Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Credit monitoring or identity theft protection services
Sub-issue: Billing dispute for services

Complaint:
My wife and just created Transunion accounts in order to check out credit score. While signing up, the site does not once mention a subscription or service fee, though they do ask for a credit card at the end of the sign up form. We figured it was to have in case we did decide to purchase a more advanced version of the credit monitoring service and we just wanted to check our credit score, figuring it was free since there was no mention of payment. 
I double-checked the entire page before I clicked submit at the end of the account creation/sign up form on transunion.com and there was no statement that said I was agreeing to purchase anything at that time nor was there any price shown. Again, I figured it was a free basic credit score account like you can get with a ton of other credit monitoring services, so I signed up and so did my wife. We each then recieved an email saying we were charge {$25.00} for a monthly subscription. 
This is absolutely underhanded and intentional deception by this credit monitoring company to dupe people into thinking they are signing up for a basic, free account. How can they charge a credit card without stating they are doing so and without giving a price during the sign up process? 
They have no way of contacting them outside of normal business hours and I need to cancel this now. This could cause a real issue, as I did not expect {$25.00} to be billed to me ... This could cause interest on purchases that I was not willing to accept or an account balance fee. There is absolutely no way that this method of signing up is not an intentional trick to force people to pay for something they didn't know they were going to pay for. 
On top of that, they have a place on the site where you can request to cancel your service. I did it as soon as I realized they charged me without my consent.. within minutes of signing up. They do not offer a refund and just say that they have cancelled my account.

Company: Lending Club Corp
State: GA
Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Problem with additional add-on products or services

Complaint:
I have a loan with Lending Club and have done business with them for years. I just purchased a home, and called to defer my payment to the XXXX of the month ( XXXX ) ; instead of the regular payment XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX, they took the payment out of my Account even though I set up the deferment. I called XX/XX/XXXX, the date the funds were taken out, and inquired why they took the funds out, and they indicated it was an error. The rep promised it would be put back in 2-4 business days, and to keep checking my account. Everyday since, I have checked my account and I have called for the funds to be returned and each rep give a different answer ; one stated it takes up to seven days. Today the rep stated it was just initiated today and it too should take up to 2- 4 more days. The fact, they keep being untruthful about returning the funds to my account is really perturbing. It has been a big inconvenience, because I set-up my business according to the arrangement I made with the Lending Club. I tried to speak with a supervisor, I am kept on hold for a very very long time - over 30 minutes, I finally hung up. There is no one to escalate issues to, as the corporate also provide the same number. I just wanted my money back into my account and for them to honor the agreement. This is truly a bad experience.
