Complaint narrative:
Subject : Violation of Opt-Out Rights under 15 USC 6802 and Request for Account Deletion Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau , I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a matter regarding my account withXX/XX/XXXXpecifically concerning their violation of my rights under 15 USC 6802 and the improper handling of the account post-charge off. I formally requested to opt out of the sharing of my personal information with affiliates and non-affiliates ofXX/XX/XXXX, in accordance with 15 USC 6802 ( e ). Despite this opt-out request, XXXX XXXX response was they have a right to share my information which is a clear violation of my statutory rights per 15 U.S. Code 6802 - Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information ( a ) Notice requirements Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, a financial institution may not, directly or through any affiliate, disclose to a nonaffiliated third party any nonpublic personal information, unless such financial institution provides or has provided to the consumer a notice that complies with section 6803 of this title.

As I've Stated. I Demanded To All These Fake Credit Agencies That ONE Name. And One Address Be Used On My Report. 

( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX!!! ) XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX XXXX XXXX, Wi. XXXX. 

So Why When I Went To Obtain A Free Copy Of My Credit Report, Yesterday ; They Had EVERY ADDRESS I'VE EVER HAD GOING BACK TO 2002!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

And Your Response : 'You Should Hear Back Within 60 Days ... '' They DON'T HAVE 60 DAYS!!! THEY HAVE
30!!!!!! Furthermore, They've Already Used Over A Year, Ruining My Score And Wasting My Time While You Did Nothing.

As Per The Fair Credit Reporting Act, Each And Every Address Which Is Not My Current Address And All Connected Accounts Should Be Immediately Deleted. From My Credit Report. 

I've Also Asked That Every Single Debt, Or Account Older Than 7 Years Be Removed From My Credit Report As Well. I'm A CEO With 5 Companies In Total.

I Don't Have Time For This Childishness. Anything Negative On My Credit Report In The First Place, Was Likely A Product Which I Returned, Such As A Cellphone For Instance Or Another Service, Which Was Not As Advertised. I Handle My Business. But If You Think You're Going To Cheat Me, Or Give Me Substandard Service. I'll Return Your Product. Nothing Wrong With That.

Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan — Personal line of credit
Issue: Charged fees or interest you didn't expect — 
Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I took out a personal loan through US Bank at an annual 10.99 % interest rate over 36 months. US Banks sent over a contract which I signed to complete the loan approval process. What US Bank failed to mention and what is not listed in the contract is the daily bank fee which is determined based on the size of the loan and annual % rate. The first month the daily rate was {$2.00} and now it's {$2.00} this month. This additional bank fee was never stipulated in the contract. I contacted US Bank to communicate the mistake and was rerouted three times before being connected to the loan department where I was connected to a supervisor. The first supervisor was talking over me and raising her voice to the point where I had to ask her to lower her voice. She proceeded to talk over me at which I asked to be connected to another supervisor as she was still rude. I was transferred to another supervisor who was explaining the interest rates again which I understood, however, nowhere in the contract does it stipulate any reasoning or breakdowns of daily interest charges that US Bank will take on top of the interest they're already earning if it takes me the full 36 months to pay off the loan. I explained that knowing how loans work based on hearsay is completely different than indicating that point by point in a legal document. The supervisor couldn't find anything in the contract that explains the daily interest and attempted to depute the request from their system. The supervisor said she would send the amortization schedule so I'm waiting on that. The dispute here is regarding the misleading language in the contract along with the refusal to explain or even indicate a daily interest charge.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "
