Well I'm baffled

OpenSky denied me because they said they couldn't validate my ssn. I sent them a copy of my card twice. How can you not verify that? I am just super frustrated right now. Super duper mega uber frustrated. Okay. Rant over I guess 😡😡😡

Are you sure there were no errors made when you entered info during app, such as transposed numbers, letters, name? 

 

It's not that they cant verify you SS number ( there is special form for that), it's probably that info provided does not match the SS given.

 

I had something similar happen, actually it was ridiculous, I transposed first and last name. Synch was still able to do a HP and issue a card. I noticed the issue once I had card in hand. 

I had to send a copy of SS card and wait for them to fix and update 

 

Maybe go over your reports and make sure everything is correct, just in case there is some wrong info there

Change of name recently??  That would cause that to happen also.

I haven't had a name change, and as far as I know I entered everything on the application correctly. I sent in the docs requested to verify my identity but my ssn is the only thing they had an issue with. 🤷

I am hoping to be moving into my own place ( currently staying with son while I sell my house etc) by the end of next month if all goes well, so I may wait and reapply then.

A while ago you wrote about your ex husband using your info to apply for credit.

 

That could easily make someone wary about taking you on as a customer if they're not sure if they're getting you and not him.
