Formal Complaint Regarding Violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding the inclusion of two erroneous accounts on my credit report, which directly contravenes my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality as outlined in 15 U.S.C. 1681. 

The following accounts have been inaccurately listed on my credit report : Account Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX These entries directly violate the FCRA in several key aspects : 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A : This section explicitly guarantees my right to privacy, which has been infringed upon by the inclusion of unauthorized accounts on my credit report. 

15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A, Section 2 : This provision stipulates that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instruction. I have neither provided consent nor authorized the inclusion of these accounts on my credit report. 

15 U.S.C. 1681c : This section prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including any adverse information, except for certain exceptions such as records of convictions of crimes which antedate the report by more than seven years. The inclusion of the aforementioned accounts is in direct violation of this provision. 

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 : This section mandates that information furnished to consumer reporting agencies must be accurate, and any entity reporting information must not do so if they know or have reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. The inclusion of these erroneous accounts demonstrates a failure to comply with this requirement. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Dear [ Recipient ], I am writing to address several concerning issues regarding the handling of my personal information as governed by various sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and related statutes.

Firstly, according to 15 USC 1681 section 602 ( a ) of the FCRA, it is imperative that consumer reporting agencies such as XXXX and Experian conduct their operations with fairness, impartiality, and respect for consumers ' privacy rights. As a consumer, I am entitled to ensure that my private information remains secure, as reinforced by 15 USC 6801, which mandates financial institutions to uphold the privacy and confidentiality of customers ' nonpublic personal information.

Under 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), it is explicitly stated that consumer reporting agencies may only furnish consumer reports under circumstances outlined in written instructions from the consumer. I have not provided consent, neither written nor implied, for Experian, or any furnisher of information to credit agencies to share my personal information.

Furthermore, according to 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ), financial institutions are prohibited from disclosing nonpublic personal information to third parties without informing consumers of their right to opt out of such disclosure. I have not been properly informed of this right by the relevant financial institution.

Additionally, the reporting of adverse items of information, such as the account in question, without my consent violates 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ), which restricts consumer reporting agencies from including such information in consumer reports.

Moreover, 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( a ) ( 1 ) prohibits the furnishing of inaccurate information to consumer reporting agencies, and XXXX and Experian are failing to uphold reasonable procedures to prevent violations of the FCRA, as mandated by 15 U.S. Code 1681e.

Finally, under 12 CFR 1016.7, I am exercising my right to opt out of your reporting services effective immediately.

In light of these violations and discrepancies, I expect immediate action to rectify the situation and ensure compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
