Thanks for the follow-up. It might help some people, and I found it interesting and insightful.
No problem.
I just hope that no one else has to go through all of the trouble that I did. It was also really hard to find any information on how to get this fixed. The support mainly told me that is was impossible.
The most important detail that I've noticed was that
TransUnion credit information seems to be the credit agency that they verify your identity with. So hopefully using that information, people will be able to get their identity verified in less time.
