General Information Services, Inc Credit Reporting Complaint

General Information Services, Inc Credit reporting department,

Incorrect information on credit report Public record Tennessee

I applied for employment with the - - company and was offered a position. They conducted a background check and credit report, which I agreed to. The company that provided the report is GIS. The only thing that showed up on that report was a criminal charge that was in public record. I have not been convicted of anything, as this is still an ongoing case. I spoke to the manager at the - - location that I was offered the position at and they informed me that, due to that charge showing up on that report, they were retracting their offer for employment. I contacted GIS to discuss this matter and they told me as long as it is public record they can report anything, regardless of conviction status. Also, the arrest date in the report is incorrect. I have been completely honest with - - throughout the entire hiring process. I disclosed all charges that I had been convicted of, which is all that was legally required of me according to my attorney. This report essentially makes me appear dishonest. Also, in the section on the report titled Social Security Validation and Death Master Index Check '', the company reported that my Social Security number was issued between - and -. It was actually issued in -. This report is riddled with inaccuracies and I consider it detrimental to my future employment opportunities with - - or any company that uses GIS for credit/background reporting. I have a child on the way soon. I can not afford for this type of mistake to hinder my financial future.
