Credit Karma - Trying log back in on account /update phone number

Unresolved due to the issue I'm having trying to log in to my account, which I had installed on my phone. I'm trying to get access to my account like I had before, so it shows me where I'm standing in credit or whatever I can have access to when needed. If I need to have access too, thanks.

Preferred solution: Just to show me my rates and where I stand at in my chart like it was before

Credit Karma - My credit report with Trans Union is 645

Y'all keep reporting the wrong credit score. My credit score is 645, so every time I try to get a credit card, it keeps denying me.

Every time I try to get a loan, it keeps denying me. Why do y'all keep reporting a low credit score when I just sent you the show of TransUnion 645? Y'all keep reporting 465. I'm not sure what's going on with credit.

Credit Karma - I am filing a complaint regarding...
Updated by user Apr 02, 2026

my experience with Credit Karma, which has been extremely frustrating, distressing, and unacceptable. Despite clear evidence and written confirmation from the merchant, Google, that the transactions made on my account were unauthorized and fraudulent, Credit Karma has repeatedly denied my disputes and refused to return the funds that were wrongfully taken from me.This situation has caused not only financial hardship but also emotional distress.

As a single mother, I rely on the security of my account to provide for my children. Having nearly $3,873.41 taken due to fraud—and then being denied reimbursement despite proof—has placed me in an incredibly difficult position. It has been both embarrassing and humiliating to face the consequences of this situation, including struggling to meet basic needs like food for my family.What is most concerning is that Credit Karma has been provided with verified documentation from the merchant confirming that these charges were fraudulent, yet they continue to disregard this evidence. This reflects a failure to properly investigate my claim and uphold their responsibility to protect customers from unauthorized transactions.I feel mistreated, ignored, and unsupported throughout this entire process.

I have done everything asked of me—submitted disputes, provided documentation, and followed all procedures—yet my concerns have not been taken seriously.At this point, I am requesting immediate resolution.

Credit Karma owes me the full amount of $3,873.41, as these charges have been confirmed as fraudulent. I expect this matter to be corrected promptly, along with a proper review of how my case was handled to prevent this from happening to others.This experience has severely impacted my trust in Credit Karma, and I urge the company to take accountability and make this right.

Original review Apr 02, 2026
I am filing a complaint regarding unauthorized transactions on my Credit Karma Money account totaling $3,873.41. On March 4, 2026, multiple unauthorized transactions were made to Google Ads.

I reported this fraud immediately. The merchant, Google, conducted its own independent investigation and confirmed in writing that these charges were not initiated by me. Their documentation lists each fraudulent transaction and confirms unauthorized use. I submitted this documentation to Credit Karma as part of my dispute.

Credit *** denied my claim immediately after receiving this evidence, stating only that the transactions were approved, without addressing or acknowledging the merchant's confirmed fraud findings. This demonstrates a failure to conduct a reasonable investigation.

Under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA), I am not liable for unauthorized transactions, and financial institutions are required to properly investigate claims. I am requesting: immediate reimbursement of $3,873.41, a proper investigation that includes review of the merchant's fraud confirmation, and a written explanation of how my claim was denied despite clear evidence.

Credit Karma - Identity theft,money stolen, information fraud scam

My password, my email got hacked. My identity got used for credit that I don't even know that I had.

The person even used my credit to pay off stuff that I don't even know what's going on. You got to be someone that is very close to me that knows my information very well because I didn't have.
