Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
Capital One is reporting negative transactions and experiences on my consumer report which goes against 15 USC 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) where Congress states that reports containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report should be excluded from a consumer report. 
Capital One has failed to provide the proper way for me to exercise the nondisclosure option given to a consumer by 16 CFR 313.7 and 15 USC 6802. I have provided them with notice that I have opted out of them sharing my nonpublic financial information with 3rd party nonaffilates. They have ignored this notice and are in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Privacy Act of 1974. This is a violation of my rights that are to be enforced by the CFPB according to 15 USC 3805

Product: Debt collection — Medical debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged
Company: Central Portfolio Control Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Central Portfolio Control of XXXX MN sent me a letter supposedly dated on XX/XX/XXXX, but which I only received today ( USPS standard for first class mail delivery is 5 days ), in which the included the following sentence : " As required by law you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit reporting agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. '' This threat is false and or illegal. As of XX/XX/2022, medical debt less than {$500.00} is NOT REPORTABLE by the credit bureaus. Accordingly threatening to damage my credit using a method that is no longer possible is a false, misleading or potentially fraudulent collection tactic. 

The debt in questions, which I do not recognize as legitimate and have been disputing for years, is medical debt ( hosptial charges ) in the amount of approximately {$210.00}. Central has provided no original documentation to backup their claim, which I vigorously dispute.
