Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I have been working diligently on my credit health in order to be able to enjoy my life more and take more pride in my personal finances. I was never taught the importance in having good credit, and I'm hoping to learn enough and pass it onto my XXXX young adult sons and daughter, who's just beginning their credit journey. 
I had worked on my credit reports and scores, I had my FICO scores in the high XXXX 's and my XXXX scores in the low XXXX 's. Last XX/XX/XXXX, TransUnion dropped my score XXXX points, then XXXX nor XXXX decreased not even half or a third of what Transunion drops. In XXXX, I called TransUnion and asked to speak to a manager and ask why did my score dropped so much. She looked at my report, and said that XXXX XXXX looks like a new account was opened. I looked, I said no, I have XXXX auto loan through XXXX XXXX. I researched it, and XXXX XXXX changed their format of the account number, nothing more. And I WAS PUNISHED FOR SOMETHING THAT WASN'T MY DOING!. It took several months before Transunion was aligned more fairly with XXXX and XXXX. It happened again more recently. Transunion dropped me XXXX points on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, when XXXX decreased me XXXX points XX/XX/XXXX. Because my credit utilization went over 50 % on XXXX or XXXX credit cards, I'd been keeping them below 30 %. I was financially strapped, I'd had XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and my workroom was affected. I had to buy gas and groceries with a few credit cards since I had no available cash. Now it's XX/XX/XXXX and my utilization is lower than it was before, and I've had increases in my credit limits, and my Transunion score remains XXXX. Something is going horribly wrong with that privately owned business that it appears that they drop you a XXXX points overnight but when you rectify it, TransUnion lets the increase creep up. Because of TransUnion, I wasn't about to get XXXX XXXX in order to have my senior sheltie taken care of. I couldn't afford what he needed. I don't care what anyone else says ... Transunion especially is NOT for the consumers rights and investigates fairly. I read so many complaints against all credit bureaus, but especially Transunion. Having my scores drop so suddenly and without a real explanation... I feel like an utter failure in my life. This is how important it is to me to be able to have my finances at a point where my XXXX kids won't be depleted when I XXXX.
