I am writing to formally express my frustration and dissatisfaction regarding my inability to access my Equifax online account to retrieve and review my credit report.

I kindly request that you investigate this issue as soon as possible and provide me with a solution that allows me to regain access to my account.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding a pre-approval denial I received from Capital One on XX/XX/year>, under Request ID : XXXX. Capital One stated that my request was denied based on activity on a prior Capital One account that is not consistent with their expectations for account usage or terms of the account agreement.

Key Points of Concern : 1. I have never held a Capital One account.

2. The stated reasoning for the denial appears to be based on incorrect or non-existent account information.

3. I have reviewed my credit report, and there is no record of any accounts with Capital One. I am attaching a copy of my credit report as supporting documentation.

4. Capital One has failed to provide any detailed evidence to support their claim about prior account activity.

Under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ), creditors are prohibited from taking adverse actions based on erroneous or inaccurate information. Furthermore, the ECOA requires creditors to provide clear, specific reasons for adverse actions like denials, which Capital One has failed to do

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Under 15 USC 6801, Congress mandates that financial institutions have an ongoing responsibility to respect the privacy of their customers and protect their personal information. These institutions, which furnish data to credit agencies like XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion, are required to handle this information with care. However, I was never informed of my right to opt out of information sharing as required by 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ). This explicitly states that a financial institution can not disclose nonpublic personal information without giving consumers a clear explanation of how they can exercise their nondisclosure rights.

According to 15 USC 1681 Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), a consumer reporting agency XXXX only share a consumers information if they have written consent. XXXX, XXXX, TransUnion, and the furnishers of information have no such consent from me, and I am formally revoking any consent, whether written, verbal, or implied. 

Under XXXX CFR XXXX, I also have the right to opt out of information sharing at any time. Therefore, I am exercising this right to opt out of all reporting services with XXXX, XXXX, TransUnion, and any associated furnishers of information.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), under 15 USC 1681 Section 602 ( a ), emphasizes that consumer reporting agencies must exercise their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for consumers ' rights to privacy. XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion, as consumer reporting agencies, are not meeting this standard. 

Additionally, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including adverse information on credit reports if it is older than seven years, except for criminal convictions. The adverse information they are reporting about me violates this rule, as it is both unauthorized and outdated.

Moreover, 15 USC 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( A ) specifies that no entity should furnish information to a consumer reporting agency if they know, or should reasonably know, that the information is inaccurate. Under 15 USC 1681e, every consumer reporting agency must maintain reasonable procedures to ensure compliance with these requirements and prevent violations, which XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion have failed to do. 

These violations of federal laws infringe upon my rights as a consumer. I demand immediate corrective action and compliance with the laws cited. I am formally revoking all permissions to share, report, or disclose my information and opting out of all reporting services.
