Bill > SSB1145

Introduced Session

This bill relates to solicitation by a financial institution using prescreened trigger lead information from a consumer report. Under the bill, a financial institution shall not use an unfair or deceptive practice when using prescreened mortgage trigger lead information derived from a consumer report to solicit a consumer who has applied for a loan with a different financial institution. “Consumer report”, “financial institution”, and “mortgage trigger lead” are defined in the bill. A financial institution is engaged in an unfair or deceptive practice when in an initial phase of a solicitation from a lender or loan broker, the financial institution fails to clearly and conspicuously state that the financial institution S.F. _____ is not affiliated with the financial institution with which the consumer initially applied; fails to conform to state and federal law relating to prescreened solicitations using consumer reports, including but not limited to the requirement to make a firm offer of credit to the consumer; uses information regarding a consumer who has opted out of prescreened offers of credit or who has placed the consumer’s contact information on a federal do-not-call registry; or solicits a consumer with an offer of certain rates, terms, or costs, but subsequently changes the rates, terms, or costs to the detriment of the consumer. A financial institution that violates the bill is engaged in an unlawful practice under Code section 714.16.
