By denying my opt out request Acima Leasing is in direct violation of 12 CFR 1016.15 ( b ) ( 2 ) Examples of consent and revocation of consent. Which states, A consumer may revoke consent by subsequently exercising the right to opt out of future disclosures of nonpublic personal information as permitted under 12 CFR 1016.7 ( h ).

Another CFR Acima Leasing are in violation of is 12CFR 1016.7 ( g ) Time to comply with opt out.
