Letter # 2 provided an attachment declaring validation. In fact, Letter # 2 and its attachment failed to validate alleged debt. The law requires a signature on an original consumer contract for a debt to be valid.

TRANSUNION failed to remove unverified and non-validated accounts : XXXX XXXX ( Acct. # : XXXX & Acct. # : XXXX ) and XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX 

TRANSUNIONs failure to remove unverified and non-validated accounts from my credit report prompted my request for the description of how the reinvestigation was conducted and how TRANSUNION determined verification of accuracy and completeness regarding the results of the dispute. 

Along with the request for description of how the reinvestigation was conducted and how TRANSUNION determined verification of accuracy and completeness regarding dispute, I also requested TRANSUNION to provide copies of any documents bearing my signature, showing a legal binding obligation and the name, address, and telephone number of each person contacted regarding this dispute. To date, I have not received a reply from TRANSUNION or any acknowledgment.
