Dear CREDITOR NAME,

Re: Account Name and Number

As I have not heard back from you in over 60 days regarding my notice of dispute dated
<insert date>, and you have not supplied the demanded proof of the alleged debt, under
the doctrine of estoppel by silence, Engelhardt v Gravens (Mo) 281 SW 715, 719, I may
presume that no proof of the alleged debt, nor therefore any such debt, in fact exists.

In a good faith effort to resolve this matter amicably, I restate my demand for proof of
the debt, specifically the alleged contract or the other instrument bearing my signature,
as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must terminate
this collection action and correct any erroneous reports of this debt as mine.
For the record, I state again that as I have no account with you, nor am I your customer,
nor have I entered into a contract with you, I must ask for the following information:

1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 (e) and 15 USC (f) in
this alleged matter.
2. What if your authorization of law for your collection of information?
3. What is your authorization of law for you collection of this alleged debt?
4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in the state of
Florida.
5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including specifically the alleged
contract or other instrument bearing my signature.

You have fifteen (15) days from receipt of this notice to respond. Your failure to
respond, on point, in writing, hand signed, and in a timely manner, will work as a waiver
to any and all of your claims in this matter, and will entitle me to presume that you sent
your letter(s) in error, and that this matter is permanently closed.

You continued silence is unacceptable. Either provide the proof or correct the record to
remove the invalid debt from my credit files with the three primary credit-reporting
agencies. You are currently in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair
Debt Collection Act.

Failure to respond within 15 days of receipt of this registered letter will result in a small
claims action against your company. I will be seeking $5,000 in damages for the
following:

1. Defamation
 2. Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud
3. Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act

After obtaining the judgment against your company, I will obtain a Writ of Execution from
the Sheriff’s office in your county and I will begin the process of attaching property or
funds to satisfy the judgment.

For the purposes of 15 USC 1692 et seq., this Notice has the same effect as a dispute
to the validity of the alleged debt and a dispute to the validity of your claims. This Notice
is an attempt to correct your records, and any information received from you will be
collected as evidence should any further action be necessary. This is a request for
information only, and is not a statements, election, or waiver of status.

I affirm under penalty of perjury under the Laws of the Land for the United States of
America, that the foregoing is true and correct, to the best of my knowledge and belief.

Re: Account Name and Number

This letter is a formal complaint that you are reporting inaccurate and incomplete credit
information.

I am distressed that you included the information below in my credit profile, and that you
have failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum
possible accuracy in the credit reports you publish.

Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100% accurate credit information.
Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and
correct.

The following information therefore needs to be re-investigated. I respectfully request to

be provided proof of this alleged item, specifically the contract, note or other instrument
bearing my signature. Failing that, the item must be deleted from the report as soon as
possible:

Name of Creditors / Agency, Account # _______________

The listed item is entirely inaccurate and incomplete, and as such represents a very
serious error in your reporting. Please delete this misleading information and supply a
corrected credit profile to all creditors who have received a copy within the last six
month, or the last two years for employment purposes.

Additionally, please provide the name, address, and telephone number of each grantor
or other subscriber.

Under federal law, you have thirty (30) days to complete your re investigation. Be
advised that description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and
completeness of the information is hereby requested as well, to be provided within
fifteen (15) days of the completion of your re-investigation.

This letter is to inform you that I still dispute this debt. After receiving your response to
my original dispute letter, I contacted the original creditor who was unable to verify this
account as mine.

In my opinion, you have failed to validate this debt. I must remind you that I originally
disputed this debt within the 30-day dispute period outlined in the FDCPA and that I am
now also responding in a timely manner to your attempt to validate this debt. Because I
still consider this debt as "still in dispute" I do not expect to hear from you again
except to provide information or documentation to clear up my reasons for disputing this
debt.

I already advised you in my previous letter that I am fully aware of my rights under the
Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act and that I will not
hesitate to take all legal steps necessary to protect myself. Be advised that I am
keeping accurate records of all correspondence including tape recording all phone calls.

This letter is formal notice that you have failed to respond to my dispute letter of date. I

signed on some date.

As you are well aware, federal law requires you to respond within 30 days. It has now
been over that period since your receipt of my letter. As you are no doubt aware, failure
to comply with federal regulations by credit reporting agencies are in serious violation of
the Fair Credit Reporting Act and may be investigated by the FTC. Obviously, I am
maintaining detailed records of all my correspondence with you.

I am aware that you may have misplaced my letters or have failed to respond to my
letter because of an oversight due to the high volume of the requests you receive daily.
If this is the case, I'm sure you'll want to handle this matter as soon as possible. For this
purpose, I have included a copy of my original request, the dated receipt of your
reception of the original letter and a copy of the proof verifying the incorrectness of the
credit item you have mistakenly placed on my records.

