I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter concerning the reporting of secured credit cards on credit reports and the negative impact it has on access to credit and credit scores. I believe this issue needs to be addressed to ensure fair and equal opportunities for individuals located in underserved and underresourced communities seeking ways to build and or rebuild their credit. As an individual who has utilized a secured credit card to build credit history, I have noticed that the reporting of this type of credit card on my credit report is having a marginalizing effect. Despite making payment in full utilizing my own funds, the presence of a secured credit card on my report seems to have a negative impact on my overall creditworthiness. Upon reviewing laws and regulations related to credit reporting, I have learned that the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) governs the collection, accuracy, and reporting of consumer credit information. However, there appears to be a gap in the regulations regarding the treatment of secured credit cards on credit reports and the CFPB priorities anchored in your XXXX XXXX Report to propel XXXX XXXX  XXXX and XXXX. I believe that the current reporting practices regarding secured credit cards are disproportionately affecting individuals who rely on these cards to establish credit. This marginalization could hinder their access to other credit opportunities, such as loans, mortgages, and even employment prospects. Additionally, the negative impact on credit scores can further perpetuate a cycle of limited credit access and financial inequality. At present the XXXX XXXX date XX/XX/year>, from Transunion documents I owe in excess of XXXX to XXXX which is incorrect. I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter as this account is Paid in Full. I request for CFPB to consider implementing regulations or guidelines to address the reporting practices associated with secured credit cards. The goal should be to ensure that individuals located in underserved and underresourced communities who responsibly utilize these cards are not unduly penalized or marginalized in the credit evaluation process by creditors and that it does not negatively impact their ability to access credit due to these reporting errors particularly if accounts are Paid in Full. I appreciate the important work the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau does in safeguarding consumer rights, and I trust that this matter will be given the attention it deserves.
