Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports

I have contacted Experian before requesting the removal of certain records on my report. Per Privacy Act of 1974 ( 5 U.S. Code 552a ) ( 4 ) the term record means any item, collection, or grouping of information about an individual that is maintained by an agency, including, but not limited to, his education, financial transactions, medical history, and criminal or employment history and that contains his name, or the identifying number, symbol, or other identifying particular assigned to the individual, such as a finger or voice print or a photograph ; This includes consumer reports.

( b ) Conditions of Disclosure.No agency shall disclose any record which is contained in a system of records by any means of communication to any person, or to another agency, except pursuant to a written request by, or with the prior written consent of, the individual to whom the record pertains, unless disclosure of the record would be ( 12 ) to a consumer reporting agency in accordance with section 3711 ( e ) of title 31.

And 15 U.S. Code 1681 - Congressional findings and statement of purpose a ) Accuracy and fairness of credit reporting The Congress makes the following findings : ( 4 ) There is a need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy.

I have not provided any written requests to share my information with any other agency. Thus, Experian is violating these laws.

In addition to the laws referenced, per 15 U.S. Code 1681a - Definitions ; rules of construction, a " consumer '' is defined as an individual, and a " person '' is defined as any individual, partnership, corporation, trust, estate, cooperative, association, government or governmental subdivision or agency, or other entity. A " consumer report '' is denied as any written, oral, or other communication of any information by a consumer reporting agency bearing on a consumers credit worthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living which is used or expected to be used or collected in whole or in part for the purpose of serving as a factor in establishing the consumers eligibility for ( A ) credit or insurance to be used primarily for personal, family, or household purposes ; ( B ) employment purposes ; or ( C ) any other purpose authorized under section 1681b of this title. 
The " consumer report '' does not include ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. As you may very well see, in two different laws and codes, transaction history reporting is ILLEGAL, therefore I am requesting the removal of all balance amounts from all accounts on my report.

They need your written consent to add anything to your consumer report if you did not give this authorization that is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

In addition to the above, 15 U.S. Code 1681e - Compliance procedures ( a ) Identity and purposes of credit users Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section 1681c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title. These procedures shall require that prospective users of the information identify themselves, certify the purposes for which the information is sought, and certify that the information will be used for no other purpose. Every consumer reporting agency shall make a reasonable effort to verify the identity of a new prospective user and the uses certified by such prospective user prior to furnishing such user a consumer report. No consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report to any person if it has reasonable grounds for believing that the consumer report will not be used for a purpose listed in section 1681b of this title.

( b ) Accuracy of report Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.

By violating section 1681b for permissible purpose and 1681c for information contained in consumer reports they are also violating compliance procedures under this title.

I request that Experian take care of this matter as quickly as possible. No law states we have to wait 30 days to update the report.
