Updated by user Mar 30, 2024

Still fighting to clear my name and get my scores back up.

Original review Mar 15, 2024

I have spoken to Credit Karma , TransUnion, Equifax-credit, & Experian several times since 1-30-2024 about a disputed charge on all my accounts. Southern New Hampshire University claims I owe them $960.00.

Which I know of no charges and had lost my SS card in June of 2022. I placed a freeze on all accounts and contacted SS to receive a new card. Since then I've been contacted several times by banks. Credit cards, Finiance companies & others where someone has tried to us my SS# to get loans.

So far I've been able to resolve those issues, but Credit Karma, TransUnion, Equifax-credit, & Experian all have failed to advise me of the results of the investigation with Southern New Hampshire University for the $960.00 dispute. I was on the phone nearly 2 hours with Crefit Karma on this last Wensday with them unable to correctly get me signed in due to the representative not understanding English. I was asked 3 or more times for my email address, 3 or more times phone #, I was never asked for my address or a security question. I gave my SS# several times, again asking more than once.

Got to the point after 1 hour and a half, I asked to speak to a supervisor which also wast Hispanic and barely could understand me or me him. I believe he said I would receive an email in 24 hours and we stopped there. Last night again I contacted Transunion to speak to a person, I was hung up on and sent a link to start talking to AI and we were never able to reset a password, I was never sent a temporary code, I started chatting with a representative that run me around for over an hour. Till I ask to speak to a representative again, according to Hanah whom I was speaking with a supervisor joined in on the conversation.

After sending over 10 links I was never able to sign up, sign in, our get them to tell me the results of the completed dispute. This went on for another 30 mins. Claiming I had no account with them, yet receiving emails saying the dispute had been resolved and to log in to view the results. Never was able to log in, or never was able to open a new account.

At one time I was told I didn't have an account, but kept receiving emails from TransUnion and one saying the dispute was resolved, but unable to view the results.

I have exhausted all my avenues trying to clear my name and regain my credit scores all over 800. Picture attached is one day contacting the bureaus, CFPB and not showing my call logs and time spent on my phone trying to get help..

User's recommendation: Get help from the Consumer Protection Agency or an attorney if your identity is stolen like mine

I got a new cellphone and my credit karma account didn't down on my new phone so I couldn't get into my account. I had to do a new username.

Preferred solution: My credit score

User's recommendation: Highly recommend

Credit Bureau reported fraudulent info on my report

AI Highlights
  • - Credit Tech reported derogatory info to my credit reports.
  • - The creditor backs the debt; I paid directly.
  • - I am seeking legal action to restore my credit.

A collection agency intentionally reported derogatory info to my credit reports and completely ruined my rating. I have the backing of the creditor I owe the money to.

I need to know what legal action I can take to restore my credit rating.

The collection agency is Credit Tech. WhenI informed them that I would and was making regular payments to the creditor they actually called to verify and agreed that I was making such payments but still wanted me to make payments through them instead of the creditor.

I declined and still continued to make regular payments to the creditor. Because the collection agency was not getting their commission,they decided to punish me even though I was making the payments directly to the creditor.

If the creditor contracted with the collection agency and you are paying the creditor, they should be paying the agency. They are likely violating the contract by accepting payment from you directly./

:( I too am having issues with the credit bureaus. Their arrogance is unacceptable, they have NO CUSTOMER SERVCE, just CUSTOMER ABUSE!

Last year I had to freeze my reporting from all 3 agencies due to identity theft.

So, now I'm trying to unfreeze Equifax, so that I can purchase a cell phone. When I go to do this, I get a screen that states that more information is needed.... but doesn't tell me what information is needed. I called their member's only line, and only after multiple calls, did I get someone who was somewhat sympathetic to my plight, and finally told me that my Date of Birth was missing.

I sure would have been nice if they would have told me that this information was missing when I first placed the freeze on my account, and how to go about correcting the problem, instead of waiting till I now need to unfreeze the report, and can't because of their stupidity. I have been battling this for over 10 days now, Equifax told me where and what to fax to them, in order to get the problem corrected. 5 days later, I receive an email from them stating that they cannot update my records, that I have to go through one of their affiliates, CSC CREDIT SERVICES, to get the record corrected... Now, I'm back to square one, can't reach a live human at all for help...

this entire credit reporting verges on a scam...... As of this morning, I still have not heard back from CSC Credit Services, I did receive an email last evening from Equifax, saying that if I wanted to unfreezy my account, that I had to supply a letter to them in writing, stating what I wanted..... Come on JERKS !!!....

you set up a web site just for this, I need it unfrozen now, not 2 weeks from now... the way is is, I've lost out on saving $50 because of the inflexibility of these idiots.

Experian and the others hold a heavy hammer over us. Anyone can file a bad report on you and the credit reporting company's don't even verify any information. Better yet they can make derogatory comments as to whether they think you will pay your bills. That is enough to reject a loan, or increase your intrest rate, or even cost you a job.

Then they want to sell you their service after they put false information in the report they send out.

1st off there should not be any info entered with out notifing the person first.

2nd the comments from Experian are liable, slanderous, and defamation of character.

If there is anyone out there looking for a bench mark law suit lets talk. If Experian is reading this then maybe you should be more responsible before trying to ruin people financially.

Stick to reporting the facts.

I have endured great hardship to pay creditors and would like that reflected on my credit reports.

Reported me because of .03 cents due

AI Highlights
  • - 30 days late on a credit card; due was .03.
  • - Late payment reported to the Credit Bureau.
  • - Cannot be removed; reporting is required, harms credit.

1. I was 30 days late on my credit card payment.

2. The amount due was .03 cents.

3. This late payment was reported to the Credit Bureau

4. The Customer Service could not escalate me as her manager was out sick, but thought she would be in either next Thursday or Friday! Guess one can approximate when one is going to get better!

5. The Customer Service Rep said that they are legally obligated to report late payments, no matter what the late payment amount is.

6. The Customer Service Rep said that they cannot legally remove this from my credit report.

Damage Resulting = This has adversely affected my credit score. Of course this will affect me economically as banks are being very strict on bank loans for consumers now -which is good.
