Summary Of Rights
LAWDOG is intended to assist in the understanding of basic concepts. See Disclaimer. Always obtain legal advice from legal professionals.
The Federal Trade Commission has published three notices that it is required to prescribe under recent amendments to the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). These are: A summary of consumer rights under the FCRA; a notice setting forth the responsibilities under the FCRA of those who regularly furnish consumer report information to consumer reporting agencies; and a notice setting forth the duties of any person who uses information covered by the FCRA. These notices must be distributed by consumer reporting agencies beginning September 30, 1997, the date the FCRA amendments became effective. A consumer reporting agency will be in compliance with the FCRA if it provides notices substantially similar to those prescribed by the Commission.
