Complaint:
I, XXXX XXXX, understand my rights as a federally protected consumer. 15 USC 1681 was created to insure that credit reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. Under the definitions section of 15 USC 1681a, a 'consumer report ' is defined 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. In 15 USC 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) it specifically outlines items that are supposed to be excluded from a consumer report. Under exclusions, 15 USC 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( B ) it states : ( B ) any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device ; The definition of 'credit ' in 15 USC 1681, is the same as the definition of credit under 15 1691 which means, 15 USC 1691 ( a ) ( d ) The term credit means the right granted by a creditor to a debtor to defer payment of debt or to incur debts and defer its payment or to purchase property or services and defer payment therefor. Additionally, a credit card is defined as the same term from 15 USC 1602 which means : 15 USC 1602 ( l ) The term credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining money, property, labor, or services on credit. Therefore any extension, alleged extension, or approval of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device should be excluded. The follow accounts are being reported in violation of the above mentioned statue : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX AND XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Additionally, XXXX USC 1681b ( a ) any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : 15 USC 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. The credit reporting agencies do not have my written instructions to produce a report in my name in the first place. Without my written consent and instruction, the agencies are acting without permissible purpose. Also, using my social security information without my consent is a form of identity theft. I have not received any documentation from TransUnion in regards to my disputes I spoke with a supervisor in the fraud department by the name of XXXX. I informed her that I sent all of my disputes XXXX XXXX they were received by TransUnion on XX/XX/2021 and that my consumer rights were being violated her response was we will process it by XX/XX/2021 and she did not care. I informed her that I was recording the call as well.
