When I answer honestly, "I'm not familiar with this person," I don't pass. Anyone know how I can get a copy of these public records OR, how I can clean it up?</P> Sat, 17 Jan 2015 05:16:43 GMT toi34 2015-01-17T05:16:43Z https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Card-Applications/Public-Records-Database/m-p/3746632#M28975 <P>I tried to get an increase on my Bloomingdale's card tonight but I failed the public records questions -- &nbsp;I always do 'cuz they ask me about people I do not know, let alone where they live and what month their birthdays are in??!
