These accounts aren’t for the people who pay Experian money. Companies pay Experian money to access information about individuals; the only reason Experian even allows accounts for individuals is because they are mandated by law to allow things like credit freezes and the annual credit report. If they weren’t required, they wouldn’t do it at all. They have zero incentive to improve the experience or the security of it.
