State: GA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX Department, I am writing to formally notify you that my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) have been violated in relation to the reporting and handling of my account.

Violation of Privacy ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 602 ) : The FCRA, specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 602, establishes that consumers have a right to privacy regarding their personal financial information. It is my belief that this right has been infringed upon, as the reporting of my account details has not been handled in a manner consistent with the privacy protections provided under the law. 

Improper Furnishing of Information ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) ) : Under 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), a consumer reporting agency can not furnish any account information without the consumers explicit written instructions. I did not authorize the sharing or reporting of this account, and I request that any unauthorized furnishing of my account information be addressed immediately.

Violation of Payment Handling ( 15 U.S.C. 1666b ) : According to 15 U.S.C. 1666b, a creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose if the payment was made in a timely manner. I believe that my account has been incorrectly reported as having a late payment, despite compliance with the required payment terms. I request that you correct this reporting error as it violates federal law and unfairly impacts my credit report. 

XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX I ask that you take immediate action to address these violations by : Removing any inaccurate late payment information from my credit report. 
Ceasing the unauthorized furnishing of my account information. 
Providing written confirmation of the actions taken to correct these violations. 
Failure to address these issues promptly may result in further action, including filing formal complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and other regulatory bodies. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.
