Consumer complaint received 2023-10-15
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TN
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681 section 602a ), it emphasizes the need for consumer reporting agencies like TransUnion, XXXX and XXXX to handle their responsibilities fairly, impartially, and with respect for consumers ' privacy rights. As a consumer, I assert my right to ensure the protection of my private information, as outlined in 15 USC 6801, which underscores the obligation of financial institutions to respect customer privacy.

According to 15 USC 1681 section 604a ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies can only furnish a consumer report based on the written instructions of the concerned consumer. I want to explicitly state that neither XXXX nor XXXX, nor the entity furnishing information to credit agencies, have my consent, whether verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or otherwise, to share my information.

Referring to 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ), I have not been informed by the furnisher of information about my right to exercise a nondisclosure option, which is a violation of my privacy rights. Additionally, the reporting of adverse information without my permission contradicts 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ), as adverse items should not be reported without authorization.

Pointing to 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A, it explicitly states that information should not be furnished to a consumer reporting agency if there is knowledge or reasonable cause to believe it is inaccurate. TransUnion, XXXX and XXXX are failing to maintain reasonable procedures, as mandated by 15 U.S. Code 1681e.

Furthermore, as per 12 CFR 1016.7, I am exercising my right to opt out of the reporting services at any time. This is in line with the broader legislative framework aimed at safeguarding consumer rights and privacy in financial transactions.
