Consumer Complaint: The account XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX on my credit report was scheduled for removal after XXXX years, in line with the FCRA regulations. Furthermore, there is an alleged balance of {$1300.00} but this debt is uncollectible due to the statute of limitations. The statute of limitations in the state of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX To my concern, XXXX has diligently followed this timeline and removed the aforementioned account from my credit report. However, TransUnion and XXXX have failed to align with this standard and has not taken the necessary steps to remove the account, indicating a clear violation of the FCRA. XXXX XXXX has already been notified that the account should be removed, and that the debt is uncollectible. I sent dispute letters to both XXXX and Transunion over XXXX XXXX XXXX. I urge TransUnion and XXXX to rectify this discrepancy promptly by initiating the removal of the specified account from my credit report, aligning with the FCRA guidelines. You are also reporting incorrect data such as the date last active and payment history. Your immediate attention to this matter is crucial in ensuring compliance with federal regulations and preventing any further complications. I trust that you will take swift action to resolve this issue and provide confirmation of the removal within 7 days being that this is long overdue. Please see the attached credit report and the dispute letters which are dated, and time stamped.

Consumer Complaint: According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 section 602 a states : There is a need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, and partiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion are consumer reporting agencies and I am a federally protected consumer. I have the right to make sure my private information is not shared which is backed by 15 USC 6801 which states : It is the policy of the Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to prevent the security and confidentiality of those customers non-public personal information. The following companies are financial institutions by definition under that title 15 USC 1681 section 604 a section 2 states that : In general subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and in no other : in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. These companies the financial institution and the consumer reporting agencies XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion do not have my consent to furnish this information and they surely do not have my written consent. Any and all consent to XXXX, XXXX Transunion and this company whether it be verbal, nonverbal, written, implied or otherwise is revoked. 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) states that : A financial institution may not disclose public non-public personal information to a non-affiliated third party unless the consumer is given an exclamation of how the consumer can exercise that non-disclosure option. These companies never informed me of my right to exercise my non-disclosure option. Not only that 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) states : Except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information. Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years. These accounts are adverse items that they are reporting again without my permission which is against the law. 15 USC 1681 s 2 ( A ) ( 1 ) states : A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 15 USC 1681 e states : Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section 1681 c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title. XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion are not maintaining reasonable procedures. Also 12 CFR 1016.7 states that : A consumer may exercise the right to opt out at any time I am opting out of your reporting services immediately and indefinitely. Each company is required to report accurate information. Furthermore, before an account can be reported the credit reporting agencies needs written consent from the consumer in which it relates. None of the reporting agencies have any documentation that bears my wet ink signature which gives them the consent to report this account. Each month the reporting agencies are to send an opt out notice to the consumer giving them the right to opt out of certain information being reported. I have received no such request from the reporting agencies. SAID company is liable under the SEC to follow certain rules. By violating section 1681b for permissible purpose and 1681c for information contained in consumer reports they are also violating compliance procedures under this title. 15 U.S. Code 1681n - Civil liability for willful noncompliance ( a ) In general Any person who willfully fails to comply with any requirement imposed under this subchapter with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( A ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or damages of not less than { { {$100.00} } } and not more than { { {$1000.00} } } ; or ( B ) in the case of liability of a natural person for obtaining a consumer report under false pretenses or knowingly without a permissible purpose, actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or { { {$1000.00} } }, whichever is greater. I demand that the following inquiries be removed : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Consumer Complaint: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Fl XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint and Urgent Request for Compliance I hope this communication finds you in good health. I am writing to you regarding some substantial concerns I have uncovered during my thorough examination of the operations of [ Company Name ]. As a conscientious consumer and advocate for ethical business practices, I believe it is crucial to bring these matters to your attention for immediate investigation and resolution. 1. Opting Out Violation ( 15 USC 6802-6805 ) : Upon reviewing the legal framework provided by 15 USC 6802-6805 , which empowers consumers to opt out of financial information sharing with institutions, I have observed potential instances where [ Company Name ] might not be fully adhering to these statutory provisions. This has raised concerns about the protection of consumer privacy rights. It is my earnest request that your team conducts a comprehensive review and takes necessary steps to rectify any non-compliance issues promptly. 2. Credit Report Accuracy Infringement ( 15 USC 1681 ) : In the course of scrutinizing my credit report obtained from [ Name of Credit Reporting Agency ], I have uncover discrepancies that may be in violation of 15 USC 1681. This crucial federal law mandates the accuracy and fairness of credit reporting, placing a responsibility on entities like [ Company Name ] to conduct thorough investigations and promptly rectify any inaccuracies. Ensuring compliance with this law is vital for maintaining consumer trust and confidence. 3. CFPB Complaints Negligence : My investigation has brought to light a potential neglect in addressing and resolving complaints submitted to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ). Failure to actively engage with and resolve these complaints is a direct violation of CFPB regulations. I urge [ Company Name ] to conduct an in-depth internal review, recognizing and rectifying any shortcomings in addressing outstanding complaints. This proactive approach is not only essential for regulatory compliance but also crucial for upholding the reputation of your organization. 4. Privacy Act of 1974 Non-Compliance ( 5 U.S.C. 552a ) : Preliminary findings suggest a potential non-compliance with the Privacy Act of 1974 ( 5 U.S.C. 552a ). This federal legislation mandates precise management of personal information by government entities. Any deviation from its stipulations requires immediate attention. I strongly recommend that [ Company Name ] initiates an immediate internal audit to ensure strict adherence to the Privacy Act. Proactive steps in this regard will not only align the organization with legal mandates but also enhance overall data protection measures. 5. General Redress and Compensation ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n ) : The collective impact of these infringements has resulted in both quantifiable and intangible harm. In accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1681n, I formally demand [ Company Name ] to provide due compensation for the distress and material losses borne as a direct consequence of these transgressions. This includes but is not limited to the time and effort expended in rectifying inaccuracies, emotional distress, and any financial repercussions suffered. To facilitate a fair and swift resolution, I kindly request a comprehensive response addressing each of the highlighted concerns within [ a reasonable timeframe, e.g., 30 days ]. I believe that your immediate attention to these matters will not only lead to a swift resolution but also uphold the integrity of legal mandates and safeguard the rights and interests of consumers. Thank you for your prompt consideration. I look forward to your timely response. Yours sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
