Issue: Written notification about debt

Subissue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Consumer Complaint: I am writing to express my extreme frustration and anger about the accounts on my credit report that I believe are inaccurately reflecting my payment history. I demand that these accounts be corrected immediately. Despite my repeated attempts to resolve this issue directly with the creditor and through your bureau, I have faced nothing but obstacles and delays. It is unacceptable that the creditor has failed to provide any supporting documentation to validate the debt, and yet the erroneous account is still listed as a late payment account on my credit report. I take this matter seriously and expect a thorough investigation into this dispute. I also anticipate a resolution that aligns with the laws and guidelines set forth to ensure accurate credit reporting. I demand that the credit bureau responds to this dispute within the stipulated time frame as mandated by the law. I withhold my consent for electronic communication and explicitly request that all responses be conveyed in written form through the United States Postal Service ( USPS ).
