Complaint narrative:
In adherence to the mandates delineated within the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I hereby submit this formal communication to revoke any and all authorizations, whether consciously or unwittingly conveyed, whether manifest in written or unwritten form, verbal or non-verbal. Consequently, I exercise my prerogative to opt out of the disclosure of certain information, as sanctioned by 15 USC 6802. Furthermore, my decision to opt out finds legal foundation in 15 USC 1681b, 17 CFR 248.124 ( b ) ( 5 ), THE PRIVACY ACT OF 1974, and 16CFR313.7f, wherein it unequivocally delineates the continuing entitlement to opt out, underscoring the autonomy vested in consumers to exercise this right at any juncture.

Per the purview of 16CFR313.7g1, the efficacy of my direction to opt out remains steadfast until such time that I formally rescind it in writing, or, upon mutual agreement, electronically.

It is imperative that ALL HARD & SOFT INQUIRIES be expunged forthwith, given their classification as non-open accounts pursuant to the statutory provisions of 15 USC 6801. In tandem with the invocation of the PRIVACY ACT OF 1974 and 15 USC 1681 ( b ), under the rubric of permissible purposes, I also choose to opt out of the reporting of all soft/hard inquiries in consonance with 16 CFR 313.7 ( f ). Moreover, I assert my entitlement to the " right to deletion. '' The characterization of any charge-off as a Certificate of Indebtedness merits meticulous scrutiny, as such instances are deemed tantamount to income and, by extension, are ineligible for reporting. This assertion is bolstered by the elucidations delineated in IRS publication p4681, accessible via the following link : [ Insert Link ].

In concordance with the mandates enshrined in 15 USC 6801, it is incumbent upon financial institutions to embrace a policy framework that upholds the sanctity of customer privacy, ensuring the safeguarding of non-public information in a secure and confidential milieu. Consequently, I demand the expurgation of all transaction history and inquiries from my credit report, for it is a flagrant transgression to disseminate any such information. In lieu thereof, I assert that all account balances be accurately reflected as " PAID IN FULL '' or " PAID AS AGREED, '' whilst simultaneously insisting on the obliteration of all hard/soft inquiries.

The rectification of all duplicate names and misspellings, alongside the removal of non-mailable addresses, stands imperative. It is incumbent upon all entities concerned to ensure that my nomenclature is articulated in its entirety, encompassing solely the first, middle, and last names, devoid of any aberrations.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Unauthorized Credit Reporting and Demand for Resolution Reference to Federal and North Carolina Laws Dear OPPLOANSXXXXXXXX XXXX, I am writing to address the blatant violation regarding the unauthorized reporting of information to my credit report, as confirmed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under Sections 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), 1681c ( a ) ( 2 ), and 1681s-2 ( a ), and North Carolina 's identity theft and fraud laws, specifically under N.C. Gen. Stat. 75-63 and 14-113.20.

It has unequivocally come to my attention that OPPLOANSXXXXXXXX XXXX has engaged in unauthorized reporting to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent. Federal law, as outlined in the FCRA, explicitly mandates that the consent of the consumer is a non-negotiable requirement for such reporting activities under Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ).

In addition to federal law, North Carolina state law, specifically N.C. Gen. Stat. 75-63, emphasizes the necessity of consumer consent for credit reporting. Furthermore, N.C. Gen. Stat. 14-113.20 establishes clear guidelines for the fair reporting and protection of consumer credit information and addresses the severity of unauthorized access and misuse of personal information.

I assert with unwavering certainty that I have not provided consent for OPPLOANSXXXXXXXX XXXX to report any information to my credit report. This undeniable lack of explicit permission constitutes a blatant violation of my rights, resulting in potential damage to my creditworthiness and an unequivocal disregard for federal and state laws. 

I demand, with the utmost certainty, that OPPLOANSXXXX XXXX  immediately cease any further reporting of information to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent, as mandated by Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) of the FCRA and N.C. Gen. Stat. 75-63. Failure to comply within the stipulated 30-day timeframe will be viewed as willful noncompliance, subject to penalties under applicable laws, including identity fraud laws.

I emphasize that obtaining consent is not a discretionary choice but a legal obligation under these specific sections of the FCRA and North Carolina state law. This is not a negotiation ; it is a demand for compliance with both federal and state regulations, protecting consumers like myself from unauthorized and damaging credit reporting.

I anticipate your immediate attention to this matter and expect that OPPLOANSXXXX XXXX  will promptly rectify these egregious violations, respecting my rights under federal and state laws. 

Done in good faith.
