Issue: Closing on a mortgage

Complaint:
I closed on my home at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, SC XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I am trying to figure out if my mortgage lender, Amerihome, approves home loans with inadequate insurance such as no water damage liability. In XX/XX/XXXX, the XXXX XXXX my realtor set me up with in XXXX changed my insurance from XXXX to Homeowners of XXXX and did not fully disclose there was limited water damage. My home recently had a severe water loss due to a pipe burst ( date of loss XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX the Agent is saying I had zero water damage liability when I first bought my home and now I at least have some coverage. Only when the Agent said this did I discover that my first policy, the one that Amerihome approved my loan with, had zero water damage liability. It's hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that a mortgage lender, who owns more of my home than I do at this point, would allow the insurance to exclude water damage ( i.e. from burst pipes ) when they have so much vested in the asset.

When I called Amerihome about this, they would only say that the policies I had and now have met their standards and they refused to provide me with a copy of their " standards '' in writing.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
I am writing to address a matter that requires urgent attention and resolution. On XX/XX/XXXX, an investigation was initiated within the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, during which my personal information was accessed from credit bureaus without obtaining my written consent or any form of authorization. This occurrence is deeply concerning and raises serious privacy and legal issues. 

Under the framework of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681 ), it is unequivocally stated in section 602 ( a ) that consumer reporting agencies must conduct their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and utmost respect for the privacy rights of consumers. I firmly believe that XXXX, XXXX, and Experian, as consumer reporting agencies, are bound by this principle. As the consumer, I hold the right to safeguard my private information, as further reinforced by 15 USC 6801, which emphasizes the obligation of financial institutions to respect customer privacy and confidentiality.

It is crucial to highlight that, as defined by the statute, a " Furnisher of information to credit agencies '' falls within the ambit of a financial institution. According to 15 USC 1681, section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), a consumer report can be provided only with the explicit written instructions of the consumer to whom it pertains. I would like to emphasize that neither XXXX, Experian, nor XXXX has procured my consent to disseminate this information, whether through verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or any other means. Thus, I hereby revoke any and all consent that may have existed, thereby withdrawing any authorization they might have presumed to have.

Furthermore, 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) explicitly states that Credit Bureaus are prohibited from disclosing nonpublic personal information to any nonaffiliated third party unless the consumer has been informed of their right to restrict such disclosures. Regrettably, I was completely unaware of this investigation until after its conclusion, which directly contradicts both the policy and intent of the Privacy Act of 1974.

I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter and your commitment to resolving this issue in a fair and just manner.
