Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX, Illinois XXXX DOB : XX/XX/XXXX SSN ( Last 4 ) : XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX Equifax XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX Re : Immediate Deletion Demand and Verification Request Multiple Accounts & Bankruptcy To Whom It May Concern, I am formally disputing the accuracy and validity of the following accounts and bankruptcy information reported on my credit file. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i and 1681e ( b ), you are legally required to report only accurate, complete, and verifiable information.

The following accounts contain multiple material inaccuracies, contradictions, and unverifiable data that significantly harm my creditworthiness and violate federal law. I have attached proof from my credit reports showing these discrepancies. 

Disputed Accounts and Issues : 1. XXXX XXXX Account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Conflicting dates opened ( XX/XX/XXXX vs. XX/XX/XXXX ) Loan term discrepancies ( 0 months vs. 74 months ) Inconsistent high credit amounts ( {$11000.00} vs. {$29000.00} ) Payment status varies ( Unknown vs. Collection/Chargeoff ) Contradictory last reported and payment dates Payment history and activity dates inconsistent 2.

XXXX  XXXX Bankruptcy Reference XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Filing/reporting date inconsistent ( XX/XX/XXXX vs. XX/XX/XXXX ) Missing closing date on Equifax report Incomplete and inaccurate reporting undermines overall credit profile integrity Demand : I demand : Immediate deletion of any and all accounts and information that can not be fully verified with original, complete documentation.

Full verification details for each account and bankruptcy entry, including : The name of the entity or person who verified the information, The method used to verify the information, The date verification was performed, Copies of all documents relied upon for verification.

If you can not provide the above verification details within 30 days, you must delete the inaccurate or unverifiable accounts immediately as mandated by the FCRA.

Failure to comply will result in formal complaints to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), state Attorney General offices, and potential legal action for willful FCRA violations.

I expect a detailed written response confirming the removal of unverifiable accounts or full verification within the 30-day statutory timeframe.

Thank you for your immediate attention to this serious matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX Enclosures : Proof of Inaccurate Reporting ( Credit Report Excerpts )
