How to cancel TransUnion hassle-free with DoNotPay

TransUnion is a global credit-reporting agency that acts as an intermediary between businesses and consumers. It collects information on over a billion consumers in more than 30 countries around the world, monitors credits, makes credit reports, and offers a variety of fraud protection products to its customers.

Does TransUnion offer free trials?

Yes, TransUnion offers free trials as a way of attracting new customers. The terms of the free trials are specific to the products that are provided by it. You will need to provide your debit or credit card details before you are allowed to use your free trial. You won’t be charged for anything you have access to until the trial expires. Note that you may be offered a payable upgrade to your trial while it lasts. If you accept, you will be charged for the upgrade, your trial will be terminated, and you will be on a paid subscription to TransUnion.

Will a TransUnion free trial turn into a paid subscription automatically?

Yes, even if you don’t upgrade during your free trial, once it expires, your account will continue into a paid membership without notice to you, and you will be charged to the credit card you supplied. Your subscription will be auto-renewed and billed in the same way in the months that follow until you cancel it. You can cancel your TransUnion trial at any point before it expires. By doing so, you will prevent the company from auto-subscribing you into a paid membership.

DoNotPay’s virtual credit card doesn’t let companies auto-renew you into paid subscriptions!

By using our virtual credit card, you can prevent companies such as TransUnion charge you without you being aware of it. To the company, it will look like any other credit card, but they won’t be able to collect any payments from you once the trial period ends. You will avoid being trapped in an unwanted subscription and save hundreds of dollars that would otherwise drip out of your pockets unnecessarily.

How can I cancel TransUnion on my own?

The only way to cancel your TransUnion membership at this time is via phone. Here is what you should do:

  1. Dial the toll-free number (855) 681-3196
  2. Wait on hold until a representative answers
  3. Tell them that you want to cancel your subscription
  4. Provide relevant account details and a reason for cancelation
  5. Ask to receive a confirmation of your cancelation

TransUnion offers both free and paid memberships. Note that when you cancel a paid subscription, they will automatically start you on a free one. If you want to close your account with TransUnion permanently, you would also have to cancel that subscription separately.

Another detail to keep in mind is that after you cancel, you will lose access to your data, including any credit scores and analyses purchased during the subscription period.
