Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian have failed to meet their obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S. Code 1681. I have repeatedly submitted formal disputes requesting investigations and removal of inaccurate, unverifiable, outdated, and misleading information from my credit reports. Yet, these credit reporting agencies have willfully failed to investigate, failed to respond within the 30-day FCRA-mandated timeframe, and failed to correct or delete inaccurate information, as required by FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) .

I am now requesting CFPB intervention for the following violations and unresolved items : 1. Inaccurate Personal Information Failure to Correct The following addresses are factually incorrect, not connected to me, and have been disputed multiple times. The credit bureaus are required by FCRA 607 ( b ) 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) to maintain maximum possible accuracy, which they have failed to do.

XXXX. Unverified Accounts No Certification of Investigation The following accounts are listed as charge-offs or late payments across multiple bureaus. I have sent certified disputes, yet they remain " untouched '' without any reinvestigation or resolution. This is a clear violation of FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ).
