The FCRA, as you are aware, is designed to protect the rights and privacy of consumers like myself. One of the fundamental provisions, outlined in 15 USC 1681 Section 602, guarantees my right to privacy. In accordance with this provision, I firmly believe that my financial information should be treated with the utmost confidentiality and accuracy.

Moreover, I draw your attention to 15 USC 1681 Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), which emphasizes that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish information related to any account without obtaining my written instructions. It is imperative that the accuracy and integrity of the information shared with creditors and lenders are maintained at all times, aligning with the principles of this provision.

Additionally, I would like to highlight the significance of 15 USC 1666b, which underscores that a creditor is not authorized to classify a payment on a credit card account, governed by an open end consumer credit plan, as late for any purpose without proper cause. This provision seeks to ensure fairness and transparency in the treatment of credit card payments, a vital aspect of maintaining an accurate credit history.

They have had plenty of time to actually verify and correct any errors but still have not and just keep sending back that the account is verified wasting my time and doing personal harm to me.

I have the right to make sure my private information isn't shared which is backed by 15 USC 6801 which states 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 XXXX XXXX is a financial institution by definition under that title. 15 USC 1681 section 604 a section 2 states 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, 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 XXXX, XXXX, Experian or 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. Not only that 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) states '' 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, 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.
