Horrendous service. There is no opportunity to talk to a person. Their machine glitches and repeats the prompts multiple times. The options are limited to two. If you have questions that are outside of two limited categories, then too bad. If you try to select one of the options, the machine offers to send you some vague info via mail or email.
This is NOT the 21st century service. It feels more like a scam than a customer-oriented service.
I am trying to place a temporary release on the freeze on my account. I get directed to a form that requires my name, current address, SSN, etc. I complete all required blanks including my PIN. When I submit the form it is rejected due to lack of prior address as well as a couple other items that are not on the form. In other words, it is requiring information that there is not option to enter. I have tried calling the only listed telephone number and run through a circular telephone tree.
Site does not accept my user name or password. I have tried entering my SSN and birthday which is rejected as unacknowledged.
The only option offered is to mail information. This will undoubtedly take at least two weeks with mail delays.
Please advise. This is extremely frustrating.
My identity was stolen June 01, 2024. They have created an Experian account with my information. I have tried to call several different numbers and I cannot get through to a live person. I cannot verify myself because the security questions and contact information do not pertain to me.
I don’t know what else to do. I am scared, sad and frustrated.
Speaking to a person is a joke.
Experian is not a real company with people it is only a digital Robot company and not even a good one where a robot can talk intelligently to a person. They should hire some teenagers to help with programming.
You live person hot line is a joke no human ever answered the phone after many many many phone calls
I cannot log into my Experian account because my login ID, password, birthday, and phone number are all incorrect according to them. I can’t get through to a human to fix this information. I just get lost in a calling-tree hall of mirrors that keeps offering just two options, neither of which is what I want.
I called the number you listed and immediately got into a loop
Appreciate the feedback – we will look into it 🤔
Why is it so difficult to reach this people from experian? this cant be a real company at all
Experian’s National Consumer Assistance Center should be renamed the National Consumer Resistance Center. A dreadful experience!
trying to remove a credit freeze. Have to have a PIN to remove which I don't have, how do I get my PIN
I keep going around in circles but cannot obtain access to a human to discuss a dispute in my report from Equifax and Experian but not from Transunion. In your letter of disclosure to an outside company, "Prime Lending" you claim a derogatory public record or collection filed. As a result your score for both Experian and Equifax are reported as 710 – whereas Transunion is 783! It is terribly important that I speak directly with an individual to explain this matter.
I believe that I froze my credit on 6/18/2020. I would like to start the freeze again on 2/16/2021.
I am trying to open an account. My bank is not listed. I use the 717 credit union in Warren Ohio. Can you please contact me and advise.
Thank you
