Could anyone help me i really have no clue what to do!! yesterday i recieved a letter from a debt collection agency it was a verification letter for someone with the same first name as me and a very close last name one letter different, i think we have previously lived at the same house as i recived letters for them at my old address but just returned them to sender. This morning i decided to do a credit check and have found her on my credit check with 2 address ive never lived at and her husbands name is attached to me. How do i go about getting this removed as it has brought my credit raiting down. please can someone help!!
