ABC Financial  charge a {$20.00} " Insufficient Funds Fee ''. I called them the same day to offer an alternate form of payment since the credit card on file was reported lost. They refused to run another card on the due date and proceeded to charge the fee anyway. This company rips people off and hides behind fine print in a gym contract. I have asked to sign a new contract that eliminates the fee and they have refused. I do not believe what they are doing is ethical or legal.

Hello, My credit reports states there are 2 missed payments on this account. 

I am directing you to remove ALL late payments on this account and update my credit report to paid as agreed pursuant to Federal Law under the Heroes Act.

The Heroes Act states ; Negative consumer credit reporting during the COVID-19 pandemic is SUSPENDED. PLUS an additional 120 days.

The Covid 19 pandemic was declared over on XX/XX/2023. 
120 days from XX/XX/2023, is XX/XX/2023. 

The Heroes Act also declares that adverse information is prevented from being added to consumer credit reports TO PREVENT ruining credit scores. These two late payments injured my report and must be removed.

Also, Credit score furnishers are prohibited from creating and/or implementing new credit scoring models that would lower existing consumer credit scores during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Additionally, this account is paid up to date. 

Thank you. 

Attached you will find the following ; 1. HEROES ACT 2. Image from CDC.gov declaring XX/XX/2023 as end of Covid 19 Pandemic 3. Image proving XX/XX/2023 as 120 days from XX/XX/2023.

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681, Section 602a ), it is imperative to ensure that consumer reporting agencies conduct their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a regard for the consumer 's right to privacy. XXXX and Experian, being consumer reporting agencies, interact with me as the consumer. I possess the right to safeguard my private information, as reinforced by 15 USC 6801, which dictates that financial institutions have an ongoing obligation to respect customer privacy and safeguard nonpublic personal information. XXXX XXXX XXXX falls under the definition of a financial institution in compliance with this policy. Under 15 USC 1681, Section 604a, Subsection 2, it is stated that a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only upon the written instructions of the relevant consumer. Both XXXX XXXX XXXX and the consumer reporting agencies, XXXX and Experian, do not possess my consent to disclose this information, nor do they possess my written consent. I hereby revoke any and all forms of consent, whether verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or otherwise. 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) specifies that a financial institution can not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party without informing the consumer of their right to exercise a nondisclosure option. XXXX XXXX XXXX  never informed me of my right to exercise this option. Furthermore, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) explicitly prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including certain adverse information in consumer reports without authorization. This account is being reported as adverse without my permission, which is in violation of the law. Additionally, 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A prohibits the furnishing of inaccurate information to consumer reporting agencies, and 15 U.S. Code 1681e requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain reasonable procedures to avoid violations of Section 1681c and restrict the furnishing of consumer reports to specified purposes. XXXX and Experian appear to be failing to maintain reasonable procedures. Moreover, 12 CFR 1016.7 affirms my right to opt out of reporting services at any time. Therefore, I am exercising my right to opt out of your reporting services
