Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: UPGRADE, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/2023, I paid off this loan in full. By XXXX, my credit report was still showing the full balance owed in XXXX. I submitted a complaint and the the balance was removed during investigation. 

Despite the account being paid in full, and having a {$0.00} balance, {$2900.00} was added to my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX, which dropped my XXXX XXXX XXXX points. This fake balance due was reported after the account has had a {$0.00} balance for over 3 months. 

Upgrade will intentionally and maliciously drive down a user 's credit score in order to force them to use their line of credit - which they doubled the APR on for new loans *after* I agreed to the terms of the line of credit. The new APR is currently 10 % higher than credit cards, making the personal line of credit completely useless for me, and making the impact to my credit report even worse.
