Consumer Narrative

XX/XX/22 I informed all three bureaus to remove my fraud alert by mail and I enclosed all proof of identity documents. They still haven't removed the fraud alert. I've also called the various bureaus multiple times to have this removed over past 2 months and no bureau removed it. I didn't even ask for a fraud alert. They just need to remove it. I already sent my ID, SS card, and proof of address to them a week ago.
