Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Wells Fargo is reporting an account as a charge off on my credit report. They have not provided a 1099 to support their claim. If they have already received funds for this account via insurance, then this is subrogation. 

Further, I never received all disclosures or was informed clearly and conspicuously of my rights pursuant to 15 usc 6802 It was never explained to me that reporting this account to my credit was consensual. I was never told that Wells Fargo would traffic, transfer or sell my information to breach-prone companies where my information would be compromised which violates The Protection of Non-public Information laws.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is all about making sure credit reporting is fair and accurate. When there are violations under the FCRA, it messes up the banking system, which relies on accurate credit reports. Unfair credit reporting can also shake people 's trust in the system. So, if any of my accounts get reported without my permission, that's basically identity theft, and it's a breach of my privacy since I should have control over what's listed. Luckily, there are laws like 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 that protect me. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for accounts listed without my expressed written consent. These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.

I still never gave them no written content to furnish these fraudulent inquiries/inaccurate accounts/late payments.

The law states that any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device are not supposed to be included in a consumer report, and this reported information was an EXPERIENCE of mine. 

Also, this company violated 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) ( b ) which states that a consumer report does not include any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device. 

An exclusion means that is it not supposed to be on there. Additionally, a credit card is defined in the Truth and Lending Act q5 uSc 1602 ( l ) - the term credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining money, property, labor, or services on credit. Any card is referring to the fact that my credit card or social security number in this context was used when I did business, because my social security number was used to extend credit to myself in this transaction.
