Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is incorrect. I have disputed this with the bureaus directly but nothing has been done and no steps have been taken to resolve these discrepancies.

As per Section 1681o of the FCRA, I am requesting that you address the inaccuracies in my credit report immediately.

I believe that your failure to accurately investigate, correct, or update my credit information may be a violation of this provision.

I ask that you take the following actions to ensure compliance with the FCRA : 1. Investigate the disputed information : Please conduct a proper investigation and verify the accuracy of the information in question.

2. Correct or Remove the inaccurate information : If the information can not be verified or is found to be inaccurate, I request that it be removed immediately from my credit report. 

Furthermore, if your failure to comply with the provisions of the FCRA is found to be negligent, I reserve the right to pursue damages under Section 1681o for any harm or adverse consequences resulting from the inaccuracies.

As required by law, please provide me with the results of your investigation within 5 days of receiving this dispute, or I will have no other option but to take this up to legal damages, Because i have been denied credit cards, auto loans, and given higher interest rates because of your Negligence to follow compliance. 

Additionally, I request a copy of the updated credit report, reflecting any changes or corrections that have been made as a result of this dispute. 
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I expect a prompt and thorough investigation in compliance with my rights under the FCRA.
