A few months back I tried to get a store credit card. They declined because of bankruptcy. I have never filed bankruptcy. After that, I needed a place to live, so I tried get get several apartments…..All of them declined me because of this bankruptcy. I looked up my credit online, and could not find anything about bankruptcy. I paid off the (2) small bills that were on my credit, and managed to get an apartment by showing them my parents bankruptcy papers. They said it happens all the time!!
I cant figure out how to get it off my credit, or even see it on my credit. I think I used FreeCreditReport.com…
(Me and my father both have the same 1st name)
Please help.
