Complaint:
I have received my credit report which suggests that I may have owed you something in the past or present. However, there is no evidence to support your claim, so I request that you dismiss all claims and remove any harmful reports against me. Specifically, I request that you remove any current reported items that are potentially lacking mandatory physical document evidence to verify the truth and accuracy of the claim, as well as any evidence of compliance with the certified Metro 2 format reporting standards. 
I would like to make it clear that I am aware that you can not force me to interact with you in any way without legal authority or a written agreement between us. If you continue to harm me, it will be considered harassment or even extortion, which is a criminal offense in my state of residence. Any such behavior will compel me to take appropriate legal action. Therefore, I request that you rectify any fraudulent or deceptive practices related to my current consumer credit profile history by removing any delinquent reported items.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
It appears that your financial institution may have violated federal laws related to the sharing of your personal financial information without providing you with the opportunity to opt-out. According to 15 USC 6801 ( a ), financial institutions are required to notify consumers of their information sharing practices and offer the right to opt-out of certain sharing.

Additionally, 15 USC 6809 ( 4 ) ( A ) defines " nonpublic personal information '' as personally identifiable financial information obtained from consumers, and 15 USC 6809 ( 5 ) defines " nonaffiliated third party '' as an entity not affiliated with the financial institution. 

Based on these definitions, it seems that XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX are considered nonaffiliated third parties. If your financial institution admits that they are affiliated, they may still be in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Furthermore, 15 USC 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( ii ) states that consumer reports should not include information communicated among entities related by common ownership or corporate control unless clearly and conspicuously disclosed to the consumer with the opportunity to opt-out.

In conclusion, your financial institution has infringed on my right to privacy and potentially violated multiple federal laws regarding the sharing of my personal financial information. I demand

Complaint:
RE : XXXX I am in receipt of a letter dated XX/XX/2023 from XXXX in response to my demand requesting removal of accounting details, transactions and experiences be removed from my consumer reports as well as remarks and comments that are injuring me as a consumer. Pursuant to Federal Law, ( 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ) and experiences are to be excluded from consumer reports and more importantly, proper disclosures are to be provided in a clear and conspicuous manner affording the Consumer opportunity to opt out of said consumer reporting all together. XXXX has not provided me any annual disclosures or opportunities to opt out of reporting or furnishing this information to any of the consumer reporting agencies. I am demanding XXXX provide me with proof they have provided me with any disclosures regarding my consumer right to opt out of their Customer Agreement. I was never given any clear and conspicuous instruction as to how I could exercise that non disclosure option in the first place. XXXX has assumed they have my expressed or implied permission to do so. That is not the case. Corporate policy does not supersede law. Failure to provide me with the proper disclosures is a violation of law and Consent is what makes the law. XXXX does not have my consent to report this information, nor have they provided any proof of authority to do so. A contract founded on a base and unlawful consideration is null. Every consent involves a submission, but a mere submission does not necessarily involve consent. I am in receipt of copies of the loan modification documents containing account information, however, it does not even contain the original source of funds being loaned out. It also does not provide any disclosure or reflect accurate information you are currently reporting to the credit agencies : Equifax, XXXX and XXXX. If XXXX can not provide this, then the debt can not be validated and you are legally and lawfully required to delete the account from my consumer report. Also, provide the contract and signed disclosure where I agreed for my nonpublic, personal information and/or transactions to be furnished on my consumer report. I am again asking for documentation where you provided me the option to Opt-out from such reporting. I have already asked for this information to be removed from my consumer reports ; as it is false and being reported without my consent. XXXX states : " they are reporting the loan correctly '' as evidenced on the first page of your response dated XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. Assumptions are not facts. Pursuant to : 15 USC 6801 ( B ) 3, 15 USC 6802, 15 USC 6803, 17 CFR 248.124, 17 CFR248.6 ( a ) 6, 17 CFR subsection 248.7 you are violating my consumer rights and breaking federal law.
