Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (TX)

I received a call from a third party collector to collect a balance Owed to Capital One for an secured credit card. I explained that I was not comfortable with providing my personal information to a third party collection agency and was demanding to be transferred to the bank. I spoke with someone at the bank, explained how can I owe money on a card that I deposited money on. Upon my research to the company prospectus, I read that XXXX scores are used but not entirely accurate due to it being a third party independent company ; in which this convey Identity Theft. I did/do not consent to third party agencies and affiliates to have my person information. I also explained that in the prospectus that such score can not determine the amount a Person should receive as credit. No one could resolve my issues or reopen my account with the new balance requested. 
There seems to be an error as that would be in contradiction of 12 CFR 1002.2 ( l ), which defines a creditor as... the term does not include a person whose only participation in a credit transaction involves honoring a credit card. 12 CFR 1002.2 ( k ) defines a credit card as meaning any card, plate, coupon book, or other single credit device that may be used from time to time to obtain money, property, or services on credit. The credit card that was to be honored in said transaction is the Social Security Card, specifically the account numbers placed on the electronic credit application. If there is any presumption that the said Social Security Card/Account is not used to obtain money, property, or services on credit see 26 CFR 301.7701-11 as security is defined within the meaning of this regulation in reference to the social security number as ... or warrant or right to subscribe to or purchase, any of the foregoing ; negotiable instrument ; or money. - ( Source : 26 CFR 301.6323 ( h ) -1 ).
