RE: FORMAL DISPUTE AND DEMAND FOR REINVESTIGATION — ROUND 1
Consumer file of [YOUR FULL LEGAL NAME] — this is NOT a request for a "credit repair" review
To Whom It May Concern,
I am the consumer identified above, and I dispute the accuracy and completeness of information in the consumer file you maintain and sell about me. This notice is submitted directly by me, not by a third party, and constitutes a dispute under 15 U.S.C. § 1681i and, where applicable, a direct dispute to the furnisher under 15 U.S.C. § 1681s-2(b).
You are a consumer reporting agency as defined by 15 U.S.C. § 1681a(f). You are therefore required to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy under 15 U.S.C. § 1681e(b), to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation within thirty (30) days of receipt under § 1681i(a)(1) (forty-five (45) days only where I supply additional information during the period), and to delete or modify any item that is inaccurate, incomplete, or that cannot be verified under § 1681i(a)(5)(A).
I also invoke, as applicable to the items below: the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA, including 15 U.S.C. § 1681c-2); the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (15 U.S.C. § 1692 et seq., including §§ 1692g(b) and 1692e(8)); the Truth in Lending Act and Regulation Z (15 U.S.C. § 1601 et seq., including §§ 1666 and 1666a); the Fair Credit Billing Act; the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Regulation B (15 U.S.C. § 1691 et seq.); the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (15 U.S.C. §§ 6801–6809); the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act and Regulation X (12 U.S.C. § 2605(e)); the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (45 C.F.R. Parts 160–164); the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (47 U.S.C. § 227); the Higher Education Act as to any student loan item (20 U.S.C. § 1078-6); and the prohibition on unfair, deceptive or abusive acts and practices (12 U.S.C. §§ 5531, 5536).
ITEMS DISPUTED AND RELIEF DEMANDED
1. [SELECT THE ITEMS YOU ARE CHALLENGING IN THE BUILDER]
ADDITIONAL STATUTORY DEMANDS
A. METHOD OF VERIFICATION — Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1681i(a)(7), if you claim any item above is "verified," you must disclose the business name, address and telephone number of each furnisher contacted, the name and title of the person who verified it, the documents reviewed, and the date and manner of verification. An e-OSCAR / ACDV code response is not an investigation and does not satisfy § 1681i(a)(1).
WHAT I REQUIRE FROM YOU WITHIN 30 DAYS
1. Delete or correct every disputed item that is inaccurate, incomplete, unverifiable, or obsolete.
2. Send me a free updated copy of my full file, including all information in your systems under § 1681g, not merely a summary of results.
3. Provide the method of verification described above for anything you claim to have verified.
4. Notify every person and entity to whom you furnished a report containing the disputed items in the past six months (two years for employment purposes) under § 1681i(d).
5. Cease reporting the disputed items as "verified" absent documentary evidence, and mark them as disputed while the reinvestigation is pending.
6. Confirm in writing that you have not merely parroted the furnisher's response, which the CFPB and courts have held insufficient.
I am maintaining a complete record of this dispute, including certified mail receipts and delivery confirmation. If the items are not corrected or deleted within the statutory period, I will file a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, my State Attorney General, and the Federal Trade Commission, and I reserve all rights to statutory, actual and punitive damages plus attorney's fees under 15 U.S.C. §§ 1681n and 1681o, 15 U.S.C. § 1692k, 15 U.S.C. § 1640, 15 U.S.C. § 1691e, and 47 U.S.C. § 227(b)(3).
Do not respond by asking me to use an online portal, and do not treat this letter as suspicious, frivolous, or third-party prepared. It is neither. I demand a substantive, documented reinvestigation.
Enclosed: copy of government-issued photo identification and proof of current address.
Respectfully,
