Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I have been paying down my Credit Card balances, but this decrease in the card balance is not reported in a timely fashion, as opposed to ANY increase in a card balance, which seems to be updated in a matter of days. I have paid down XXXX  of dollars in Credit Card debt, but my percentage of use never changes. This is critically impacting my ability to get credit to add available credit, which would lower this percentage of use as I pay these balances down. 
This is clearly both negligence in regard to the consumer, while at the same time offering only cards with high annual fees which finically benefits the Credit Reporting agencies, besides implying that paying to upgrade to a service offered by the reporting agency would assist in increasing the consumer 's credit rating.

Company: RUSHMORE LOAN MANAGEMENT SERVICES LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022 I call Rushmore Loan to ask why my monthly mortgage payment went up when I paid the escrow shortage from the XX/XX/2022 statement they mailed me. The representative told me there was a {$3.00} escrow shortage. I asked the representative why they hadn't mailed me the notice. As I was on hold, I logged onto my web portal and found a new escrow analysis report showing this {$3.00} escrow shortage. I told them the representative that I was willing to pay any escrow shortage but I didn't want my mortgage payment to go up. The representative told me it was too late. I asked to speak to the customer service manager. I then spoke to XXXX who gave me his email address at XXXX. I told him that I called Rushmore to pay the {$630.00} shortage so my payment wouldn't go up. This payment posted on my checking account on XX/XX/2022. Therefore, when I logged into my portal to pay my XXXX mortgage payment, I was surprised to see an increase on my monthly payment. It went from {$2100.00} to {$2200.00}. How can a {$3.00} escrow shortage increase my payments to by {$38.00} each month. He then explained that Rushmore has a minimum required escrow balance. I said okay but why don't you give me a statement and give me an opportunity to pay it so I can prevent my mortgage payment from increasing? I didn't understand his explanation and in all my past experiences have been that if I pay the escrow shortage statement amount, then I don't see in increase in my mortgage payments when I have a fixed interest rate. Even the representative who took my XXXX payment of this escrow shortage told me that my payment shouldn't increase if I pay the shortage amount.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Personal information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I called XXXX, Experian and XXXX and informed each of them that information on my credit report is incorrect, specifically the spelling of my last name. In the section titled " Other names '' my last name was spelled " XXXX '' instead of the correct spelling which is " XXXX ''. Also my birth year was listed at " XXXX '' instead of " XXXX ''. I was on line looking at the report and identified the most blatant errors I am not certain if there is more. I was looking at the document online and I was unable to look at the entire document at that time. When I went back to try to pull up the information I was unable to access the credit report. Since that time I have requested all three of my credit reports and I have not received a copy of any of them at this time. I would like a complete credit report sent to my address from ALL THREE agencies so I can compare and contrast the information that is listed on all three of the reports. I need to identify all inaccurate information between each of the three reports.

One of the main problems I am having with these agencies is that is extremely difficult to get a live representative online. Every time I call I get put into a message system that forces me to select options that do not apply to my concerns. I am NEVER able to get in contact with a live representative. Another MAJOR CONCERN is that I am unable to access MY SOCIAL SECURITY account. Specifically, because " EXPERIAN " has information about me that is NOT correct, which is preventing me from accessing MY OWN social security account. This has been going on for YEARS. I have had to go to social security over 8 times to get a password RESET which did not work because the credit information associated with my account is WRONG. I have had my password RESET about 4-5 times and the problem has not been resolved.
