Experian is a republican corporation. They are deliberately not verifying identities

in order to further slow down ACA Marketplace applicant's ability to purchase insurance.

who actively trade its stock on the London Stock Exchange is going to openly break the law in the most publicly accessible operation of its kind.

Fortunately for me they verified me in a New York Second.

Understand you might be having some problems, keep trying and if you talk with people leave the attitude out of it.

BTW they are not 'outsourcing' verification services to Experian but using their service to clarify data when there are ambiguous results, the verification responsibility is still with the ACA

we fault the right for nonsense and yet we have a post like this that suggests the Experian is part of a right-wing conspiracy with absolutely no proof of the same.

I thought we were the ones that believed in facts and evidence to support our claims.

If we go about slamming anyone and everyone because they are "Republican" or "Conservative" agents we do not progress our interests.

With all due respect to the original poster.....I am not suggesting your point does not have some POTENTIAL merit but that merit is conditioned on facts.

Experian may be very conservative but as grant cart points out...they are publicly traded and subject to the interest of maximizing profits. I would suspect that the contract with the U.S. government may involve a level of transparency and possibly even a bonus for positive outcomes.

Let's not reduce ourselves to the level of our adversaries on the right. Let's be fact-based and logical.
