Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: RI

Complaint narrative:
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681, Section 602a ), it is imperative to ensure that consumer reporting agencies conduct their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a regard for the consumer 's right to privacy. Equifax and XXXX, being consumer reporting agencies, interact with me as the consumer. I possess the right to safeguard my private information, as reinforced by 15 USC 6801, which dictates that financial institutions have an ongoing obligation to respect customer privacy and safeguard nonpublic personal information. XXXX XXXX falls under the definition of a financial institution in compliance with this policy. Under 15 USC 1681, Section 604a, Subsection 2, it is stated that a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only upon the written instructions of the relevant consumer. Both XXXX XXXX and the consumer reporting agencies, Equifax and XXXX, do not possess my consent to disclose this information, nor do they possess my written consent. I hereby revoke any and all forms of consent, whether verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or otherwise. 
15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) specifies that a financial institution can not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party without informing the consumer of their right to exercise a nondisclosure option. XXXX XXXX never informed me of my right to exercise this option. 
Furthermore, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) explicitly prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including certain adverse information in consumer reports without authorization. This account is being reported as adverse without my permission, which is in violation of the law. Additionally, 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A prohibits the furnishing of inaccurate information to consumer reporting agencies, and 15 U.S. Code 1681e requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain reasonable procedures to avoid violations of Section 1681c and restrict the furnishing of consumer reports to specified purposes. Equifax and XXXX appear to be failing to maintain reasonable procedures. 
Moreover, 12 CFR 1016.7 affirms my right to opt out of reporting services at any time. Therefore, I am exercising my right to opt out of your reporting services Immediate deletion of account and {$1000.00} per violation I am entitled to a $ 1,000per violation plus any other damages i have sustained as a result of your failure to follow the law. I have file more than 1 complaint, willful noncompliance can easily be proven as you had a full understanding of the violations after i complained the 1st time 15 U.S. Code 1681o - Civil liability for negligent noncompliance
