The Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 section 602 states " There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. '' XXXX, XXXX and Experian are consumer reporting agencies and I am the Consumer. I have the right to make sure that my private information isn't shared, this is backed by 15 USC 6801 which reads " It is the policy of the Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. '' XXXX is a financial institution by definition per that title. 15 USC 1681 section 604 a section 2 reads that " In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. '' XXXX XXXX XXXX the financial institution and the Consumer reporting agencies XXXX XXXX and Experian do not have my consent to furnish this information and they surely do not have my written consent. Any and all consent to XXXX, Experian, XXXX XXXX XXXX whether it be verbal, non-verbal, written, implied or otherwise is revoked. 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) states that " A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. '' XXXX XXXX XXXX never informed me of my right to exercise my nondisclosure option. Furthermore, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) reads '' Except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years. '' This account is an adverse item they are reporting again without my permission which is against the law.

15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A states " A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 15 U.S. Code 1681e states '' Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section 1681c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title. XXXX XXXX and Experian are not maintaining reasonable procedures. Also 12 CFR 1016.7 states that " A consumer may exercise the right to opt out at any time. '' I am opting out of your reporting services of any adverse items. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX can not collect on a discharged debt. This is now considered a certificate of indebtedness per the IRS and income can not be reported. The IRS Clearly defines a charge off as Gross or Ordinary income, income does not get reported on the credit report which in fact makes reporting of this account inaccurate. By Definition, the IRS clearly states a cancelled debt or charge off is Income. The reporting of this account as a debt is inaccurate. I never received a 1099-C from XXXX XXXX XXXX for the cancelled debt of { { {$810.00} } } in order to file as ordinary income. XXXX XXXX XXXX is clearly writing off debt with the IRS without sending out 1099-C as required by the IRS for debts greater than { { {$600.00} } }. This is unsatisfactory. XXXX XXXX XXXX has been HEREBY PUT ON NOTICE that they are furnishing incorrect inaccurate information. In XXXX XXXX XXXX terms and conditions they agreed not to share my information with non affiliates. Experian, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX are not an affiliate of XXXX XXXX XXXX nor are they " bureaus ''. The only true credit bureau is the CFPB and they DO NOT furnish consumer reports as stated in federal law. I have a right to privacy and Per the Privacy Act of XXXX as a federally protected consumer now I am revoking any and all authorization I the consumer may have given you written, non written, verbal, and nonverbal per 5 U.S. Code 552a. 

I reached out to Experian, XXXX, XXXX, & XXXX on numerous accounts between the dates of XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX Experian, XXXX XXXX XXXX gave out my information to them which is a violation of my privacy rights under the Privacy Act of XXXX.
