Complaint narrative:
Having meticulously reviewed the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681, 602 ), I am both enlightened and resolute in my understanding of its mandate : " There is a need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for the consumers right to privacy. '' XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, being consumer reporting agencies, are bound by this statutory duty, and I, as the Sovereign Consumer, command that my private information be protected, as upheld by XXXX5 USC 6801, which declares, " It is the policy of 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. '' The financial institutions that furnish information to these credit reporting agencies fall under this obligation by definition. Furthermore, 15 USC 1681 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) explicitly states : " No consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report except in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. '' I hereby affirm that no such written instructions have been provided by me to XXXX, XXXX, or any furnisher of information, and any alleged consent, whether verbal, non-verbal, implied, or otherwise, is unequivocally revoked. 

Additionally, pursuant to 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ), " A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. '' I have never been informed of this right by the furnishers of information. This failure constitutes a blatant violation of federal law.

Moreover, 15 USC 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) mandates that no consumer reporting agency may include in its reports adverse information predating seven years, except for criminal convictions. Yet, these agencies continue to unlawfully report adverse items without my consent, flouting legal boundaries.

The furnishers of this information are further restrained by 15 USC 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( A ), which forbids the transmission of any information that is inaccurate or that they have reason to believe is inaccurate. Similarly, 15 USC 1681e commands all consumer reporting agencies to maintain procedures that prevent such violations. XXXX and XXXX have failed in this regard, disregarding the statutes that bind them.

Finally, under 12 CFR 1016.7, I exercise my unalienable right to opt out of these reporting services at my discretion and at any time. As of this declaration, I am opting out.

Let this serve as an authoritative decree : my rights as the Sovereign Consumer shall not be infringed. All parties are hereby noticed of their violations and compelled to cease and desist from further unauthorized reporting or sharing of my information. 

Signed, By My Own Hand, XXXX XXXX House of XXXX XXXX
