When I signed the Privacy Act form, the student loans on my credit report are in violation of the educational Privacy Act. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA ) is a federal law enacted in 1974 that protects the privacy of student education records. FERPA applies to any public or private elementary, secondary, or post-secondary school. 20 USC 1232g ( b ). The student loans should not be reported on my credit reports by XXXX, Experian, or XXXX. They should be removed asap as this has hindered me from getting countless approvals for credit cards. 

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.

I never gave you ( JP Morgan, Chase, auto finance, ) any written instruction to furnish any information on my consumer report which is a violation of 15 USC 1681b. ( JP Morgan, Chase auto finance ) has caused severe stress and anxiety due to the abusive and unfair practices. 
You ( JP Morgan, Chase auto finance. ) should be ashamed of yourself for assuming this role and position to constantly commit fraud and cause hard to consumers! 
These accounts are listed with late or missed payments and that is incorrect. The following accounts were NEVER late and should be listed as PAYS or PAID AS AGREED.

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION (MI)

On Friday XX/XX/XXXX, I received a cheque for {$600.00} in the mail made out to me and drawn on an account with Fifth / Third Bank in XXXX XXXX, MI by the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ( XXXX ) - a State Agency. It was a refund of an overpayment of child support. 

That same day, I presented the cheque for payment at a local branch of Fifth / Third Bank located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX MI XXXX. I had valid identification with me ( a Michigan Drivers License ). 

I was told by the cashier that it was company policy to charge a 2 % fee and that I would need to build a credit profile with their bank as I don't have an account with them. I told her that they have an obligation to cash the cheque without a fee. She refused. I left. 

I believe that this was illegal. In this case, I was fortunate to have an account with a local credit union and could clear the cheque through it. I had hoped to access the funds immediately but was forced to wait. 

This policy clearly is discriminatory and forces the poor who don't have bank accounts ( primarily people of XXXX ) to pay their fees. It is also a disgrace. They are charging their clients for having a checking account but are refusing to honor their cheques unless certain conditions are met.
