Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes — 
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (GA)

On, XX/XX/2022, I applied for credit with XXXX XXXX. Their response was for me to call to verify my identity. When I called, I couldn't be verified because my phone number didn't match what was on the fraud alert. Therefore, I submitted my first dispute to Experian on the XXXX ( Report # XXXX ) asking to update my phone number. However, the results didn't go in my favor. So, I submitted a second dispute ( Report # XXXX ) for the same issue on the XXXX. Received response on the XXXX, " If our reinvestigation has not resolved your dispute, you have several options : You have the right to add a statement of up to 100 words to your report. If you provide a consumer statement that contains medical information related to service providers or medical procedures, then you expressly consent to Experian including this information in every credit report we issue about you.
