Should I include my full account number when writing letters to dispute items on my credit report? How can I obtain the complete account number?
When writing letters to dispute items on your credit report, it is not necessary to include your full account number. Instead, include whatever numbers you do know and use X’s for the remainder. The credit bureaus will be able to identify you using your social security number, name, and address. Remember, they are the ones who reported the information in the first place, so it is their responsibility to locate the account. In case you’re wondering how to obtain the complete account number, you can find it on your credit report or by contacting the creditor directly.
