    Good afternoon,

     

    Thrivent Financial is in receipt of your notification of a complaint filed by a consumer named *************************.  We are unable to locate this client in our records using the information he provided in his complaint.  As he did not provide a contract number, customer identification number, or an e-mail address, we could only search by his name, address, and phone number, none of which produced any matches in our customer database. Therefore, we cannot review or respond to this matter without more specific information.

     

    Thank you.

    This company stopped taking out the direct withdrawal for my 82 year old grandmother life insurance out of her account of $369.00 without her knowledge starting in April. In July she was contacted that her policy would be cancelled if she did not pay the back pay, which she did that day. 8 days later they took out the normal $369.00, while sending her a letter telling her that starting August 17th her rate will now be $440.00. On August 21st they took out $480.00. They have also lowered her payout amount by $9,000. This is putting my grandmother who is on fixed income in a very stressful and tight spot all without her understanding about why these changes are all happening when she has been with the company since ****. The rate of $369.00 was budgeted into her living situation and needs to stay the same.
