Anonymous Posted June 5, 2003 Report Share Posted June 5, 2003 This is my first post here, so I'm not sure if I'm asking in the right section, but anyhow...I am curious to know if anyone else has had a problem obtaining a copy of their credit report, and if so, what they did about it. To explain my situation a bit further....I've recently applied for several credit cards, and because of the reasons for rejction, I suspect that there's incorrect info on my credit report. However, I have been unable to obtain a copy of the report because both Experian and Equifax say that they couldn't locate a credit profile based on the info I gave them. Needless to say, this is very puzzling and I'm not sure what to do about it....any advice would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocDon Posted June 5, 2003 Report Share Posted June 5, 2003 Didn't they explain what information you need to send them? Something has to be coming up under your SSN. Call them back and ask them what you need to send them to prove you are who you say you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anonymous Posted June 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2003 Neither credit bureau gave specific reasons in their letter as to why they couldn't locate my credit profile, so I'm really not sure what is going on. I know that I'd forgotten to send a copy of the letter of denial to Experian (stupid mistake I know, but this was my first time requesting a copy of my report) But as I did not make that mistake with Equifax, I'm rather confused. As for what's coming up under my Social Security number, that's a really good question, as the reason Sears rejected my application for a credit card is that I'm underage....when I'll be 25 next month.

timbercreektech Posted June 5, 2003 Report Share Posted June 5, 2003 Jane, Jane Grey is a very common name. I did a search on whitepages.com and got 18. There are probably 1000 or more in the US. I would do as advised and call them directly to find out what you may need to send them.Good Luck and WELCOME!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
