How do you find out when an account on your credit report was closed?

Each entry on your credit report that reports financial activity is called a "tradeline". If an account was closed, charged off or paid off, it will have a statement under the tradeline to that effect. A word to the wise...never close an open tradeline - even if you are not using it. When you close a tradeline your credit score will drop to some degree.


What if your credit report has your name misspelled?

Contact the three credit reporting agencies directly. First get a free copy of your report at annunalcreditreport.com if you have not already. Alternate names can be found under other, alias or aka. Also listed with creditors on your file. If it is under other names variations and you don't have any open account with the misspelling you can have them removed by disputing online, postal mail or by phone providing your personal information. If it however is the primary name on your credit file I have found that not all credit agencies will correct or remove. If accounts are still open with the wrong spelling of your name you should contact the creditors directly and ask them to correct. If the name is not yours and not your account dispute. Good luck.
