Correct!
Answer:
D. Under the FCRA, when a reseller reeives a notice of a
dispute from a CRA, it must first determine whether the
disputed information was reported based on some error of
the reseller. If the information reported is incorrect based
on the reseller's error, the reseller should conduct a reinvestigation
and modify the incorrect information in the report itself.
If the reseller determines that it the reporting was not
based on its own error, it must notify the CRA immediately
about the dispute and pass on all information provided by
the consumer relating to the dispute. The CRA will then
have the usual 30 days to conduct a reinvestigation and
either modify the consumer report or allow the consumer
the ability to add a statement to the report. The results
of the reinvestigation must be provided by the CRA to the
reseller and from the reseller to the consumer. Notwithstanding
the reseller's obligation to pass the information onto the
CRA so it can conduct a reinvestigation, there is nothing
in the FCRA that prohibits a reseller from also conducting
a reinvestigation on its own.
