Complaint narrative:
XXXX, TRANSUNION, and XXXX have all violated the Privacy Act of 1974, the FCRA, as well as me the consumer I have notified all XXXX corporations of this matter and they have still not yet complied which now puts all corporations under willful non compliance and puts them into civil liability being that I have already filed multiple disputes and complaints with the CfPB. I urge XXXX TRANSUNION, and XXXX to do their utmost due diligence and remedy this situation and stop violating my consumer rights and privacy as well as federal laws and codes. Under the Privacy Act of XXXX Important Definitions ( XXXX ) the term record means any item, collection, or grouping of information about an individual that is maintained by an agency, including, but not limited to, his education, financial transactions, medical history, and criminal or employment history and that contains his name, or the identifying number, symbol, or other identifying particular assigned to the individual, such as a finger or voice print or a photograph ; This includes consumer reports The Privacy Act of XXXX then goes on to state : ( b ) Conditions of Disclosure.No agency shall disclose any record which is contained in a system of records by any means of communication to any person, or to another agency, except pursuant to a written request by, or with the prior written consent of, the individual to whom the record pertains, unless disclosure of the record would be ( XXXX ) to a consumer reporting agency in accordance with section XXXX ( XXXX ) of title XXXX. 
Again they need prior written instruction of the individual to whom it relates. Which EXERIAN, TRANSUNION, nor XXXX never had my consent and surely not my written consent. 

Any and all consent to XXXX, TRANSUNION, and XXXX whether it be verbal, non-verbal, written, implied or otherwise is revoked. 

Section XXXX ( XXXX ) of title XXXX States ( XXXX ) When trying to collect a claim of the Government under a law except the Internal Revenue Code of XXXX ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX et seq. ), the head of an XXXX, judicial, or legislative agency shall disclose to a consumer reporting agency information from a system of records that a person is responsible for a claim if ( XXXX ) the head of the agency has established procedures to ( XXXX ) get satisfactory assurances from each consumer reporting agency that the agency is complying with all laws of the United States related to providing consumer credit information ; and Either way XXXX, TRANSUNION, and XXXX have violated not only the Fair Credit Reporting Act but also the Privacy Act of XXXX There are also OPT OUT LAWS in place to further protect the privacy of consumers. 
PART XXXX - PRIVACY OF CONSUMER FINANCIAL INFORMATION ( REGULATION P ) 12 CFR 1016.1 Purpose and scope. 
( a ) Purpose. This part governs the treatment of nonpublic personal information about consumers by the financial institutions listed in paragraph ( b ) of this section. This part : ( XXXX ) Requires a financial institution to provide notice to customers about its privacy policies and practices ; ( XXXX ) Describes the conditions under which a financial institution may disclose nonpublic personal information about consumers to nonaffiliated third parties ; and ( XXXX ) Provides a method for consumers to prevent a financial institution from disclosing that information to most nonaffiliated third parties by opting out of that disclosure, subject to the exceptions in XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. 
Every company owes the consumers a privacy notice before they furnish any information to our consumer report. 
The XXXX says under 12 CFR 1016.4 Initial privacy notice to consumers required. 
( a ) Initial notice requirement. You must provide a clear and conspicuous notice that accurately reflects your privacy policies and practices to : ( XXXX ) Customer. An individual who becomes your customer, not later than when you establish a customer relationship, except as provided in paragraph ( XXXX ) of this section; and ( XXXX ) Consumer. A consumer, before you disclose any nonpublic personal information about the consumer to any nonaffiliated third party, 12 CFR 1016.7 Form of opt out notice to consumers ; opt out methods. Section ( a ) ( XXXX ) Form of opt out notice. If you are required to provide an opt out notice under XXXX ( a ), you must provide a clear and conspicuous notice to each of your consumers that accurately explains the right to opt out under that section. The notice must state : ( i ) That you disclose or reserve the right to disclose nonpublic personal information about your consumer to a nonaffiliated third party ; ( ii ) That the consumer has the right to opt out of that disclosure; and ( iii ) A reasonable means by which the consumer may exercise the opt out right.

15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) states that " A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. XXXX Never informed me of my right to exercise my nondisclosure option. As you can now understand the reporting of this account to my consumer report is not only a violation of FCRA and privacy act of XXXX but the LAW as well laws that were put in place to protect any information about a consumer that the consumer wishes to keep private and away from public record. XXXX, TRANSUNION, and XXXX have violated these Acts, Laws and Codes that were stated in this complaint and have been repeatedly put on notice about this matter. If XXXX, TRANSUNION, and XXXX continue to refuse to delete this account from my consumer report they will now be under civil liability due to the fact I have already informed all XXXX corporations of these matters and they have not yet complied with LAWS CODES and Acts they agreed to adhere in order to conduct business. 
I the consumer have the right to opt out of anything on my report at any time and the companies must comply as soon as reasonably practicable after I notify them. They have given me unreasonable means to opt out so I have had to write my own CFPB complaint directing them to stop reporting this account related to XXXX in accordance with the laws, acts, and codes listed above. Lastly XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX states '' Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section XXXX of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section XXXX of this title. XXXX and TRANSUNION, are not maintaining reasonable procedures. Also XXXX XXXX XXXX states that " A consumer XXXX exercise the right to opt out at any time. '' I am opting out of XXXX reporting services.
