Hi,
Went online about a week ago & went through the process of "opening" a savings account to begin with US Bank. I received a generic secured email reply requesting docs for identification. I made PDF's of required docs, uploaded Sunday and received another email from what appeared to be a live person today advising me for the process to continue I needed to remove the freezes I have on SageStream & Innovis & alert them when this has been done. That does not seem unreasonable to me and I have nothing to hide from them.
In early 2017 I froze everything I could and opted-out etc as I had my ID stolen in late 2013 & someone apparently visited an Emergency Room & used my info??? All the knowledge I gained here was used to get try & get rid of that bill on all my reports but nothing worked. I filed a police report, gave it to EQ, TU, EX, the collection agency, the Hospital all via certified mail. A nurse friend even got me an in person meeting with the billing dept where I was able to lay everything out & seak to a person who seemed to care but it never got resolved. Eventually it fell of the 3 CRA's. Some back story.
Since the bill dropped off my reports I have opened a couple bank accounts & one credit card so I guess that was not an issue. Doubt it will be now but can anyone chime in & tell me if there is any downside to un-freezing these besides not being able to open the account with US Bank?
I briefly looked at these companies web sites earlier today & I may be able to find PIN #'s to remove the freezes. If not from what I skimmed it may be a mailing back n forth to get a new PIN. Not being lazy but wanting to do this as efficiently as possible (& being out of the Country), anyone know the way if there is one to do this without the required PIN #? The initial email from US Bank says I have 30 days or the app is removed.
Thank you everyone in advance!
