  4. [R10] Intuit Credit Karma 1/5 · US Not Accurate: This information is never accurate and takes far too long to update. Moreover, finance persons refuse to accept CK information as valid.
  5. [R1] Intuit Credit Karma 1/5 · US Can’t login: I’ve had the same account for a while and I’ve upgraded phone from a 13 pro to a 17 pro and even have my information saved in my passwords and the app isn’t working at all. I’ve tried logging in, changing password and recovering my email but all it says is unable to contact Credit Karma
  6. [R13] Intuit Credit Karma 1/5 · US Can’t get into my account: I have been unable to get into my account and nothing is working to resolve and there’s no real support. I keep getting messages like “We're sorry for the inconvenience. A technical issue has unexpectedly occurred. Please try again in a few moments.” This has gone on for weeks! I attempt daily, have researched extensively, and tried everything. There should be a way to g
  7. [R19] Intuit Credit Karma 1/5 · US Lu6500: I have been trying to to to open a Spending account for years since you all had this it keeps telling me me for years they can’t verify who I am , an don’t understand I have a credit card karma account with you all so why they can’t verify me for a spending account every time I check this it’s been saying they can’t verify same thing for years still not fixed!

  8. [R22] Intuit Credit Karma 1/5 · US My profile: I can not open an account with you guys and I have a nice some of money coming and I want to bank with you guys!! Can you please fix my account????
  9. [R4] Intuit Credit Karma 1/5 · US Too much: Credit Karma sends too many notifications on a daily basis. More importantly they provide misleading notifications that entice you click on the app. I received a notification that said ‘Equifax is registering an actionable item on your credit report in regard to said card’. It was complete b.s.
  10. [R27] Intuit Credit Karma 3/5 · US Notifications: They're too often.
  11. [R28] Intuit Credit Karma 1/5 · US update made app useless: the app has been rendered useless after the most recent update; the homescreen is a garbage mess. it wasn’t broken, why change anything? its also nothing but advertisements & fake notifications
  12. [R46] Intuit Credit Karma 1/5 · US Infinite notifications: I think the guy who invented the pop up ad became intuit’s CTO or something. I get about 50 (not kidding) push notifications per day. Want to be reminded every 12 minutes that you can open a credit card? Have you forgotten that you could take out a loan? Download this app and you’ll never miss another chance to take advantage of outrageously obnoxious offers.
  13. [R15] Intuit Credit Karma 3/5 · US Incorrect information: You really need to look in to a person‘s credit before you start posting a credit score. You’re very slow on gathering information. I have stuff on my credit report that should no longer be on my credit report after eight years of being there.
  14. [R18] Intuit Credit Karma 3/5 · US Accuracy: CK claims if payments are made timely this will affect a FICO, yet the suggested payments are made but this does not change an account. In addition, it takes a long time for CK to accurately report any new accounts.
  15. [R30] Intuit Credit Karma 3/5 · US Ginger: Love the advice, love how you track and let me know what is going on. No way to contact you guys
  16. [R31] Intuit Credit Karma 2/5 · US Lack of Follow Through from Customer Support: Decent app. I had issues connecting accounts. Contacted support for help and was largely ghosted. One issue took forever to resolved but eventually was. The other issue never was resolved despite numerous attempts on my end contacting support.
  17. [R29] Intuit Credit Karma 5/5 · US Wonderful app: My experience with this app is so informative and helpful with tips and advice on how to manage and improve my credit score. So grateful for Credit Karma! I highly recommend this app!
  18. [R61] Credit One Bank Mobile 1/5 · US Ripoff central: These lowlifes will nickel and dime you to death, then lie about it
  19. [R12] Intuit Credit Karma 3/5 · US Good Education Tool: I’ve used CK for years it’s a good tool if you have no clue how to manage your credit. I think it’s incredibly misleading though and should have a pathway or “real score” option to check scores that actually have an impact on your life.
  20. [R64] Credit One Bank Mobile 1/5 · US Scam credit card: They steal your money right out the gate, these guys suck
  21. [R67] Credit One Bank Mobile 1/5 · US Porque el cobro: Porque me están cobrando de algo que no he utilizado ni siquiera la había activado
  22. [R70] Credit One Bank Mobile 1/5 · US Trash Company: Will immediately charge you late fee while taking days to proceed a payments. Cause you to go over limit then charge a fee. Will spam call you daily. Will dive bomb you credit score faster than anyone. Express payment is $8 fee and it takes same speed as normal payment.
