Mistaken Idenity on Credit Report
I tried to get my credit report tonight and it asked me about college loans that my brother has. Basically the credit reporting companies think I am him. I can't get my credit report because I can't answer the verification questions. My brother and I have very similar names. There is only two letters different in our first name, our middle name, last name, and home address are the same. We have different social security numbers. What should I do? My brother has good credit so it hasn't effected me yet. What should I do?

Get the answer from your brother, or contact the credit reporting ocmpanies directly.

And good luck about getting them to do anything. They still think I am 12 different people with the same SSN. If worst come to worst, you can get a court order against them, forcing them to do their job.

I've always had weird credit issues too. I remember when I turned 18 I went to go get my first credit card and they wouldn't let me have one cause they said I had too many credit cards with too high of outstanding balances in my name already... weird.

I've seen this before - are you two twins (born on the same day)?
