Complaint:
Subject : Dispute of Violations of GLB Act, FCRA, and Fair Credit Reporting Act I am writing to file a formal dispute regarding the violation of my rights as a federally protected consumer by the consumer reporting agencies, namely XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and Experian. It has come to my attention that these agencies have breached the provisions outlined in the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( GLB Act ), the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and the Fair Credit Reporting Act 's Civil Liability for Willful Noncompliance . 

Under the GLB Act, it is mandated that consumer reporting agencies safeguard personal information to ensure privacy. Unfortunately, the aforementioned agencies have failed to comply with the GLB Act, thereby putting my personal information at risk and compromising my privacy. 

Furthermore, the consumer reporting agencies have violated the FCRA, particularly 15 U.S. Code 6801, which pertains to the protection of nonpublic personal information. As a result, my rights as a consumer have been compromised and I am experiencing direct harm, which is inhibiting my ability to establish good credit and acquire a rental property. 

Additionally, the agencies have disregarded key provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which addresses civil liability for willful noncompliance. Their actions not only demonstrate negligence but also a willful disregard for the laws put in place to protect consumers like myself. 

Moreover, the agencies have violated 15 U.S. Code 1681a, which outlines definitions and rules of construction within the Fair Credit Reporting Act. By neglecting to adhere to these definitions and rules, the agencies have further compromised the accuracy and integrity of consumer reports, which has significant consequences for my financial well-being. 

Furthermore, the agencies have failed to comply with 15 U.S. Code 1681b, which governs the permissible purposes of consumer reports. By unlawfully sharing or providing access to my personal information, the agencies have damaged my ability to establish good credit and secure a rental property. 

In light of these violations, I kindly request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to thoroughly investigate this matter and take appropriate action against these consumer reporting agencies. Additionally, I request that you take the necessary steps to ensure my personal information is protected and that the agencies are held accountable for their actions. 

I am providing documentation evidence necessary to support my claims. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will prioritize the resolution of this matter in a timely and efficient manner to safeguard the rights and privacy of consumers. 



Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.
