Complaint narrative:
I, XXXX XXXX, have encountered multiple violations of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and I am seeking immediate resolution. These violations have caused significant harm to my credit report and consumer rights. 

First, I discovered that several of my credit reports contain inaccurate information and unverified debts that were reported by various debt XXXX. According to 15 U.S. Code 1681c, credit information must be accurate, and I have requested that these errors be corrected. Under 15 U.S. Code 1692g, I requested validation of debts for accounts listed on my credit report, such as those from XXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, and others. These debt XXXX have not provided the necessary proof of these debts, including original contracts or signed agreements, and therefore, I expect them to be removed from my report. If they fail to provide proof as required under the law, civil liability XXXX apply, with penalties of up to {$1000.00} per violation under FCRA Section 616. 

Additionally, I found unauthorized hard inquiries made on my credit report, including XXXX from Bank XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and another from XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. These inquiries were made without my consent, which violates 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) regarding permissible purposes for credit report inquiries. I have requested these unauthorized inquiries be deleted immediately. 

I also found discrepancies related to late payments and finance charges. Under FCRA Section 623 ( a ) ( 3 ), the information reported must be accurate, and I have asked that the incorrect payment history on my account with XXXX be updated to reflect that the account was paid as agreed and was never late. 

Furthermore, debt XXXX have violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) by reporting inaccurate debts and contacting third parties with my personal information without my consent. This is unlawful, and I demand that they cease these unfair practices immediately. 

Finally, I was not informed about my right to opt-out of sharing my personal information as required by FCRA Section 603 ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ). This omission is a violation of my rights as a consumer. 

In summary, I have identified numerous violations related to inaccurate debt reporting, unauthorized inquiries, failure to disclose my rights, and unfair debt collection practices. I am requesting immediate corrections and validation of the disputed information, or the removal of these items from my credit report. If these issues are not resolved promptly, I will pursue legal action, as provided under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and other relevant laws.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

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 "
