Credit Report Errors
Your credit report affects your ability to qualify for loans, credit cards, insurance and even jobs. When the information on your credit report contains inaccurate, outdated or incomplete information, it can be detrimental and disqualify you for some of these important necessities in your life. It is quite common for credit reports to contain errors.
Consumers should keep track of their credit report and by law, are permitted to dispute the credit report, requesting that any erroneous information be removed. If the required proof is presented and the creditors refuse to remove or correct that information from your credit report, you may be able to file a lawsuit to recover financial compensation for any resulting losses.

Accounts may still be listed after the legal removal deadline from your report.
If the account was transferred from a creditor to a debt collector, your report may have more than one date for when the account became delinquent - which sets off how long it may remain on your report.
Accounts YOU closed may appear as though the creditor closed the account.
If you are divorced, your ex-spouse's information may still be mixed in with yours.
Judgements, tax liens, bankruptcies, and lawsuits are considered public records and can be harmful to the consumer's credit score. Make sure your credit report is accurate in who the public record actually belongs to and matched the actual court records.
If you were a victim of identity theft and had an account fraudulently opened or used, you may have faulty information in your credit report.
Credit reporting agencies sometimes confuse names, addresses, Social Security numbers or employers. Occasionally, family members with the same name get mixed on credit reports.
