I recently had a credit report made, we are trying to refinance our house and get some equity out to pay off cc's, anyway, I believe that part of my report has been mixed with my SIL. We have the same name. She passed away about 2 years ago but before that time she started getting mail for my husband and now on my credit report both my husband and I are listed as living at her address for a portion of time. Who do I call to fix this? Does anybody have any ideas? TIA,
Annie

I would contact each of the 3 credit reporting bureaus - Experian, TransUnion and Equifax and talk to them about how you would remove these from your credit report. You can do a Google Search with the words 'Credit Bureaus' and they will come up. The credit bureaus will then give you further info on what to do. I wish you luck with this, it will probably take time and be very frustrating.
