXX  ( Acct : XXXX * * * *, Balance {$19000.00}, Date Opened XX/XX/XXXX, Last Reported XX/XX/XXXX ). On my Equifax report, a late open account is reported for XXXX ( Acct : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance {$210.00}, Date Opened XX/XX/XXXX, Date Last Active XX/XX/XXXX ), and on my TransUnion report, late open accounts include XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Balance {$210.00} ) and DEPTEDXXXX  ( Acct : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance {$19000.00} ). These inaccuracies, duplicate listings, and inconsistent reporting create confusion, artificially inflate the number of negative entries on my credit profile, and unfairly lower my creditworthiness. I believe these errors violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires credit reporting agencies and furnishers to ensure all information is accurate, complete, and not misleading
