The company is screwing my financial life up with their mistakes
plan to file a serious complaint
Don’t bother with that number, they don’t take calls
Michelle Pugh says
I joined credit Karma back in February of 2017 to get my credit straight, instead my credit has taken a turn for the worst and to make matters worst, it’s impossible to get customer service to return my call. They were suppose to give me six free months and failed to do so, but I didn’t expect anything more because their entire performance has been poor. They have taken approximately $1000.00 in payments from my account, but after trying to contact someone and not having someone contact me back, I blocked them from taking monies from my account. I do intend to contact the Better Business Bureau because this company has to be a fraud. We need a class action suit against this company.

Please stop airing your creepy clown with knife commercial. It’s very disturbing and frightening(especially to my 8year old daughter who unexpectedly saw it while watching a family movie). She asked me if that was the same creepy clown that was terrorizing people in neighborhoods and parks. Really??? You feel it necessary to have a commercial with a clown and butcher knife hiding in dark of a house?? That’s the best Credit Karma could come up with for a commercial? Now my daughter is afraid to go into another room by herself (especially the kitchen) because she is afraid a creepy clown with knife is waiting for her! Nice job Credit Karma.

The people who create and approve your commercials should be more mindful to who their audience is. It’s not just adults with poor credit!

HARRY HILL says
I used Credit Karma Tax to do my 2016 Taxes. Reaching the step to verify my email address. Over a dozen attempts I still was unable to verify.
I contacted Credit Karma Tax Support. Response came from ‘Britney’; stating check my spam folder. Like I am that stupid to NOT check the SPAM folder! I relatedly attempted to get a follow-up from Britney or anyone else at Credit Karma Tax! No response! It must be PRESUMED…… all contact support people went home for the day! On the day before TAX DEADLINE!
Credit Karma is operating an UNPROFESSIONAL Tax Filing Site!
I am FILING a COMPLAINT WITH THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU………. FILING A COMPLAINT WITH THE IRS! I AM CONTACTING THE MEDIA WITH THIS STORY, BE READY FOR EXPOSURE FOR RUNNING A FRAUDULENT OPERATION.
I THINK YOUR COMPETITION MAY BE INTERESTED IN HEARING OF YOUR INCOMPETENCE!

linda cole says
I worked at Panera Bread but quit because of various reasons with management. I had gone in and mad an account so I could order at Panera Bread in Ankeny Iowa.
They stopped me from having an account so that I could place orders at the store. I had to put my husbands name and information so we could get points and order so that our orders would be ready.
I have never been treated so bad in my life, and to top it off I never even got my pay check from the time I was there.
Panera bread is concerned about themselves at all and how much money franchises make.
John Gammell says
I have a huge problem with my credit score’s! 5 year’s ago I hired a company named Lexington law to fix my credit for a year. I payed them alot of money to dispute and fix my credit. Then I got on Credit Karma to monitor and fix my own credit, since then I’ve payed off hospital bills thru North America credit, payed off other collection agencies on my credit and desputed things that where on my credit that I found out was put on there by identity theft. I have bought a car in the last 8 months I have opened a credit card thru my bank and I have opened one more credit card for a big chain store. Since then it has been a year with timely payments and have not missed one payment. My credit I noticed went up a few points and then went back down!!! Could someone at credit karma please get ahold of me and help me understand why I’ve put so much of my time and money into fixing my credit for it to stay the same or go down instead of up?
Terry says
I have paid a crediter off and still my credit score is still the same for transunion how do I go about getting it changed thank you…

I think it is absurd that someone can fraudulently get all of someone’s personal information with a click of a button!
I have been married, at the same company, and residence for over 25 years. It should be easy to verify my identity. Someone gets my SS#, logs into your site and boom, has instant access to verify any challenging question that other company put into place to verify it is really me!! I am shocked that your company isn’t sued over such irresponsible transactions. You should be!!!!
