I tried to sign up for the XXXX bureau credit monitoring system offered through XXXX website. However, I was unable to complete the transaction due to a block ( notice ) on my Experian report. The notice reads " The issue date of the Social Security number that you gave us when you contacted us is not verified by the Social Security XXXX ''. When I contacted Experian to fix the issue, they told me nothing could be done. My SSN was issued XX/XX/XXXX. Since XX/XX/XXXX, the Social Security XXXX changed the way they issued SSN to increase security and consumer protection. As such, many companies, including Experian, can no longer validate my SSN. I can not understand why I am being penalized and denied service because a safety featured implemented by SSA. I would like to request that Experian remove this notice from my credit report.
