<prompt> Human: So I tried to get a car loan a few months ago only to get shot down. Turns out there were four total things on my experian report that werent mine.To this day, three have been removed.The only one not to be removed is a gas bill from national grid. Only problem is, the account was open when I was six months old. Since my social security number is tied to the account... Ng swears up and down my parents used my social. My parents swear up and down they did not. Keep in mind my dad and I have the same name with a different middle initial, and the gas at my parents apartment was under my dads name until my parents moved to the house we live at now. It was once they moved into the house my social was used.So please kind people of personal finance, is there any way my parents DIDNT use my social? I really dont want to assume the worst case scenario.Assistant: Keep in mind my dad and I have the same name with a different middle initialIf your mom kept everyones social security card, theres a chance she could have grabbed the wrong one thumbing through it. If the address they have on record matches your parents address, that may have been what happened.Human: so what can i do if thats the case? Im looking to get this removed as its killing my credit.  <response>: It still wasnt you, the fact that they had your SSC doesnt matter.
