Complaint narrative:
I have sent letters with green return receipts to Capital One ( account number ending XXXX ) requesting my disclosures of their institutions privacy policy in regards to my rights that I have NEVER received. I have also called Capital One on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and the representative stated that there were XXXX late payments. XXXX on XXXX, XXXX on XXXX and XXXX on XXXX which were inaccurate and for the current year none. XX/XX/XXXX I spoke to XXXX and a supervisor by the name of XXXX, and on XX/XX/XXXX I spoke to XXXX XXXX. I have sent the letters to Capital One and requested my disclosures and that I did not want my personal information reported on no consumer reports which are third parties and NEVER GOT A RESPONSE. I was not given any forms with an option to opt out of my information being reported which is against the Law. I also disputed with Capital One that the dates were inaccurate on all my consumer reports. I have not got a notice from Capital One stating that these negative remarks were going to be placed on my consumer report which according to congress is unfair and abusive practices. I have also disputed with the consumer reporting agencies ( XXXX, XXXX AND XXXX ) 6 times this year to verify the account putting them on notice that the late payment information should be corrected and when they did not correct it I asked for it to be deleted off my consumer reports for inaccuracy AND that I did not give PERMISSION for them to report my personal information. According to congress I am supposed to receive these disclosures from Capital One giving me the option to opt out from having my personal information, experiences and any transactions being reported to third party agencies which I did not and do not give permission to do so. I am EXTREMELY exhausted disputing with the consumer agencies and Capital one reporting inaccurate, NONPUBLIC PERSONAL INFORMATION, TRANSACTIONS AND EXPERIENCES on my consumer report WITHOUT MY PERMISSION.
