“They cheat”

Lisa H.
6/20/24

My credit score is getting better and better but Experian reports my ratings going down as I move from one category to a lesser category. When I check it out they want money so I can dig deeper into what I'm sure are false reports. You guys are scaring people just so you can get more business from them. Merica the great.

They give the lowest numbers and their customer service is the absolute worst. Since their data breach it's gotten worse

Do not answer the concerns raised.
Staff refuse to escalate issues to the senior management to cover up their inaccurate and unprofessional conduct

Tip for consumers:
Company thinks it is unaccountable. Staff unprofessional and disingenuous.

Where do I begin? I was looking to review my credit scores before I purchased a home. Honestly, I was trying to understand my numbers before sitting down with a lender. I looked at my bank account, and I noticed that I was charged an initial few for joining to review my three credit scores. However, I saw I was charged an additional 32 bucks each time I came back to check the accounts for clarity. I then contacted customer service, which took 30-40 minutes because the automated system refused to transfer me to an actual person. As a result of my persistence with the process, I got through. The first customer service representative said that she would take care of the situation, and while I was trying to get clarity on why this takes place, the rep hung up the phone on me. Really. I then start over with the automated server trying to get through to a live person. I finally contacted, and the second person told me that I could not get a refund for the charges. I then asked if I could speak to his supervisor, and he informed me that my supervisor was not available on the weekends. I then say so; you are telling me that you all are running a multimillion-dollar business with no one in a position of authority for me to speak with on the weekend. I then asked the customer service rep for his ID number, to which he replied I could not give you my number. Needless the say, I canceled the account, and I am out of nearly 100 bucks with no one to resolve my problem. This company should be ashamed of these business practices. Experian is deceiving customers, not to mention they are not willing to work with customers to solve problems.

This company should be investigated for fraud. Highly bizarre and unprofessional.
No comparison to other credit bureaus.

Tip for consumers:
Stay away! Use the other two main ones.
