Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I am unable to lift a security freeze on my credit report despite entering all the correct information, including the PIN I received at the time of the security freeze. Instead, Experian requires that I mail copies of multiple documents to prove my identity. I am unable to make such copies due to COVID-19 and need lenders to access my credit as quickly as possible so that I can fix financial issues that came up due to COVID-19. In addition, Experian makes it impossible for me to reach a live customer service representative by phone. I am extremely frustrated by Experian 's poor service and request that they address this immediately.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — 
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
My wife and I had begun the approval process for a mortgage with Wells Fargo. During the process, Wells Fargo wanted to ensure we would be long-term customers of the bank, and requested for us to open accounts there comprising most/all of our liquid assets, which we did promptly. 

We unfortunately did not close on the home and decided to work with another lender. 

My assets have been frozen at Wells Fargo for over two weeks as the bank has asked for ID verification ( a notarized US Permanent Resident card for me, since I am XXXX ). I have sent multiple copies with no response and my assets are still frozen - I am unable to transfer money, unable to sell/buy stocks, etc. It is distressing as I await a home closing for which I need access to the funds. 

I should also note, this verification was not needed at the outset. Wells Fargo was happy to accept my $ XXXX in assets. I sent in reams of documents for my accounts, including the mortgage. 

This is improper - to have all of my assets frozen for weeks without service. It is at best, incompetent, at worst, retaliatory, but in reality, likely a proper reflection of a rudderless banking organization that has done everything in its power to tarnish its reputation over the past decade.
