Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation on Your Credit Report

In short: Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation is a state-chartered bank that is not a member of the Federal Reserve System, supervised by the FDIC and its state regulator headquartered in Catlettsburg, Kentucky. The charter behind FDIC certificate 267 dates to January 1, 1931 — a twentieth-century charter, which means its records have outlived more than one generation of account-numbering. As of the 06/30/2026 call report, Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation held $328 million in assets and operated 5 FDIC-reported offices. As the originating lender, Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation furnishes the tradeline itself — meaning a §623 dispute reaches the party holding the underlying paperwork, and a §611 dispute runs in parallel through the bureaus. Information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable can be disputed under the FCRA. Outcomes depend on what the furnisher can verify, and results vary.

Disputing an original creditor is not the same as disputing a collector

Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation is an original creditor — the institution whose name was on the account when it was opened. That matters for two reasons. First, the FDCPA, which governs debt collectors, generally does not apply to a creditor collecting its own debt in its own name, so the “debt validation” request that works against a collection agency is not the right tool here. Second, as the furnisher of the tradeline, Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation has direct obligations under FCRA §623 to investigate a dispute you send it and to correct or delete information it cannot verify as accurate.

Dispute with the bureaus — FCRA §611

File with Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. They must generally investigate within 30 days and tell the furnisher. Free, and you can do it yourself.

Dispute with the furnisher — FCRA §623

Send Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation a direct written dispute. It must investigate and must not continue reporting information it knows is inaccurate. Keep copies and proof of delivery.

Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation questions, answered

Is Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation FDIC-insured, and what is its certificate number?

Yes — deposits are FDIC-insured under certificate 267. That record lists Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation as a state-chartered bank that is not a member of the Federal Reserve System, supervised by the FDIC and its state regulator headquartered in Catlettsburg, KY, chartered January 1, 1931, with $328 million in assets across 5 FDIC-reported offices on the 06/30/2026 call report.

Who regulates Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation, and where do I escalate if a dispute fails?

As a state-chartered bank that is not a member of the Federal Reserve System, supervised by the FDIC and its state regulator, Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation answers primarily to that regulator. Where a §611 and a §623 dispute both come back "verified" against documentation you hold, escalate to the CFPB, and note that FCRA §§616–617 create a private right of action. You do not need to hire anyone to take either step.

How many credit-card complaints does the CFPB show against Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation?

No number is published here. When we queried the CFPB credit-card complaint data, no company key matched Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation exactly, and we will not approximate one by partial-name matching — that routinely pulls in unrelated companies with similar names. Rather than imply a count we cannot source, we leave it out. The database is public and searchable at consumerfinance.gov.

How long can a Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation charge-off stay on my credit report?

The FCRA ceiling is roughly seven years measured from the date of first delinquency on the Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation account. Neither a charge-off, a sale to a debt buyer, nor a transfer between servicers resets that date. If the date of first delinquency moves forward, that is re-aging, and it is itself an FCRA violation worth disputing.

What is the difference between disputing with Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation and disputing with a collector?

Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation is the original creditor and holds the underlying file — application, statements, posting history. A collector typically receives a data file, not the original paperwork. Disputing directly with Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation under §623 puts the question to the party that can actually check it against source documents.

Does Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation report to all three credit bureaus?

There is no legal requirement to furnish to every bureau, and a bank operating 5 offices often does not. Pull all three files and compare them. With Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation, a balance that differs between bureaus usually reflects different refresh dates; an account status or date of first delinquency that differs is the real signal worth disputing.

Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation changed names or was acquired — why does my report show two accounts?

One account showing twice is a classic conversion artifact. Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation has operated since 1931, and a charter of that age has usually been through at least one core-system migration. An account may legitimately appear under a predecessor name, but the same debt must not report twice with two balances. Dispute the duplicate and name both tradelines explicitly.

Can I dispute a Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation account myself without paying anyone?

Yes. Both the §611 bureau dispute and the §623 direct dispute to Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation are free and available to you directly. No company can do anything for you that you cannot do yourself, and nobody can lawfully promise you a specific result. Anything accurate and timely stays on the report.

Where is Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation headquartered, and does that affect my dispute?

Kentucky Farmers Bank Corporation is headquartered in Catlettsburg, Kentucky, with 5 FDIC-reported offices. Headquarters does not change your federal rights — the FCRA applies identically everywhere — but it does tell you which state banking regulator shares oversight, which matters if you escalate past the CFPB.
