In accordance with the fair credit reporting act, the list of accounts below has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681. 

Account name 1 : XXXX XXXXXXXX Account number 1 : XXXX Account name 2 : XXXXXXXX XXXX Account number 2 : XXXX Account name 3 : XXXX XXXX  Account number 3 : XXXX I looked at my Experian credit report back in XXXX and noticed some things are incomplete and inaccurate. It ranges from everything to dates being wrong, credit limits wrong, balances wrong and most importantly Payment history inaccurate. I have sent numerous dispute letters and can not get them to delete or modify the accounts appropriately. My screenshots from XXXX prove the misinformation they are spreading that remains on my credit report. According to the fair credit reporting act whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a credit report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates according to 15 USC 1681 ( e ) ( b ).

And according to 15 USC 1681i 5 they are supposed to do this ( 5 ) treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information ( A ) In general, after any further investigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall- ( i ) Promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation; and ( ii ) Promptly notify the furnisher of the information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer. 

And according to 15 USC 1681s-2 they are not supposed to furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

Please hold Experian accountable by making them remove these accounts from my credit report and send me a copy of the updated report.

My partner and I, are not married. My partner and I attempted to obtain a loan together. This was in XX/XX/2023. The loan application was not approved. It was advised my credit was the issue. My partner obtained a loan on his own. 
However, my partner and I wanted both of us on the loan. My partner went to the establishment on XX/XX/XXXX to discuss future loan prospects. Stating to the finance/compliance officer that we discussed financing options and wanted us both to be on the loan. Not necessarily to obtain a loan through the establishment. I was not present at this meeting. The finance/compliance officer then pulled my transunion credit report, showing my partner my credit report and discussing specic items, i.e. My student loans, and my credit score. This was done without my permission. Yes, I had applied for a loan, however I was denied. Thus ending any need for this establishment to have access to my credit report. As I stated, I was denied. My partner and I had discussed obtaining a loan together but had not signed any additional or new applications.
