Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

There really is no such thing as getting credit for it. You would only get compensation if you are damaged and it is difficult to see how one phone bill not in your name would damage you. You received a bill every month, how would you not know after six years that it wasnot in your name... Even if you could sue, most courts would probably say you knew or should have known and should have corrected it six years ago and you would never see anything like what you suggest... Sorry

I am missing something here. The bill is not in your name, was it not mailed to you? was your name not on it? Could this be a joint account? Whose name is the bill in and what is that persons relationship to you?Really need more facts.
