How critical is it to get aliases and incorrect names off of your credit report? I have over 20 different name variations and I have no idea where they come from. I was able to dispute some with Experian but they left them on my account. Does having all those name variations hinder me at all? And will getting them removed help me at all.
2 of the aliases are causing me significant problems. Can I go down to the court and get some type of legal documentation to reflect what my real name is?
Also since the extending of credit is a binding agreement between 2 parties, wouldn't part of debt validation be proving that this agreement exists. Signed application or something? How can a debt be considered mine if I didn't ask for any credit?
Thanks
I am in the same boat. My husband and I both have a ton of AKAs on our reports, and whether they hinder us or not, I hate them being there. there are so many that are wrong, and I am done with it. I sent letters with copies of our licenses, birth certificates, marriage license, and told them the only name that should be on there is our current first, middle and last, and on mine the first, middle, and maiden last for my only AKA.
I also told them to remove all addresses except our last previous address and our current address.
Fingers crossed they fix it asap.
HI,
I would suggest getting ALL of your ID's in the same name. Because it will only cause problems later in life.
When my mother-in-law was sick, we applied for social security for her.
But her birth cert. was one letter off, from the name she went by for years.
Well she died before her soc sec was approved.
Other things we also applied for her......was denied, for the same reason.
I would hate to see, all these problems happen to someone else, Especially since we are post 9/11.
So that is why I'm saying while you are young, go ahead a fix the problems now, before they become Huge problems.
