Ex wife's address on my CR!!

Hcontreras · ‎01-18-2014

I've disputed and have had my ex wife's address removed twice from my credit report. It keeps coming back and showing up on my report. I have never lived at that address nor have I ever used that address for anything. This will be the third time I dispute this. It will likely show back up again. What can I do??

One of your creditors has this address in its information concerning you. Therefore whenever you dispute to remove the info, your creditor is updating their information and adding it back to your CR. You could attempt to contact the CRA and ask them from which lender this address is being added from, then contact them and change the information.

There's a chance its coming from a joint account you both had but she has continued to maintained

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

See, but that's the problem. We have no joint accounts. My ex and I got divorced years ago (1997). This is baffling me!! All of my accounts are all new (6 months old). I have a fairly thin file.
