I am trying to confirm the status of my business, ******** * *********** ****, with Dun & Bradstreet. So that I can clarify questions, I need to speak with someone from Dun & Bradstreet voice-to-voice. During multiple phone calls to the company, I was routed to "Customer Service." Those phone calls were answered by representatives overseas who I could not understand. I requested multiple times to be transferred to someone in the United States. They kept talking. I could not understand them. I said that multiple times. Unfortunately, it seems the only way to resolve this issue is to file a BBB complaint. I am asking that someone who is based in the United States and speaks clear English contact me so that we can address my questions via phone. I have a hearing impairment. It is difficult for me to understand foreign accents on the phone.Business Response

I started a subscription with Dun & Bradstreet for business credit. For the past 2 months I haven’t benefited in no way. There hasn’t been any activity like it promised. Over the past few weeks I’ve reached out to them directly by phone about canceling the subscription. The first time they created a ticket for me to be contacted back but I never received a call. I called again only for them to say they will create another ticket for me to be contacted again. I informed them I would like to cancel the subscription and to stop payment. I finally received a response through an email 2 days ago, close to the time where another payment would be due. In the email the representative indicated they will not cancel the subscription until next year and will not stop payment currently. I informed them that they cannot force me to keep the subscription and I asked are you guys refusing to cancel. I paid over the phone with a debit card and I never agreed to even have my card information saved for future payments as well. I just want to discontinue the subscription.Business Response

D&B deleted our existing DUNS# that we have had since 2012 and created a new # without authorization. We have established business relationships with that DUNS number and being issued a new number has a detrimental impact to our company. DUNS numbers are supposed to be permanent.Business Response

I have attempted four separate times to update the correct business information for my company, ****** ******* *********** ***** *** ******** ******* *********), using Dun & Bradstreet’s iUpdate system. Each time, I receive a vague rejection stating that my company information “could not be verified.” However, the details I submitted match exactly with what’s on file with the ***, Mississippi Secretary of State, and other official documentation.
I’ve called D&B customer service at ***** ******** and asked for clarification, but I have not been given a specific reason why my company information cannot be verified, nor have I received clear guidance on what documents are required. This has led to significant delays in establishing business credit, opening accounts, and building credibility with vendors who rely on D&B’s profile data.
All I’m asking for is transparency and direct support from someone at D&B who can help verify my business and correct the profile. I’ve attached documentation and am willing to provide more if necessary.
I respectfully request the following:
1. A clear explanation of what part of my business information D&B could not verify.
2. A list of acceptable documents that will resolve the issue.
3. Support from a representative who can walk me through the resolution process.
After four failed attempts, this is affecting my business operations and growth.Business Response

Complaint: ********
Dear Duns Bradstreet,
Attention: **** ****** in High risk dept.,
you stated you need documentation but never stated what documents was needed to remove the high risk status?
as i was originally was told from previous agent who submitted serverable l tickets to youre dept because i already verified identity info just to correct address and phone number i had to take selfie and submit ID
i was told then the high risk would be removed than but wasnt. i am happy to provide documents but normal credit agencies would say exactly whats needed you never stated whats needed.
I also requested from Duns solid proof documents that my business is high risk and if you cannot provide solid proof of such negative information you must cease and desist from reporting such defamation information on my business.
Also your company never responded to my recent bbb.org complaint i ask that you comply with bb.org instead of ignoring this complaint.
i hope to here from soon of what documents you requesting because i surely dont have an issue with ********* ******** Buisness reports.Business Response

1. *** makes it impossible to navigate their site for DUN number requests and updates 2. *** customer service is highly incompetent and cannot simply delete an account so that multiple businesses can use ONE email and password account.3. *** doesn't make it clear that MULTIPLE businesses can be added to ONE user account and makes it impossible to delete the extra accounts.4. *** makes it impossible to cancel a pending application either on their site or with customer service.Business Response

I am the owner of a sole
proprietorship. I requested a D&B number and provided all the info needed. Not only has it taken forever to hear back, when they did they sent a link to an app to take pictures of my business such as the building, signs, and office furniture. I run this out of my house as many sole proprietors do involved in telehealth services. Since when does office furniture and a building prove a business? HELLO, IM NOT AN LLC!!!!!!!! Why doesn't D&B visit the State of California BBS site and look up my professional license? I’ve established a few business credit lines with zero problem so why does D& B have an issue? What a disgusting, inept, and deceptive organization. I’d like a D&B number issued immediately.Business Response

I have requested several times for Dun & Bradstreet to update my company’s information, each time I am told that verification failed due to the principal officer (myself) “not responding”.
I never received a phone call verification from Dun & Bradstreet and I responded to a request for information from their Research Analyst via email which was falsely claimed that I never responded. I have attached proof of me responding to the company’s verification request.
