This is getting very frustrating. Recently I've been doing a thorough check of our financials, just as a precaution. I'd never looked at my credit report or scores before, other than what I'd seen from insurance companies, etc. that gave them to me. I recently pulled my credit report and got scores from a couple of the bureaus, no issue. But my wife can't. For the record, she has never had a credit card ACCOUNT in her name. But, she has rented an apartment in her name, been an authorized user on several of my cards for years, and her parents' cards when living at home (all account holders have excellent credit). However, none of the usual methods, I.E. CreditKarma, annual credit report.com, CreditWise, etc can find anything on her, or say that the information doesn't match. I'm stumped. I know for a fact that one of our credit cards reports authorized users to the bureaus. Does she not have credit, or is this just a technicality with addresses or something else? I called the annual credit report number and we submitted her info over the automated system, so we'll see if they show up in the mail. I've heard that this often doesn't work though.
We've been married for 8 years so any name change would have long since been settled, FWIW. We've tried old addresses and maiden name to no avail.
