Credit monitoring or identity protection Problem with fraud alerts Virginia

I have been trying to get a freeze on my report lifted from Equifax for 3 weeks, I had no problem getting the lifted with the other - agencies. Equifax has refused to let me lift it online where I placed the freeze, they have given me the run around when I call, telling me to call back in 1 hr because they ca n't help me because they are doing a system update, when I call back later they tell me the same thing - they are having a system update and can not help me. I am so frustrated I want to scream. They have also refused to give me my free annual credit report. They have caused me significant distress and problems as I have been unable to obtain utility services for my - residence because of their refusal to lift the freeze. Please help.
