(Formerly Sec. 36-432). Disclosure to consumer of information re credit report

(a) No creditor shall take adverse action based wholly or in part on a credit report on any consumer applying to such creditor for credit for personal, family or household purposes without first disclosing to the consumer the name and address of the credit rating agency which issued the report. (b) Upon written request and proper identification of any consumer, a credit rating agency shall disclose to the consumer, within five business days of receipt of the consumer's request, the nature and substance of all information in its files, including (1) any credit score or predictor relating to the consumer, as required by and in a form and manner that complies with the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act and commentary adopted and enforced by the Federal Trade Commission or the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection; (2) a record of all inquiries, by recipient, including the recipient's name which resulted in providing a credit report concerning the consumer during the preceding twelve-month period; (3) a clear and concise explanation of the information; and (4) a written summary of the consumer's rights under state and federal consumer credit reporting statutes in a form substantially similar to the summary in section 36a-699a. The credit rating agency may charge no more than five dollars for the first request for such information within the preceding twelve months and no more than seven dollars and fifty cents for any additional request within the same twelve-month period for such information, provided such disclosure shall be made without charge to the consumer if the request for disclosure is made not more than sixty days after notification to the consumer of an adverse action by a creditor.
