(1) With respect to a real estate secured consumer credit transaction payable in installments, other than one pursuant to a revolving credit account, if the creditor credits payments made after the due date as of the date of receipt rather than the date payment was due, the creditor must clearly and conspicuously disclose to the consumer at or before the time that credit is extended the effect of untimely payments using language in substantially the following form:
(2) A creditor that makes or arranges for extensions of consumer loans secured by a dwelling and that uses credit scores for that purpose shall, upon request of the consumer, provide to the consumer to whom the credit report relates, as soon as practicable and reasonable, but in a period not to exceed thirty days, a copy of the information specifically required to be disclosed pursuant to section 5-18-107 (1) in a form obtained from a consumer reporting agency as defined in section 5-18-103 (4). The creditor may charge a reasonable fee for making such information available to the consumer and such charge shall be an additional charge within the meaning of section 5-2-202 and not part of the finance charge.
(3) (a) Nothing in subsection (2) of this section shall require the creditor to:
(I) Explain to the consumer the information specifically required to be disclosed pursuant to section 5-18-107 (1);
(II) Disclose any information other than the information required pursuant to subsection (2) of this section;
(III) Disclose any credit score or related information obtained by the creditor after the transaction occurs; or
(IV) Provide more than one disclosure to any one consumer per credit transaction.
(b) The creditor's obligation pursuant to subsection (2) of this section and this subsection (3) shall be limited to providing a copy of the information that was received from a consumer reporting agency, as defined in section 5-18-103 (4). A creditor who uses a credit score has no liability under this subsection (3) or subsection (2) of this section for the content of the credit score information received from a consumer reporting agency or from the omission of any information within the report provided by the consumer reporting agency.
