Sub-issue: Privacy issues

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I filed an identity theft complaint with the CFPB regarding the furnishing of nonpublic personal information without my consent on my consumer report. They responded that the information furnished was acceptable in accordance to the cardmember agreement signed when the account was opened, however the Cardmember Agreement that I agreed to in XXXX of XXXX was agreed to under FALSE PRETENSES making the agreement a result of FRAUD. Prior to agreement, I was unaware that the payment history is nonpublic personal information and was under the impression that the terms of the contract were legal. In addition, I am now aware of 15 U.S. Code 6802 ( b ) and USC 6802 ( c ), which states that I, the consumer, am " given the opportunity, before the time that such information is initially disclosed, to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party ; and the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. '' I was not provided neither the opportunity to opt out of disclosure of my information or an explanation of how I could exercise that option. Therefore, the transactions between Discover and myself, specifically the late payments, that were furnished on my consumer report are in violation of multiple consumer laws, including but not limited to USC 1681b Permissible purposes of consumer reports, and needs to be removed from my consumer report. It was not made clear to me that my nonpublic personal information, what Discover would call " payment history '', would be furnished, which according to consumer law is illegal.

Complaint:
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the permanent limitation placed on my PayPal account, associated with the email address XXXX. I believe this limitation has been imposed in error, as I have consistently adhered to PayPal 's policies and guidelines. 

I have reviewed PayPal 's policies thoroughly and can confirm that I have not engaged in any activities that would warrant such an action. My account has been used solely for legitimate transactions, and I have always strived to maintain a clean and trustworthy presence within the PayPal community. 

Given the above, I kindly request that PayPal re-investigates my case with a view to lifting the permanent limitation on my account. I understand the importance of maintaining the security and integrity of the PayPal platform, and I am committed to cooperating fully with any necessary steps to verify my identity and account activity. 

I appreciate your attention to this matter and kindly ask for your prompt assistance in resolving this issue. Restoring my PayPal account would greatly benefit me and enable me to continue using PayPal for my financial transactions without disruption. 

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. I look forward to a favorable resolution of this matter.

Complaint:
I have reported this XXXXXXXX XXXX  credit card account to Equifax because it has been reporting inaccuracies for years and the issue was never taken care of. This account is reporting a positive and current payment history, but it states the date of last activity and last payment was made in XX/XX/XXXX. It is also reporting as a collection/charge off, but has been reporting a positive payment history until XX/XX/XXXX. It is also reporting a high balance, but does not have a credit limit which can not be possible. 

How can this continue when it states under 15 U.S. Code 1681i - that If after a reinvestigation of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified the consumer reporting agency must promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information to reflect the results of the reinvestigation?
