Consumer Narrative
I submitted a dispute directly with the credit bureau and requested a reinvestigation pursuant to : FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) : Right to dispute inaccurate information and receive a reinvestigation within 30 days FCRA Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) : Right to request original documentation for verification ( e.g., signed consumer contract ) FCRA Section 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : Requirement to delete any information that can not be verified with the original creditor FCRA Section 1681e ( b ) : Obligation to ensure maximum possible accuracy in reporting Despite my detailed request, the bureau failed to conduct a proper reinvestigation within the 30-day period, and the disputed information remains on my report.
