Complaint narrative:
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, specifically 15 USC 1681 section 602 ( a ), it is emphasized that consumer reporting agencies must exercise their significant responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. As a consumer, I am exercising my rights under this provision. 

Equifax, being a consumer reporting agency, is subject to these obligations. I, as the consumer, have the right to ensure that my private information is not shared, as reinforced by 15 USC 6801, which states, 'It is the policy of the Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. ' I have formally requested to opt out of any and all authority granted under 15 U.S. Code 6802 ( a ) ( b ) ( c ), whether conveyed through written, unwritten, verbal, or nonverbal means. This request is effective immediately and is intended to be in effect indefinitely. " Under Title 15 USC 1681, Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) defines a financial institution. In this section, it is explicitly stated that, 'In general, subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. ' It is crucial to note that both the financial institution and the consumer reporting agencies, namely Equifax, do not have my consent to furnish this information. Moreover, they certainly do not possess my written consent as required by the aforementioned provision. 

Furthermore, according to 15 U.S. Code 1681e, 'Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section 1681c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title. It is evident that Equifax is not upholding reasonable procedures as required by this provision.

Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I had opened a TD Bank XXXXhecking & Savings Account about a week ago. I opened it online and had to go into my local branch in person to get my debit card for the account so i can start using it. After about 2-3 days, my account was locked and so was my debit card, and was not able to perform transactions with the card. I had called TDs customer service the same day that it happened and they had told me that they had closed it, saying that it has something to do with my identity/fraud, i never got an exact reason. I went to another branch by my job two days in a row, because i still have money in that account and i was trying to figure out why my account was even closed in the first place. I found out the fraud team for TD looked over my account and decided to close it, with no exact reason as to why. I had just opened the account and barely had it for less than a week and was not given a notice about it at all. I feel like they wrongfully closed my account, and they did not send me any email or call me about it. They have not gotten back to me about the issue and if i can even get my account opened back up again, or if i cant if they are able to send me the funds that i still have in the account that i can not even access.
