Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: OR

Complaint narrative:
Please register my complaint regarding predatory practices of Wells Fargo, specifically complete, blatant disregard of my right to privacy. 

To install a new heat pump in my house, I elected to finance it through Wells Fargo, since that was the preferred financier of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Upon submitting my paperwork to have the loan and having it approved, I was notified that it is not actually a loan, but a credit card. Surprise! Not only it is a credit card with a very high interest rate, but in order for me to pay the said credit card, I have to enroll in WellsFargo 's online banking. To sign up for online banking, I must consent to the following : " By selecting Continue, you agree that Wells Fargo Bank , N.A . may contact you at the phone number listed above even if we use an autodialer or artificial or prerecorded voice message to call or text you for servicing purposes. If the phone number you provide is registered to a mobile phone, your mobile carrier 's charges may apply.

You represent that you are the owner of the mobile phone number or have the delegated legal authority to act on behalf of the mobile subscriber to provide this consent.

You understand and agree that Wells Fargo may collect, use and retain personal or other information about you or your device according to pursuant to Wells Fargo 's policies or as required by applicable law. 
You authorize your wireless operator to disclose your mobile number, name, address, email, network status, customer type, customer role, billing type, mobile device identifiers ( XXXX and XXXX ) and other subscriber and device details, if available, to Wells Fargo and service providers for the duration of the business relationship, solely for identity verification and fraud avoidance. '' There is no option to opt-out. 

This behavior is predatory. As a consumer I have the right to opt-out of this data harvesting and robo-calls, however Wells Fargo does not give me this option when trying to enroll and pay the balance on my card. 

Forced consent to robo-calls and blatant data syphoning should be prohibited. Wells Fargo has no right to see, use, and sell my data. 

Thank you! 

XXXX, XXXX
