To tell me I am not who I am requesting information I have already sent off in a CLEAR VIOLATION OF MY CONSUMER RIGHTS. This took well over 35-45 days in order to get a letter telling me that they applaud my efforts, need more documents to verify my identity, or just be flat-out ignored. I will be reaching out consumer rights protection group to see the best way to hold these 3 companies accountable. Here are the accounts that I originally put into question.
