Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My Experian account was XXXX  due to XXXX XXXX XXXX attempts. I tried to reset my password, but the system only allows verification through an old phone number I no longer have access to. There is no option to update my phone number or verify my identity in any other way. 

I called Experian at ( XXXX ) XXXX several times, but I was only able to interact with an automated system that repeatedly asked for my SSN and ZIP code. Even after entering everything correctly, it never connected me to a XXXX representative or gave me an option to update my contact details. 

As a result, I have no way to access my Experian account. I am willing to verify my identity through alternate methods like submitting a photo ID or selfie, as I've done with other financial institutions. Experian is the only one that does not provide a clear process to help in this situation, and it has caused unnecessary XXXX and inability to manage my credit information.
