Dear Disputes Team,
I am writing about report CR-2208 dated September 1, 2026. It lists the same Acme Services account, ending in 7710, twice with identical opening dates and balances.
The two entries appear on separate lines but identify the same creditor and account ending. I am disputing the apparent duplication, rather than making a statement about other entries in the report. Please explain your findings and identify any additional information needed to complete the review.
I believe one entry is a duplicate. Please investigate these entries and correct the report if duplication is confirmed. Please send the results of your review to my return address above and let me know what supporting information you require.
Sincerely,
John Doe
What this letter is
A credit dispute letter tells a credit reporting agency — Equifax, Experian or TransUnion — or the company that furnished the information that an entry on your report is inaccurate, and asks for it to be investigated. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires agencies to investigate disputes and to correct or delete information that cannot be verified. Disputes can be filed online, but many people mail them because a mailed dispute with an enclosed copy of the report creates a dated paper record of exactly what was disputed and when.
What to put in it
- Your full name, current mailing address, and date of birth.
- The specific account, collection or inquiry you are disputing, with its reference number.
- Exactly what is inaccurate about it — wrong balance, not yours, already paid, duplicate.
- What you are asking for: investigation, correction, or deletion of the entry.
- Copies (never originals) of anything that supports the dispute.
- One dispute per letter where you can — it keeps each investigation clean.
Disputes can be filed online, but the FTC's own guidance is to put a credit-report dispute in writing and send it by certified mail, so you can document that the bureau received it. A mailed dispute leaves you holding a dated copy of precisely what you sent, and Certified Mail here adds USPS tracking and a delivery record. If the entry is not corrected, that record is the starting point for whatever comes next.

Good to know.
Which address do I send it to?
Each bureau publishes a mailing address for disputes, and furnishers list one on your statement. Give Genie the bureau or company name and it will look up a mailing address for you to confirm before you pay.
Can I attach a copy of my credit report?
Yes — attach the pages showing the disputed entry and they are printed and mailed behind your letter. Letters can run up to 12 pages; each page after the first is $0.49, and 6 or more pages adds a one-time $5.50 large-letter fee.
Is a 609 dispute letter different?
"609 letter" is a popular name for a dispute letter that cites §609 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the section covering your right to disclosure of what is in your file. It is still a dispute letter. Genie drafts from the facts you give it and does not provide legal advice.
