Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc

Complaint narrative:
I created a paypal account in the summer and went through verification then. I provided my documents, my ID. But I didn't make any transfers at that time. 
This month I withdrew money from fiverr and then a customer sent me XXXX dollars, a couple days later a message came to my gmail address that my account was blocked supposedly due to suspicious activity. 
But I didn't break any rules, paypal just took my account and blocked it, I was very upset when I saw this message. Also tried to write to tech support but they said it's confidential information. Initially I thought maybe I entered my first name and last name wrong ( I'm not exactly sure about that, I'm guessing ). But even so they don't have the power to block the account permanently. 
I hope you can help me with my problem, thank you.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Reporting Agencies have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit while knowing there is a need to insure they exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a RESPECT for the consumers RIGHT TO PRIVACY. 

The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting, and these unfair credit reporting methods undermine my public confidence which is essential to the banking system. 

I never gave my expressed, written consent for these consumer reporting agencies to report my information, which violated 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and this leads to an alleged identity theft, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.

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 account listed without my expressed written consent.