The following information therefore needs to be verified and deleted from the report as

NOTICE OF INTENT TO FILE FORMAL FTC COMPLAINT

This letter shall serve as formal notice of my intent to file a complaint with the Federal
Trade Commission (FTC), due to your failure to respond to my two previous letters
requesting a correction to my credit file.

As indicated by the enclosed copies of letters and mailing receipts, you have received
from me by registered mail, a dispute letter dated {date of initial letter}, as well as a
follow-up letter, dated {date of second letter}.
I am sure that you are aware of the Fair Credit Reporting Act's requirement to respond
to consumer's credit report disputes within 30 days, and that the FTC investigates
complaints for failure to respond. I have advised you on two separate occasions, more
than 75 days ago and again 40 days ago that you are reporting inaccurate information
about me. For the record and your benefit, I will restate my dispute:

Line Item: {insert name of creditor, account number or line item number)

Item Description: (this info is found on your credit report)

Requested Correction: (describe exactly what you want. If you want an item deleted say
so and explain why. If you want an item corrected or updated, provide the correct
information such as names, dates, amounts and so forth and any evidence to support
your claim).

“The item above is completely (insert appropriate word: inaccurate, incorrect,

incomplete, erroneous, misleading, outdated) and needs to be corrected immediately. I
have enclosed a copy of your organization’s credit report dated {insert date of report
here} and for your convenience, circled the item(s) described above.

If you do not immediately take steps to resolve this issue, I will be forced to file a formal
complaint with the FTC. Furthermore, I intend to consider seeking redress in civil court
to recover damages, costs, and attorney fees, should you fail to respond.

Furthermore I expect you to supply me with a description of the procedure used to

determine the accuracy and completeness of the disputed information, provide a
corrected credit profile to me, all creditors who have received a copy within the last 6
months, and the last 2 years for employment purposes and the name, address, and
telephone number of each credit grantor or other subscriber who have received a copy
of my credit profile within the last 6 months.

If your re-investigation was negative, please supply the description of the procedure
used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information to my address
above. If you have any questions concerning this matter I can be reached at (insert

Dear CREDIT BUREAU NAME,

Re: Account Name and Number

Your company is currently reporting a negative listing to the three major credit bureaus
(Experian, Trans Union, and Equifax) regarding the above referenced account. Based
on my recollection and my records, I can find no reason for you reporting such history. If
you’ll review your records I think you fill find your reported notations are inaccurate.

The erroneous status of your credit reporting agency record is unacceptable and is
preventing me from obtaining necessary financing. Pursuant to Title 15, Section 1666 of
the United States Code, I formally request the following documentary evidence
pertaining to my account.

1. A copy of the original credit application showing the terms of the agreement.
 2. A summary of all account activities, including all payments made, late charges,
interest, date of payments received, date of payments posted, charges made,
and date of charges posted.
3. Copies of all documents and financial instruments used to pay the disputed late
payments.
4. Copies of all charges slips, invoices, promissory notes, and all other documents
proving indebtedness.
5. Copies of all documents sent to me regarding my account.

The information and documentation is critical and time is the essence. Within less than
thirty (30) days, I will be damaged partially because of the discrepancy with your
reported records. The above noted code requires your response within thirty (30) days.
Your prompt attention will be greatly appreciated. I hereby request that your response
be mailed to the address listed below.

If you find that your information and documentation does not support the negative
history reported to the three credit bureaus, I invite you to submit a completed Universal
Data Form to said bureaus in order to remove the negative notations. Upon removal of
the negative notations, I agree to hold your company harmless from any and all
inconvenience and/or damage related thereto.

I appreciate your prompt response and cooperation.

I am writing to dispute the validity of the above referenced item pursuant to the Fair

the item within 30 days. If the validity can not be verified, you are obligated by law to
remove the item.

In the event that you can not verify the item pursuant to the Fair Credit Report Act, and
you continue to list the disputed item on my credit report I will find it necessary to sue
you for actual damages and declaratory relief under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Because the Fair Credit Reporting Act provides concurrent jurisdiction in federal and
state courts, I shall elect to use the <insert jurisdiction in which you reside, e.g.

While I prefer not to litigate, I will use the courts as needed to enforce my rights under

RE: Formal Request for Verification Procedures

FCRA § 611. Procedure in case of disputed accuracy [15 U.S.C. § 1681i]

To Whom It May Concern:

I received notice that you verified certain tradelines on my credit report from the
following companies:

ACCOUNT NAME AND NUMBER

Please tell me how you did that. Who did you talk to at the original credit grantor? Did
you write them? Was a UDF form used or was this through electronic automatic dispute
verification? Did you contact them at the same address/phone number listed on my
report? The FCRA says that you have to tell me this in 15 days if I ask. Don't provide
the generic response of how you use various methods. Tell me exactly how you verified
them and include the full name of the person you spoke with.

