Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CO)

**Consumer Financial Protection Bureau** XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, IA XXXX **Subject : Opting Out of Credit Reporting and Violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Privacy Act of 1974** **Account : XXXX XXXX To whom it may concern, I am writing to formally opt out of any credit reporting on my consumer credit reports and to address violations of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 USC 1681, and the Privacy Act of 1974 ( 5 USC 552a ).

As a federally protected consumer, I assert my right to privacy as outlined in the FCRA, 15 USC 1681a, and invoke my right to opt out of any reporting on my credit reports. Reporting my transaction history without my explicit consent is illegal and violates my rights under the FCRA.

According to 15 USC 1681b, I have never given written authorization to report personal information on my credit reports. Furthermore, P.L. 90-321 ( 82 Stat. 146 ) specifies that any agency can only access my report in response to a request by the head of a state or local child support enforcement agency.

In addition, 15 USC 1681c states that no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing adverse items of information other than records of convictions of crimes older than seven years. Any derogatory mark on my report is a violation of this section.

According to 15 USC 1681n, civil liability for willful noncompliance allows for damages of not less than {$100.00} and not more than {$1000.00} per violation. I can prove willful violations and am entitled to compensation.

The Privacy Act of 1974 ( 5 USC 552a ), subsection ( b ), states that no agency shall disclose any record without prior written consent. I have never authorized such disclosures.

Per 12 CFR 1016.1 ( Regulation P ), I have the right to opt out of disclosures to nonaffiliated third parties. Companies must provide a privacy notice and comply with opt-out requests promptly, as per 12 CFR 1016.4 and 1016.7. I have not been given the opportunity to opt out of any reporting. Additionally, 15 USC 6802 requires opt-out notices for any information added to my consumer reports.

Given these violations, I request the removal and deletion of the XXXX XXXX account reporting on my credit reports. This is an opt-out notice and removal request, not a validation or verification of debt. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

To Whom It May Concern : I recently received a copy of my 3 Bureau credit report XX/XX/XXXX. After Reviewing my reports. I noticed there was an account that had a 30 DAY late payment. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX As a consumer I have rights that should be abided by. To my knowledge I am subject to an investigation about this instance on my report. I understand, By Law you are required to report accurate and verifiable information but you are not respecting my consumer rights. I am requesting there be an investigation.

BELOW ARE THE LAWS THAT ARE BEING VIOLATED : Under the FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) ( a ) ( i ) Exclusions from a consumer credit report clearly states : ( 2 ) EXCLUSIONS.Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include ( A ) Subject to section 1681s-3 of this title, any ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report ; I understand that these are supposed to be reported but if things such as late payments are being reported it goes against the definition of a consumer report ( as I state above ) which makes it inaccurate and unreliable. BY law its not considered a consumer report because it isn't Fair and accurate information.

Late payments are considered a transaction, the law clearly states Reports containing information solely as to transactions and experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. 30 Day Late Payments are considered Transactions. Therefore, this 30 day late payment should be investigated and Reversed to read ok.

Under 15 USC 1681b - permissible purpose of consumer reports, THE LAW CLEARLY STATES : ( b ) IN GENERAL Subject to subsection ( c ) any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates.

I did not grant permission for anyone to furnish such things on my report. Unless it is written consent by the consumer ( me ) these types of report information should not be reported. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Failure to comply satisfactorily with the reversal of the above referenced account, and send out a free copy of my report after the changes have been made will result in legal actions being taken against your company, for which I will also be seeking {$1000.00} per violation for : 1. Defamation of Character ( per se ) 2. Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud 3. Fair Debt Collections Practices Act 15 USC 1692g violations 4. Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 violations for willful noncompliance - 616. Civil liability for willful noncompliance [ 15 U.S.C. 1681n ] I am prepared to take any necessary legal actions if demands are not met. Reverse the late payments for XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX

I want to emphasize that I did not provide written authorization for the inclusion of these specific transactions in my consumer report. Therefore, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report. It is crucial to clarify that this request is not due to any oversight or error on my part.
