Complaint narrative:
I am having problems with all three credit reporting companies removing the freeze, fraud alert on my credit report.. When I call in they tell me they can't verify my info even though I have given them my social, name, dob and told them current credit cards, monthly payment amount loan balance amount and with who. I want the freeze removed and also the fraud alert removed on all 3 credit reports asap. I have tried in the last few years to fax in the request along with my DL and they still refuse to take this off my credit report. I have been denied credit because of this.
