Clearwire Fraud Activity – User Submission by Nika S.

Clearwire Corporation has continued to give me the run around since January 2010. The representative from this company pulled my credit knowing the person who was trying to obtain credit wasn’t me. After further investigation and speaking with the activation department, I was told this is a common practice among their team. This incident has lowered not only lowered my credit score, but has caused me to loose my earnest money I put down for my home. I am out $10,000 because I defaulted on my contract to purchase! I am a military veteran, and I cannot use my VA loan because of Clearwire. I have worked hard to get my family in the position to be able to purchase a home, but now we are unable too. Clearwire representatives continue to transfer from person to person and ignore my letters. I feel this incident was malicious and intentional, especially since the representative knew the person on the phone was not me. I was told by one representative that the person tried to establish an account twice, before they gave them my name and date of birth. The representative and the person obtaining service knew exactly what they were doing. Their activation department says they receive complaints of this nature all the time, and they would rectify it immediately. This was three months ago. This company doesn’t have good business practices and I hope someone will put a stop to them soon.
