Consumer Narrative
According to this section of the FCRA : The term consumer report does not include ( A ) any report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. As this entry reflects a transactional experience between myself and a couple of Creditors, I assert that such information may fall outside the scope of a consumer report as defined by the FCRA. Additionally, the information being reported is either inaccurate or unverifiable, which makes its inclusion in my credit report improper under 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2. I request that your agency investigate this matter and verify the accuracy and legality of this reported item. If the information can not be verified or does not meet the legal standards for inclusion in my credit report, I ask that the 30-day late payment entry be removed immediately.
