Should I have my date of birth corrected????

[seajay]

Hi all,

I was advised previously to have personal information that is incorrect on CR's corrected and sometimes can be done easily by calling Credit Bureau.

My credit report is a mess because of bk 7. Anyway, I was just looking at my date of birth on EXP. CR. My date of birth is 1 year off.

I was getting ready to call them about all the different addresses they have me residing at (one of them is a bank) and have them correct the addresses and also correct my date of birth.

Then I thought, could my date of birth being incorrect work to my advantage as far as have bk 7 removed?

Please let me know what you think. I will wait to make that call for other opinions.

Thanks,

Seajay

Get it corrected. It wouldnt change anything relating to your BK that I know of. With all the identity fraud going around, you want your records to be as accurate as possible.

And trying to use the tactic in saying that because of an incorrect birth date, this credit item is confused with someone else may end up getting your credit file split.

I think J_Snow is right in that you ought to keep your personal data as accurate as possible.

Thanks for the feedback !! I agree that personal information should be correct. I just wanted to check as I have made some mistakes, in the past, when trying to get TL's corrected.

Appreciate your wisdom !!
