Arro reported the wrong credit limit

Several Arro reviewers say their credit reports showed a credit limit far above the real one, in one case $11,000 against a real limit of $115. If your Arro account is reported wrongly, get your free credit reports, dispute the error in writing with Arro and with each bureau that shows it, and keep copies of everything.

Why a wrong limit matters

A limit reported too high can make your utilization look better than it is, which sounds harmless until a lender relies on it or the figure is corrected and your score drops overnight. A limit reported too low makes you look maxed out. Either way, lenders are reading something untrue about you, and you have a legal right to have it fixed.

Step 1: Confirm what is actually reported

Get your reports from all three bureaus at AnnualCreditReport.com, which is free. Arro reports to Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, and the error may appear on one, two or all three. Write down for each bureau:

  • The credit limit shown
  • The balance shown
  • The date last reported

Then screenshot your real limit in the Arro app.

Step 2: Dispute with Arro in writing

Email [email protected]. Say you are disputing the accuracy of information Arro furnished to the credit bureaus. Give the real limit, the reported limit, the bureaus affected, and attach your screenshots. Ask for written confirmation when the correction is sent.

Step 3: Dispute with each bureau

File a dispute directly with every bureau that shows the wrong figure. Each has an online dispute form. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act a bureau generally has 30 days to investigate, and it must forward your evidence to the company that reported the data.

Equifax, Experian, TransUnionDispute for the Arro account, same evidence

Step 4: Escalate if nothing changes

  1. Send a second written dispute that references the first, with dates.
  2. File a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. It is free, and the company is expected to respond.
  3. Add a short consumer statement to your credit file explaining the error, if you are applying for credit soon.

Other reporting problems members mention

  • A payment reported late when it was pending. See Arro payments.
  • The account missing from one bureau. Nav suggests checking within 30 to 60 days of opening.
  • An unfamiliar name on the report. The Arro Credit Builder appears under Arro's partner, Upward.
