I had money transferred to my Paypal account, after which they locked/limited me and asked me to prove my identity and address. I uploaded those files on the link that I got, after which I got an email saying my proof of ID had to be reuploaded. Went back to the link and there was no option to reupload it. I emailed them every single day since, but only got an automated message back. I called them but gave up after waiting for an hour, tweeted them and got no reply there either. They are basically holding my money XXXX and I need it to pay my bills.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (IL)

Experian, XXXX, and XXXX all violated my consumer rights to privacy under The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA ) ( 20 U.S.C. 1232g ; 34 CFR Part 99 ), which is a Federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. The law applies to all schools that receive funds under an applicable program of the XXXX Department of Education. 

These rights were also violated under 15 U.S. Code 6802 - Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information. 
( a ) Notice requirements Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, a financial institution may not, directly or through any affiliate, disclose to a nonaffiliated third party any nonpublic personal information, unless such financial institution provides or has provided to the consumer a notice that complies with section 6803 of this title. 
( b ) Opt out. 
( 1 ) In general A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless ( A ) such financial institution clearly and conspicuously discloses to the consumer, in writing or in electronic form or other form permitted by the regulations prescribed under section 6804 of this title, that such information may be disclosed to such third party ; ( B ) the consumer is given the opportunity, before the time that such information is initially disclosed, to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party ; and ( C ) the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. 

At no point have I been given an such correspondence as to the methods listed in 15 U.S. Code 6802. Only after extensive research, I happened across the information in these codes, as well as The Privacy Act of 1974, a United States federal law, which establishes a Code of Fair Information Practice that governs the collection, maintenance, use, and dissemination of personally identifiable information about individuals that is maintained in systems of records by federal agencies. 


XXXX XXXX XXXX - balances, and payment history displayed XX/XX/XXXX - Present In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, as a federally protected consumer, I am now exercising my right to opt out of any and all authorization I the consumer may have given you, written, unwritten, verbal, nonverbal, and otherwise per 15USC 6802.

I paid off my last {$100.00} balance on or around the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. On or about the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX I am notified that a collection account for this provider was added to my credit report.

The only thing that was done was update the status to paid but the information was incorrect from the beginning so how was XXXX allowed to put this on my credit report in the first place? It never should have been sent to collections if I was making good faith payments and it certainly shouldnt have been placed on my report AFTER the debt was paid in full!
