First Advantage Dispute Process: Disadvantages and Insights

The First Advantage dispute process doesn't offer reimbursement or compensation for lost jobs, missed income, or emotional distress.

Many disputes are handled by automated systems, which often overlook supporting documents and provide little clarity. It's crucial to understand that First Advantage’s process lacks transparency, and it may not resolve the underlying issues that are harming your career or housing opportunities.

First Advantage Dispute: How to Address Errors and FCRA Violations

Despite strict regulations on how information should be verified and reported, First Advantage often fails to provide accurate background reports, showing outdated criminal history for candidates and tenants, or even reporting criminal cases that belong to other individuals.

Our FCRA resource helps consumers not only correct their First Advantage background reports, but also ensures that First Advantage notifies other relevant companies about the mistake and compensates the consumer in full.

Reporting criminal or civil cases that belong to someone else on your First Advantage Background Check is a violation of your Consumer Rights under the FCRA Law.

Under the FCRA, even if a consumer has a criminal record, it must be reported with the maximum accuracy. First Advantage is required to accurately report dispositions, dates, charge degrees, and etc.

You don’t always need to file a dispute to proceed with an FCRA lawsuit against First Advantage. In many cases, the mistake itself is enough to file a lawsuit and seek both correction and monetary compensation.

First Advantage may share your information with other background check agencies and data vendors. Filing a dispute does not obligate First Advantage to notify the parties who received inaccurate information. To stop First Advantage from selling false information, consider filing a lawsuit against them.
