The response which is attached shows the XXXX inquiries and XXXX account were deleted. pages XXXX, XXXX, XXXX of attached letter. Yet when I log into my Trans Union account which I pay a monthly service fee too for the privileged of accessing my account these are all still showing on my report. I then called customer care and told the agent that these were still on here. She argued with me that the letter I have does not show any inquiries being removed and that I do not know what I am talking about. I asked to have this sent up for higher resolution and was told NO the only thing she could do would be to reinvestigate the items and wait 30-45 more days. This is a violation of FCRA, this is ridiculous when it was all ready investigated and should have been removed per their letter yet they will not take ownership of the problem and correct this.

15 USC 6801 requires financial institutions to protect the confidentiality of customers ' nonpublic personal information.

15 USC 1681 Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) stipulates that consumer reporting agencies may only furnish a consumer report with the consumer 's written consent.

15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) requires that financial institutions provide clear explanations of nondisclosure options before sharing personal information with third parties.

15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) prohibits reporting adverse items older than seven years.

15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) forbids furnishing inaccurate consumer information.

12 CFR 1016.7 affirms that consumers may opt out of reporting services at any time.

Therefore, I am formally : Revoking all prior consent for information sharing Demanding cessation of all reporting activities Asserting my right to privacy and data protection All referenced consumer reporting agencies and information furnishers are hereby notified to immediately cease and desist all information reporting and sharing related to my personal financial information.

" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "

I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report. 

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and may be the result of identity theft or other illegal activities. Attempting to enforce these fraudulent accounts is unlawful. I request that you expedite your investigation to prevent further harm, losses, or damages that I may suffer as a victim of identity theft. 

Moreover, under the Fair Credit Billing Act, my right to privacy has been violated, and this breach infringes upon my rights as outlined in The Privacy Act of 1974. Removing the inaccurate and fraudulent information from my credit report will help restore my privacy and prevent further violations.
