( b ) Reasonable procedures It is the purpose of this subchapter to require that consumer reporting agencies adopt reasonable procedures for meeting the needs of commerce for consumer credit, personnel, insurance, and other information in a manner which is fair and equitable to the consumer, with regard to the confidentiality, accuracy, relevancy, and proper utilization of such information in accordance with the requirements of this subchapter. This account being reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and TRANSUNION is reporting negatively as a collections on my consumer report. The reporting of this account damaged my credit worthiness to other individuals, therefore I am unable to obtain general household goods this in turn damages my general mode of living. The reporting of this account is not equitable and fair to me the consumer. 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 TRANSUNION 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. According to 12 CFR 1016.1 Purpose and scope. 
( a ) Purpose. This part governs the treatment of nonpublic personal information about consumers by the financial institutions listed in paragraph ( b ) of this section. This part : ( 1 ) Requires a financial institution to provide notice to customers about its privacy policies and practices ; ( 2 ) Describes the conditions under which a financial institution may disclose nonpublic personal information about consumers to nonaffiliated third parties ; and ( 3 ) Provides a method for consumers to prevent a financial institution from disclosing that information to most nonaffiliated third parties by opting out of that disclosure, subject to the exceptions in 1016.13, 1016.14, and 1016.15.

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. '' ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) Never informed me of my right to exercise my nondisclosure option. XXXX XXXX XXXX is attempting to collect on a past rental loan from me. Only banks can extend credit or give out loans. Therefore XXXX XXXX XXXX is a financial institution and the laws stated in this CFPB complaint XXXX XXXX XXXX is subject to and can be charged for violation of the USC and FCRA.