Also, what is the date of the commencement of delinquency? The original creditor is
required to give that to you. So when is that? And when will this tradeline be past the
reporting timeframe? Don't provide the generic "7 years" response; I am aware of that.
Tell me specifically when these accounts allegedly became delinquent, and
specifically when they will be removed. Some of these accounts are reporting as
charged off as well as being included in bankruptcy. So, which is it?

Supply your response within 15 days or delete the tradelines.

Re: Account Name and Number

I have disputed the below items several times with you to no avail.
You sent correspondence stating the account in question “WAS PREVIOUSLY
INVESTIGATED.” I proceeded to access my consumer report via [Recipient Name]'s
website and make copies of the information pertaining to:

ACCOUNT NAME AND NUMBER

15 U.S.C. § 1681i(a)(1)(a) requires that each time a consumer reporting agency

receives a dispute, it shall reinvestigate free of charge, record the current status of the
disputed information or delete the item from the file within 30 days, beginning on the
date the dispute was received unless the account is determined to be frivolous or
irrelevant.

While the correspondence that was sent by [Recipient Name] indicates the account was
previously investigated, it does NOT however state whether the dispute was determined
to be frivolous or irrelevant.

It has been over 30 days since [Recipient Name] received my dispute and I have not
received any other notices that my dispute was determined as being frivolous or
irrelevant and yet the item still remains on my file with a last investigation. Based on the
previous information, I am hereby demanding deletion of the adove accounts from my
[Recipient Name] file pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1681i(a)(1)(a). I will NOT accept another
reinvestigation of the account, ONLY deletion.

[Recipient Name] has 10 days from the receipt of this letter to cure or else I will be
forced to immediately proceed with litigation to recover damages caused by [Recipient
Name]'s willful and negligent noncompliance of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. If the
account in question is removed from my files within the 10-day timeframe as previously
stated, I will consider the matter to be closed and no further action will be taken. I look
forward to an amicable solution to this matter.

Dear CREDIT BUREAU NAME,

Re: Account Name and Number

This is a request for deletion of these disputed items. I have attempted to have this
inaccurate and incomplete reporting verified by the furnisher of information to no avail. I
am respectfully requesting that you do what is legally mandated by the FCRA and
delete the account listing from my consumer file because it is unverifiable.
You received a notice of dispute from me resulting in you advising me that the account
had been verified. Knowing that the information could not in fact be verified, I proceeded
to dispute the information and request verification directly from the furnisher of
information, as the FCRA provides. After disputing with the furnisher, they have failed to
provide any proof or respond in any way. In fact - after THREE letters to them they have
STILL not responded which started over 90 days ago!

The FCRA states that information reported must be accurate and complete, updated
and verifiable. It also provides for a dispute mechanism that is initiated by the consumer
through the consumer reporting agency and the furnisher of information. As detailed
above, I have disputed the information for the referenced account, with both you and
the furnisher of information directly. I have exhausted all recourse provided for
resolution of erroneous information, but the information still remains on my consumer
report.

The FCRA provides a cause of action for an individual consumer as well as penalties
and liabilities for both consumer reporting agencies and furnishers of information for
non-compliance with its provisions. It is evident that the information reported cannot be
verified and therefore must be deleted as required. When a debt is disputed under
either mechanism, a notation must be entered on the debtor's report showing the item
as being in dispute. Again, this was not done and is a further violation of the FCRA.

Pursuant to the FCRA, if no proof of debt exists and the information reported is not
verifiable, it may not be furnished to the consumer reporting agenices nor reported by
them. The FCRA also states that consumer reporting agencies must accept written
proof from the debtor. Therefore, I am not asking for an investigation to be done, I am
requesting that the entry be deleted in its entirety as there is no proof of its existence
and the information presently reported is not verifiable.

This letter is in reference to my credit report that I purchased. Enclosed you will find a
copy of the returned undeliverable mail.

You will note the delivery address on the envelope matches the information provided on
my credit report exactly. The responsibility of the data furnisher is outlined in the FCRA,
section 623. In part, it states:
"The FCRA prohibits information furnishers from providing information to a consumer
reporting agency (“CRA”) that they know (or consciously avoid knowing) is inaccurate.
However, the furnisher is not subject to this general prohibition if it clearly and
conspicuously specifies an address to which consumers may write to notify the
furnisher that certain information is inaccurate. Sections 623(a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(C )"

You are hereby notified that the data furnisher has not clearly and conspicuously
provided an address in which to conduct a dispute of inaccurate information. If this
information continues to report on my credit files, you will not be held harmless for
knowingly reporting false information.

I demand deletion of this tradeline from my report. Your compliance is expected and
appreciated.

Please send me an updated report when complete.
