Dispute your ChexSystems file by mail

If inaccurate information in your ChexSystems file is getting in the way of opening a bank account, this page helps you send a clear mail dispute to the right address. You get the current Consumer Relations mailing block, a ChexSystems-specific template, and a checklist built around the documents ChexSystems says you should include.

Use this page for real mistakes in your ChexSystems file, like a deposit account that was paid but still reported as unpaid, an account that was never yours, a fraud-related entry, a duplicate listing, or a mixed-file problem tied to another consumer. It is not for asking ChexSystems to remove accurate negative information just because it is inconvenient. It is also useful if you searched for ChexSystems dispute address, dispute ChexSystems by mail, ChexSystems Consumer Relations address, or ChexSystems reinvestigation letter.

Short lines that fit common ChexSystems disputes

• • This reported unpaid balance is inaccurate. I attached proof that the account was resolved.
• • This account was opened or used through identity theft and does not belong to me.
• • This closure reason is wrong and should be corrected.
• • This entry is mixed with another person and should be removed from my file.
• • This record is duplicate reporting for the same account event and should not appear twice.

Before you continue

• • Send copies, not originals, and keep a full copy of everything you mail.
• • Include your full name, current address, date of birth, Social Security number, and your ChexSystems Consumer ID number if you have already pulled your file.
• • ChexSystems says mailed dispute correspondence should include the information being disputed and the specific nature of the dispute.
• • Attach a color copy of your driver's license or state ID showing the front and back, a copy of your Social Security card, and proof of address dated within the last 90 days, such as a utility bill.
• • Add records that fit deposit-account reporting disputes, such as paid-in-full letters, bank statements, identity theft reports, fraud affidavits, court papers, or letters from the bank that reported the entry.
• • If you were denied a bank account, it is smart to request your ChexSystems consumer disclosure report first so you can mark the exact entries you want reinvestigated.
