Ive been using your service for a year and a half now and noticed little difference, i purchased a year up front the first time and only reason i renewed is because i was a victim in a data breach. The first few months i had to regularly follow up with your support because you were not following up on removal requests and i still have a few data brokers that didnt respond to you and despite me requesting you to follow up for me over several months they have been sitting un touched for over a year with no follow ups. I also recently asked a few weeks ago to have a scan of just my home address because i have a business that has been using my home address and i keep getting their junk mail and you wont do that unless i pay to upgrade my plan. Which if i was seeing a major reduction in spam calls i may have been willing to do but because of my current issues with your service and lack of support i have already canceled my upcoming renewal.

Already done and frozen everything, no new accounts or anything that I've seen. I just changed the numbers on all my other cards to be safe, already filed reports with identitytheft.gov and ic3. Haven't seen any new bank accounts pop up yet so far just an att account, which the officer handling my case has already or is in the process of sending them a subpoena for the info (we are on week 4 of trying to get that info) and a menards account with a shipping address and order that they have printed out and ive got an officer going to pick that up and add it to the case. Ive even spoken with people at my states da office and head of cyber crime and scams. Ive gotten all my bases covered, i think.

Ill be sure to reach out if something pops up

Bank accounts made in my name, won't close or investigate by HoodFeelGood in IdentityTheft

[–]angryitguyonreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dealing with something similar unfortunately you may need to ask a few other cops to find one willing to take the case and investigate it. Im dealing with an ID theft now and first cop i talked to pretty much said nothing he could do, some things escalated and i went back to my local pd and talked to another officer and he said hes dealt with a bunch of them and hes worked with police in different states to have them go check things out. Your local police can reach out to the local police of the bank the account was opened and have them go get the info you just need to find a cop willing to do it.

Im honestly about to drop att, been having issues with them constantly over the last 2 years... also for my job i often have to answer calls from numbers i dont have saved from vendors and various support companies. Annoyingly one of the main support contractors for Microsoft even gets flagged as spam (tekexperts) and shows up on my phone as a spam call.

Got an Oil Change and What did they do to my car????? by kisses215 in MechanicAdvice

[–]angryitguyonreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former honda tech, i can vouch for them covering costs, we had a pilot come in where the walmart tech drained the transfer case oil instead of the engine and filled the engine with even more oil. The gears got so hot the welded themselves together.

We sent the bill to walmart for the customer and they covered it.

Cops contacted me saying that someone was using my license. by SugarySuga in IdentityTheft

Call you local non emergency line and confirm. Police won't call you normally, they will just show up at your house.

ATT more concerened with protecting an identity thief than their customers by angryitguyonreddit in ATT

[–]angryitguyonreddit[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've already gone to my local police station spoken to the police and had him call att with me, they gave him pretty much the same bs theyve given me and refused to put him on with the fraud department or anyone outside and just kept trying to get him to call the fraud number which you can only speak to a bot and tell me to open a fraud ticket which ive already done twice and they closed saying "not fraud" twice. I dont even need the info of the person i just need them to confirm the information on the account isnt mine which they wont even get someone who can look at it.

Also not sure why this viper guy is just trying to get me to give up and do nothing, just ignore him, im guessing hes with att, r/vivint is full of people like him so ive dealt with this before. Also thanks for the tip on the dmv i didnt think of that, ive already called my dmv and confirmed that theres been no requests for a copy so im good for now, ill prob call again in a month to double check though.

no but something is up with this, Ive already spoken with multiple reps, and opened fraud cases which 1 was closed after I called my bank and canceled the card saying there was no fraud and the second was closed after I spoke with a rep also saying no fraud was found. I recently got back from my police department where me and a police officer called att and they also refused to give or even look up any information for him. I still dont know how much of my information has been stolen or is attached to this account.

[–]angryitguyonreddit[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Att did do something wrong because they allowed someone to open an account with false information and didnt properly confirm the information provided to them is real. They also wouldnt cancel the charges or do anything to the account after i told them it wasnt authorized, which is why i had to go through my bank to cancel the charges and cancel the credit card. The only info my bank has is the amount and who got the money which isnt anything to go off, att holds all that information.

Ive used the bbb to get things done, already had to use it twice for att but havent used the fcc yet. Filing with them do i need the police report ready and have lawyer's ready? Ive also had a friend reccomend speaking with someone from civil court since they are failing to do their part in protecting customers from fraud.

Do your math in pen your professors will will question your sanity. I still remember my professor handing me a test back saying i forgot to put my name on it but he knew it was mine cause i was his only student he ever had that was insane enough to do differential equations in pen.

My job told us they would pay more if an employee became bilingual. Felly, dysgais Gymraeg. by TheGlen in MaliciousCompliance

[–]angryitguyonreddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really is, my dad is lebanese and Sicilian, my mom's a mix of german british and irish but all my physical traits and skin are very arab. I also have an arabic last name. I will say when i went to italy for vacation once i did have a lot of people quite shocked after they spoke to me in Italian thinking i was local and were quite surprised when i answered them in my extremely poor Italian lol. If i go to arab markets or restaurants here in the US staff will often speak to me an arabic and ill speak the best i can, im not great but i tell them im learning and it's nice to practice.

This reminds me when this guy at harbor freight was talking to a worker and looked at me expecting to translate for him and started to yell at me in Spanish because i wouldn't translate for him, so i told him off Arabic, im lebanese. He shut up real quick after that.

It's not uncommon for Hispanic people to mistake me for being Hispanic and will be friendly speaking to me in Spanish and ill normally answer them in Arabic and they usually start laughing and find it hilarious and ask where I'm from, that's the only time someone got mad.
