******* credit searches by FNB

Why is FNB conducting a search on my credit profile without my permission? This is an abuse of my position as a customer of the bank and in contravention of the Popia Act which clearly states that it is ******* to request a credit report without the written consent of the consumer. MBG has had no authorisation from me to conduct a search. Searches affect my credit rating. Extremely concerning that one of the four major banks is involved in ******* activities.
