Hi all,

It's been a while since I was here. Since my AOS was approved I've got a job with a bank and now working pretty hard and trying to keep up with the house too.

This is just a quick question and wondered if anyone had any experience with this. A couple of weeks ago I applied online for a JC Penny's card and was rejected. I got the rejection letter and it said the reason was that the SSN I gave them did not match the SSN that the credit agencies had on file. Well, I know I filled in the form correctly. Today I've tried to get a free copy of my report from the credit agencies and I can't get it because they say that the SSN I am giving them is not matching the # they have on file. I cant file a dispute with them as you need a credit report to do that. How can I correct this? I know they had the correct SSN a few months ago because I got the Free Annual Report with no problems, so how can that information be wrong now?

Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you

Kate

"The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) requires that consumers be told when an adverse credit report has affected the service they receive and they must be told how they can obtain a free copy of the credit report so that they can dispute any errors in it."

If the credit reporting agency was not listed in the notice you received, I would contact TransUnion, Equifax and Experian each by phone and explain the problem. Have your SSN, drivers license and other identifying info available as they may ask for it to prove you are who you are.

I haven't had your problem, but I did have a bad listing at one of the providers and could not get my free credit report online for that one because the security question was about a car payment that wasn't mine. I wrote them instead, got my report, disputed the item, and had it cleared. Good luck

I would say call JC Penney to go over things with them and ask what's the source of their info and/or call the credit bureaus.

Equifax (800-525-6285);

Trans Union: (800-680-7289); and

Experian: (888-397-3742).

SSA doesn't verify SSNs for credit cards, but you might want to call the SSA 800# (800-772-1213) just to make sure your name and date of birth are correct.

SSA offices can provide you with an SSN Verification Printout or send JC Penney an SSA-7028 to verify your SSN if that will help.
