Consumer Credit Reports – equifax experian score

l G asked:


Has anyone had or suspect they have had their Consumer Rights Violated by any Bank in Alabama or Florida? Namely,First Gulf Bank!! Or perhaps any Bank controlled by the Holding Company Alabama National BanCorporation. Violations may include, Failure to comply with Federal Regulation and Codes such as The Truth in Lending Act, The Fair Credit Reporting Act, The Consumer Credit Protection Act or others as Regulated by the Federal Trade Commission. Please advise if you have. I have and I suspect MANY others have as well.

I have applied for jobs that say that they pull a consumer credit report on you. I have recently had a Chapter 7 discharge of debt. Can a company legally use this as a reason to not hire me?

I am in the process of divorcing and I recently found out that my husband hired a private investigator to obtain personal info about me. I accept the fact that much information is publicly available to anyone with the time, knowledge and/or money to find it, but is it really legal for someone other than myself to obtain my credit report? I don’t owe my husband any money and I have not hidden any assets, and he never even asked me for it, he simply had a PI gather my credit report along with other info: checking to see if I had ever been married, etc. I just feel that it is a big privacy violation and I am wondering if I can complain about it to any agency. I did not think that consumer credit reports were considered public information, but please correct me if I am wrong.
