Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: PA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: Store credit card
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Problem with personal statement of dispute

Complaint:
I have never been late paying my Barclays credit card. I submitted all payments on Barclays website by the due date. Barclays didn't post my payment to my account for over 30 days. I have disputes this in the past and have gotten nowhere with them. If you make payments by the due date you should expect the credit card company to make the appropriate changes to you account in a timely fashion. This has hurt my credit score through absolutely no fault of my own. I have spoken to my attorney about this matter and he advised me to file one last dispute before taking more aggressive actions. Had I known that making payments on time with Barclays was going to hurt my credit instead of helping it I would never have applied for their card.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
Experian is reporting my credit score at 60 points LOWER than XXXX  AND XXXX! Why such a drastic difference? Why are credit bureaus score differently? 

I have been working very hard to repair and rebuild my credit after being unemployed for six months during the covid19 outbreak. Experian is not correctly reflecting my score compared to the others. 

This is not fair that you never know where you stand with your credit! You never know what credit report will be pulled for things like renting an apartment or purchasing an asset and you never know what your score will be? How is this fair? Just because you have a credit monitoring app doesn't mean the score will be the same when a creditor or landlord pulls a report. Again, how is this fair? 

There is no education available as to how each credit bureau calculates your score. Everything is so mysterious! What about transparency, and fair credit practices? There should only be 1, ONE, credit bureau, with actual published, scoring practices so that people can track their own score intelligently, without suprises! 

Experian is preventing me from getting an apartment, unless I pay extra in up front rent and security deposits! This is discriminatory practices and I request and demand an investigation of the credit bureau 's practices, and to why there are 3 credit bureaus with different scoring practices!
