Company: Chime Financial Inc
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
Chime is refusing to unblock my account and has been for the past two months. I had tried to transfer money to another bank account but it was sent back due to my clearview bank transactions being blocked. Because of this chime blocked my account and refuses to unblock it even when I show them the proof that they ask for. Each time I show the proof they send me another email with completely different details needing to be met. And when I still show the documentation they just repeat the email with different qualifications refusing to give me access to my money. This has been a hugely incredible hindrance to my life and has affected the children I provide for.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Re : Experian Credit File for XXXX XXXX XXXX I paid off a car loan from XXXX on XXXX XX/XX/2023. When the loan was paid in full, Experian decreased my FICO score by XXXX pts. This decrease also changed my FICO score from " Very Good '' to " Good ''. My XXXX and XXXX accounts both increased when this account was paid in full. From that point and currently, my Experian FICO score is XXXX pts below the two other credit reporting services. 

It appears this was a mistake in either reporting or calculation of my credit score and/or the application to my FICO score when a loan was paid in full, and/or how the " paid in full '' loan was reported or applied to my Experian FICO score. 

There is a large difference in a Good vs. Very Good credit score. I assume the algorithms are similar and should not have this much difference. I would appreciate if someone could review this transaction and results and application to my FICO score.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I went on the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX website on XX/XX/23 and was able to receive reports from XXXX and XXXX, but was unable to obtain one from TransUnion. The prompt that I received said that I had already received the report, which I had not. 

It has been nothing but a nightmare ever since to try to get the TransUnion report. All they do is send me emails for me to sign up at a monthly cost to receive my report. I went through their website and made about 5 calls to get the report, but have not received it. 

They told me to go to service.transunion.com to get my report. I signed up for the website and was still unable to obtain the report. I called again on XX/XX/23 and was given the runaround again and still unable to obtain the report. While they kept me on hold for a long time all they kept asking me was if I was interested in paying for the monthly monitoring service. Every time I indicated NO, they kept asking me again and again if I want the paid monitoring service. 

I believe that they are purposely withholding the credit report that I am entitled to in order to force me to pay for my report as well as a monthly monitoring service that I don't want. 

All I want is my credit report from TransUnion.
