I'm stumped. I'm not so sure what is the answer. I'll do some Googling and get back to you if I bump into an good answer. You should email the people at Lending Tree as they probably could help you..

I did not mean to sound rude, this post just caught me off guard. I was expecting one thing and got another...

Try disputing w/ the CRA's first. Dispute this week, and see how it goes..

Then.

Ask for a proc. request if they verify. It helps to dispute old addresses off too, where you were living at that time, especially for public records. Good luck..

Here's the thing: This item was verified and the address was the same as the listing..

Here's the problem: The address given to me doesn't report to the CRA's. They will verify but not report. So who reported?.

Are the CRA required to provide me with the name of whomever listed this item in the first place?.

It would seem to me if they could not, they would have to delete. Am I off base here?..

As an update, just got letters from Exp and Eq, both refusing to look into this..

Should I write the AG's office(s)?..

If this is a public record, they may not report it directly to the cra's themselves ( court or county may not) but there are people who make a living reporting.

Pr.

's to cra's (and verifying them). If the court says they verified the info, then it will stay on your cr..

I would try a procedure request, because that sometimes trips them up, especially this time of year...

The city or county courthouse has public records that.

Anybody can obtain just by going in person and looking at the lists or journals. I think the reporting of these public records is done by some obscure.

Public record publishing company that sells this information to anybody that wants it. I have seen pay websites that will do a P R search on anybody for a few bucks. Who these people are and what is their liability concerning accurate reporting of this information is a big question that I also would klike to know the answer for. These same people reported a vacated judgment on my CR as "satisfied". This.

Was after I disputed it as "not mine" bcause it was showing up as "unpaid". Later I sent them a copy of the order to vacate and they deleted at EQ..

What abunch of incompetent idiots whomever they are. The average joe that doesn't have any idea that this stuff goes on and damages his credit big time!..

I did a procedure request a got a deletion from TU. The other two sent me the name and address of the courthouse, exact same as listing. But they do not report to anyone, so they can't be the one who listed this item. Someone else listed this item..

Are the CRA's required by law to provide me with that information?..

As an update, I was searching thru the FCRA, and could not find anything that would cover this. Am I missing something?.

All that I can come up with is, if the CRA cannot provide me with the name of the furnisher of information, this can not be verified with the original source, and should be deleted...

You are missing something. The item you are talking about is.

A matter of public record.

Many counties have the information available online. It isn't hard for the CRA to verify..

Gib..

Gib, Your quite right of course, but this county doesn't report to anyone, so some other reporter listed this item. I was trying to find out who..

Every other item on my credit report says who reported it..

Of course I'm trying to use this fact to get this item deleted...

You have a valid argument Fuba, if you get deletions based on it please let me know cause I'll be next..

There are several companies that provide public record information online..

Pacer.

Banko.

Are two off the top of my head..

In my opinion the CRA should be required to get this info from the courthouse but I doubt that the do.....

They are required, Fuba, and within 15 days!.

The section follows..

This was my thinking. The court house is not the any furnisher of information , they don't report directly..

I sent another dispute, and sent a complaint to the AG's office. Maybe a little heat will get action...

Nodding Fuba,.

When I first found this site, I had 2 bogus judgments listed on my reports. Truly not mine! The entries enraged me, I've enough problems and time in trying to get legitimate accounts reported correctly..

Anyway, they were reported by collection agencies 2 seperate ones, they'd gone to the court house and transferred the information..

It was a person who shared my maiden name but nothing else..

Additionally, I wrote to the court itself and the clerk forwarded copies of their files to me. I'd provided her with a copy of my driver's license and identifying information with a lengthy letter. She said the same thing, the court's themselves don't report the information to anyone it is however public information..

BK's are different though, because pacer is set up by the BK courts themselves to provide the information under the freedom of information act. However, if that was the source of the information, the CRA should still let you know who or how it is being confirmed..

In fact, now you've got me thinking further for BK's specifically, it's not good enough to tell you the name and address of the court because the court isn't furnishing the information. I may pursue that in a late chod!!!!!!!!!.

Sassy..

I wonder if it is possible to get the court to suppress SSN info...........
