The federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is designed to promote accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information if the files of every "consumer reporting agency" (CRA). Most CRA's are credit bureaus that gather and sell information about you - such as if you pay your bills on time or have filed bank- ruptcy - to creditors, employers, landlords, and other busi- nesses. You can find the complete text of the FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681-1681u, at the Federal Trade Commission's web site (http://www.ftc.gov). The FCRA gives you specific rights, as outlined below. You may have additional rights under state law. You may contact a state or local consumer protection agency or a state attorney general to learn those rights.

•You must be told if information in your file has been used against you. Anyone who uses information from a CRA to take action against you - such as denying an application for credit, insurance, or employment - must tell you, and give you the name, address, and phone number of the CRA that provided the consumer report.

•You can find out what is in your file. At your request, a CRA must give you the information in your file, and a list of everyone who has requested it recently. There is no charge for the report if a person has taken action against you be- cause of information supplied by the CRA, if you request the report within 60 days of receiving notice of the action you also are entitled to one free report every twelve months upon request if you certify that (1) you are unemployed and plan to seek employment within 60 days, (2) you are on welfare, or (3) your report is inaccurate due to fraud. Otherwise, a CRA may charge you up to eight dollars.

•You can dispute inaccurate information with the CRA. If you tell a CRA that your file contains inaccurate informa- tion, the CRA must investigate the items (usually within 30 days) by presenting to its information source all relevant evi- dence you submit, unless your dispute is frivolous. The source must review your evidence and report its findings to the CRA. (The source also must advise national CRA's - to which it has provided the data - of any error). The CRA must give you a written report of the investigation results in any change. If the CRA's investigation does not resolve the dispute, you may add a brief statement to your file. The CRA must normally include a summary of your statement in future reports. If an item is deleted or a dispute statement is filed, you may ask that anyone who has recently received your report be noti- fied of the change.

•Inaccurate information must be corrected or deleted. A CRA must remove or correct inaccurate or unverified information from its files, usually within 30 days after you dispute it. How- ever, the CRA is not required to remove accurate data from your file unless it is outdated (as described below) or cannot be verified. If your dispute results in any change to your re- port, the CRA cannot reinsert into your file a disputed item unless the information source verifies its accuracy and com- pleteness. In addition, the CRA must give you a written no- tice telling you it has reinserted the item. The notice must include the name, address and phone number of the informa- tion source.

•You can dispute inaccurate items with the source of the information. If you tell anyone - such as a creditor who re- ports to a CRA - that you dispute an item, they may not then report the information to a CRA without including a notice of your dispute. In addition, once you've notified the source

of the error in writing, it may not continue to report the infor- mation if it is, in fact, an error.

•Outdated information may not be reported. In most cases, a CRA may not report negative information that is more than seven years old; ten years for bankruptcies.

•Access to your file is limited. A CRA - may provide infor- mation about you only to people with a need recognized by the FCRA - usually to consider an application with a credi- tor, insurer, employer, landlord, or other business.

•Your consent is required for reports that are provided to employers, or reports that contain medical information. A CRA may not give out information about you to your em- ployer, or prospective employer, without your written con- sent. A CRA may not report medical information about you to creditors, insurers, or employers without your permission.

•You may choose to exclude your name from CRA lists for unsolicited credit and insurance offers. Creditors and insur- ers may use file information as the basis for sending you un- solicited offers of credit or insurance. Such offers must in- clude a toll-free phone number for you to call if you want your name and address removed from future lists. If you call, you must be kept off the lists for two years. If you request, complete, and return the CRA form provided for this pur- pose, you must be taken off the lists indefinitely.

•You may seek damages from violators. If a CRA, a user or (in some cases) a provider of CRA data, violates the FCRA, you may sue them in state or federal court.

The FCRA gives several different federal agencies authority to enforce the FCRA:
