I just received a copy of my credit report and to my surprise, I noticed that my right to privacy has been violated. By no means have I given you any permission to report non-public personal information without written consent. Nor have I provided any financial institution, or third party ( collection agencies ) authority to obtain any information. 
In regards to 15 U.S. Code 6802 Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information ( c ) Limits on reuse of information Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, a nonaffiliated third party that receives from a financial institution nonpublic personal information under this section shall not, directly or through an affiliate of such receiving the third party, disclose such information to any other person that is a nonaffiliated third party of both the financial institution and such receiving the third party, unless such disclosure would be lawful if made directly to such other person by the financial institution.

I do not consent to any third party obtaining non-personal information without my knowledge or notice. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) was enacted to protect the confidential information on consumers ' credit reports from misuse, fraud, and theft. It gives consumers the right to ensure that the information on their credit reports is not only correct but private.

Also in accordance with 15 U.S. Code 1681a Definitions ; rules of construction, ( 2 ) ( C ) any report in which a person who has been requested by a third party to make a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly to a consumer conveys his or her decision with respect to such request, if the third party advises the consumer of the name and address of the person to whom the request was made, and such person makes the disclosures to the consumer required under section 1681m of this title.

Due to the breach of my privacy, I am requesting the following items be Deleted Immediately.

Equifax has misreported my credit report. After I submitted a dispute my credit report dropped. I submitted another dispute and my credit report dropped again. Also, I was automatically signed up for a service I did not request call Equifax Core Credit. This service might be the issue as well. As of XX/XX/2023 my credit score has dropped from a XXXX to a XXXX just like that. In my Equifax account it stated my credit score dropped XXXX points, but in actuality it dropped XXXX points. I called Equifax and they said a bank reported a overdraft. I explained to Equifax that I never received any information from that bank ( which I never really use about an over draft ). Me purchasing gas 5 months ago should not cause my credit score to drop dramatically. I explained that Equifax math is off because XXXX, therefore my credit score drop is by 68 points. I paid the bank it's XXXX and today I look at my credit score it dropped from XXXX to XXXX after I placed another dispute and voiced my complaint. This drop is another XXXX points. I need help fixing this issue. Equifax is stating it is not them and I believe it is. This situation is negatively affecting things I am trying to do. Equifax admitted in XXXX of 2023 to errors in their credit reporting and this is when my issue started. I want my credit score put back to a XXXX and my positive credit added to that XXXX, which will raise my credit score to where it should be. I worked hard on achieving a high credit score and want my credit score restored to it's accuracy XXXX points from XX/XX/2023.

This is in regards to a Late Payment Dispute for XXXX XXXX XXXX Credit Card. My credit report shows a 30 day past due payment on XX/XX/XXXX for this account.
