Complaint narrative:
USC 6801, I, as the consumer, retain the right to ensure that my private information is not disseminated without explicit consent. XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ; XXXX, XXXX, Transunion ; XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion, recognized as a financial institution under the same title, is subject to 15 USC 1681 section 604a section 2, which explicitly states, " 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. '' In this specific case, neither XXXX ; XXXX  ; XXXX nor TransUnion, XXXX and XXXX, consumer reporting agencies, possess my written consent to furnish this information, rendering their actions unlawful. I hereby unequivocally revoke any and all consent previously granted to TransUnion, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ; XXXX  ; or XXXX, whether such consent was verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or otherwise. Additionally, it is noteworthy that XXXX ; XXXX  ; XXXX, TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX neglected to apprise me of my right to exercise the nondisclosure option, exacerbating their non-compliance with relevant laws. Furthermore, the inclusion of this adverse item in my credit report by Transunion ; XXXX ; and XXXX runs afoul of 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ), which explicitly states, " Except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than XXXX ( XXXX ) years '', which the alleged information is not. TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX, as consumer reporting agencies, are duty-bound to uphold reasonable procedures designed to avoid such violations, as mandated by the requirements delineated in 15 USC 1681b . Additionally, 12 CFR 1016.7 further underscores a consumer 's right to opt out at any time from reporting services. Their failure to adhere to these standards indicates a breach of their obligations. 

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC1681 section 602 a states " There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. '' XXXX and XXXX are consumer reporting agencies and I am the Consumer. I have the right to make sure my private information isn't shared which is backed 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. '' ( Furnisher of information to credit agencies ) is a financial institution by definition under that title. 15 USC1681 section 604 a section 2 states 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. '' ( Furnisher of information to credit agencies ) the financial institution and the Consumer reporting agencies XXXX and XXXX do not have my consent to furnish this information and they surely do not have my written consent. Any and all consent to XXXX, XXXX, ( Furnisher of information to credit agencies ) whether it be verbal, non-verbal, written, implied or otherwise is revoked. 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) states that " 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. '' ( Furnisher of information to credit agencies ) Never informed me of my right to exercise my nondisclosure option. Not only that 15USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) states '' Except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than XXXX years. '' This account is an adverse item they are reporting again without my permission which is against the law. 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A states " A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 15 U.S. Code 1681e states '' 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. XXXX  and XXXX  are not maintaining reasonable procedures. Also 12 CFR 1016.7 states that " A consumer may exercise the right to opt out at any time. '' I am opting out of your reporting services. 

I'd like to ask you to rectify this erroneous and incorrect report as soon as possible. Failure to do so may lead to legal recourse due to a failure to comply with the necessary legal obligations in those areas. In order to avoid any future problems, it is important to understand the precise nature of documentation which must be addressed. In the future, a lack of accurate and complete information could lead to unnecessary difficulties. In order to mitigate any potential adverse effects, it is therefore essential that we address this issue with a sense of urgency.
