Sue to the new Law these bureaus are not practicing the law and I want them hel accountable for not proper handing and misusing my credit file. Consumers must be provided with all sources for the information included in their file, including from the original and other sources, so they can correct misinformation. Consumers only need to make a request and provide identification to get their report rather than using specific language or lingo. The report must be presented in a way an average person could understand and include the sources of information. 

The CFPBs advisory opinion has no effect on formal rulemaking but highlights the bureaus top concerns. It comes as the CFPB considers expanding and updating federal credit reporting standards under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

This is a statement from CFPB and I want my credit report fixed properly this time. Fix it and send me a new credit report reflecting the changes.
