Verified Disputes by the CRA's


Recommended Posts

The CRA’s are now sending me letters that they will not investigate a dispute because they previously verified it. I am considering adding the following notation at the beginning of my dispute letter to the CRA’s.

I am really unsure about the second paragraph. Although many people on this board have threatened the CRA’s, I never have done so because they have actually done at least half of what I have asked them to do (some more so than others). I have been firm and unwavering but I have never indicated that I would report them to the FTC or my state AG.

How will the CRA’s treat my future disputes if I begin including threats to report them to the FTC or the state AG?

I am interested in anyone’s opinion of this notation. I also included a slight variation of this notation beneath it.

Important Note:[TAB]

You are required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) to re-investigate my consumer dispute even though you have already verified this credit information. I am enclosing additional information about this credit item not available to you when you previously investigated my dispute.

Failure to fully investigate this dispute is a violation of federal law and such willful negligence will be reported to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and to the Texas Attorney General’s Office.

I use plenty of creative variations in my disputes.

However, I am getting the impression that part of this entire process is a crap shoot. I got a paid collection deleted for one CRA using but the other two ignored the same letter.

Like, I can send something written on toilet paper, but it depends on what the investigator had for breakfast that money. Maybe this is more random.
