Last updated: April 28, 2026 · By Class Action Buddy
TransUnion, one of the three major credit reporting agencies, has faced multiple class action lawsuits resulting in significant settlements for consumers. We've tracked 2 major TransUnion settlements that provided compensation to affected individuals, though both claim periods have now expired. The largest was a $23 million credit report dispute settlement that offered up to $160 per person for those who experienced issues with TransUnion's dispute resolution process. This settlement required documentation to support claims. Additionally, a $2.5 million Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) settlement provided up to $40 per eligible class member without requiring proof of harm. These cases typically arose from allegations that TransUnion violated federal credit reporting laws or failed to properly investigate consumer disputes about inaccurate information on credit reports. While these particular settlements are no longer accepting claims, TransUnion continues to face ongoing legal challenges related to its credit reporting practices. Class Action Buddy helps consumers stay informed about new settlement opportunities and simplifies the claims process when deadlines are still open.
