I know a few of my friends just checked their credit scores online since it’s a new year and all. When I got my new job in November, they ran a check on my credit and I asked for a copy of it. According to a couple of the departments, my main residence is in Columbiana, OH instead of Columbus.
I signed up for a stupid JC Penney card a few years back to get 10% discount and have never used it since. There hasn’t been any fraud activity on it, its just got the wrong city. I’ve tried to have it corrected, but it hasn’t worked.
I have six or seven other cards at the address of the condo i just bought where I live, but somehow I live at the address of the card I used once three years ago. Sighh…
Here’s a good link on MyMoneyBlog on how to get a free credit score.
