Consumer complaint received 2024-05-15 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
To whom this may concern : I am writing because I received a 30-day late reporting on my credit report due to misinformation that I received from one of your customer representatives XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. 
I called into the customer support line of XX/XX/XXXX, to inquire about why I received a {$29.00} late fee when I made my scheduled payment on XX/XX/XXXX, which is the due date. I realized I had the fee by logging into the XXXX app. I spoke with XXXX who stated on a recorded call that the fee was an error on the companys end and that he would remove the fee. Prior to calling in I had scheduled a {$300.00} payment because the app had stated that I needed to pay that amount to get my account current. I asked XXXX about that and if I needed to make that {$300.00} payment or if he had corrected the error. He stated I did not need to make that payment and that the account would update soon and therefore I asked him to cancel the {$300.00} payment since he made it clear it was not necessary. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I saw in my app that it was still reporting I had a balance, so I called in again and spoke with a representative who finally explained that what happened was I did not pay the minimum payment of {$280.00} in XXXX. I made a {$200.00} payment because I was under the impression the minimum payment was {$180.00}. She explained that I would need to make another payment of at least {$200.00} to be current. I then went into the app and scheduled the payment while on the phone with her. She let me know that would cover XXXX payment but that I would still need to make another payment before XX/XX/XXXX to cover XXXX payment. 
Had XXXX explained on XX/XX/XXXX that the reason I received the late fee was because I did not make the minimum payment, and not that it was an error on the companys end. I would have made the rest of the payment that day and/or I wouldve made the {$300.00} payment I had already scheduled. He assured me that it was not needed and subsequently canceled that payment on his end.
