Consumer complaint received 2024-05-08 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to address several concerning issues regarding the handling of my personal information as governed by various sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and related statutes.

Firstly, according to 15 USC 1681 section 602 ( a ) of the FCRA, it is imperative that consumer reporting agencies such as XXXX and XXXX conduct their operations with fairness, impartiality, and respect for consumers ' privacy rights. As a consumer, I am entitled to ensure that my private information remains secure, as reinforced by 15 USC 6801, which mandates financial institutions to uphold the privacy and confidentiality of customers ' nonpublic personal information.

Under 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), it is explicitly stated that consumer reporting agencies may only furnish consumer reports under circumstances outlined in written instructions from the consumer. I have not provided consent, neither written nor implied, for XXXX, XXXX, or any furnisher of information to credit agencies to share my personal information.

Furthermore, according to 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ), financial institutions are prohibited from disclosing nonpublic personal information to third parties without informing consumers of their right to opt out of such disclosure. I have not been properly informed of this right by the relevant financial institution.

Additionally, the reporting of adverse items of information, such as the account in question, without my consent violates 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ), which restricts consumer reporting agencies from including such information in consumer reports. Moreover, 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( a ) (
1 ) prohibits the furnishing of inaccurate information to consumer reporting agencies, and XXXX and XXXX are failing to uphold reasonable procedures to prevent violations of the FCRA, as mandated by 15 U.S. Code 1681e.

Finally, under 12 CFR 1016.7, I am exercising my right to opt out of your reporting services effective immediately.

In light of these violations and discrepancies, I expect immediate action to rectify the situation and ensure compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
