Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Information belongs to someone else

Consumer Complaint: I'm a person of integrity. I've worked hard to have a stellar financial reputation. However, discover has poisoned me for almost 7 years now. They keep repeating a fraudulent account onto my XXXX credit report. I've disputed and disputed to no avail. I've requested to be shown original documents as I'm entitled to under section 609 of the fair credit reporting act and neither discover nor XXXX complied. This is my last attempt to have it removed before I seek Justice via trial by jury as outlined in the 7th amendment of the Constitution.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement

Subissue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Consumer Complaint: XX/XX/2019 I ordered one bottle of vitamins online thru an ad pop up using my Discover card, I received 2 bottles and was charged for both. I called the company and the lady said you have to have both. I said no I will return it, she said no returns and hung up. I called Discover card and the lady said call company and tell them cancel and send a confirmation via email. I called and the lady screamed at me, '' you can not cancel '', and hung up on me. I called Discover back told CSR what happened and the {$4.00} x 2 charges were credited back to me. 2 months laterXXXX, I get 2 charges of {$89.00} charged to my account from the XXXX company. I called Discover and told them cancel my card or stop this company from charging me. I have no products or services for this charge and I told them to cancel my account in XXXX. I was told to call the XXXX company so I did, they said I got my Discover card involved and I can not call them, XXXX, and hung up on me. Discover card credited the two charges and told me there is a stop charge from XXXX and they can not charge anything to my account anymore. The following week, XX/XX/2019, I was charged {$94.00} x 2 from XXXX. I once again called Discover and told them no products or services are being received from this company and they were not supposed to allow any more charges from them. They said we really can not stop them from charging anything. But she credited me the two charges. The next day I received a package from XXXX which I refused and the mailman took it back. My XXXX bill from Discover card has all these credited charges reinstated on my bill. The Discover CSR said XXXX disputed the credits so I have to pay them. I have no products or services for these {$360.00} charges. I wanted to talk to a supervisor and wanted copies of all Discovers investigations into this company and disputes and was told No. I asked for a supervisor and was put on hold and after 5 mins I hung up. I tried numerous times to get a supervisor and was told someone will call me back in 72 hrs, no one ever did. I called again and same thing, someone call me back in 72 hrs. That last call to Discover was XX/XX/2019 and it is now XX/XX/2019 and no one has called me back I pay my bills on time and have very good credit. Discover card took the word, with out an investigation apparently, of this non reputable company, XXXX, that another Discover CSR rep told me they have many complaints with, and continue to charge me for products and services I do not have or did not get.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Information belongs to someone else

Consumer Complaint: Over the past year, I have been proactively identifying and disputing accounts and personal information that was fraudulently opened under my name and social security number without my knowledge and consent. There is one particular creditor, Discover, that currently reports to of the credit bureaus ( XXXX and XXXX ) and will not cooperate to help me remove this unauthorized and fraudulent account off my credit report. I have consistently dispute with proper documentation as supporting evidence of this account being fraudulent and cause due to a case of identity theft. However neither credit bureau has properly investigated and removed the account, which is required in a situation like this, specifically because theres undeniable evidence which I have sent multiple times to both XXXX and XXXX as proof. Discover continues to update the account as valid, which is wrongful action to take. There is nothing on the account to validate, it simply does not belong to me under my name and social security number. Ive never opened an account with Discover under my name. It has severely hindered my financial abilities and outlook, specifically pertaining to my credit. To make matters worse, XXXX deleted the account only to reinsert the account a month later and this occurred in XXXX. It was done with no explanation and they did not provide any documentation as to why the account was reinserted and no notice was sent to my residence. XXXX also has been unwilling to cooperate and simply remove an account that is not mine. I am praying that this platform allows for a consumer like me to not be taken advantage and be punished financially for something that does not belong to me in the first place. I have placed fraud alerts on both credit bureaus, I have sent in proper and detailed documentation to support identity theft and this account being fraudulent and no proper action has been taken. I am hoping I can get this resolved as soon as possible, as it is critically affecting my credit and ability to have options.

Issue: Closing your account

Subissue: Company closed your account

Consumer Complaint: In an attempt to improve my credit score, I am paying down and off all my credit cards. Discover is my oldest credit card with the largest available balance. I paid it off and haven't used it in about two years, but I had intended to keep it. WIthout a warning, I received an email from Discover on XX/XX/2019 saying my card was closed by them for lack of use. I called today XX/XX/2019 ( due to the holiday ) and spoke to XXXX at XXXX who said it is too late. I would have to reapply. I explained what I am trying to do and he said there was nothing he could do about it. I find this truly unfair as if they had warned me first, I would have used it. This is going to ding my credit score ... ..why is it that the people who attempt to improve their scores get punished? I am hoping you can help me to get that specific account reopened and I promise to use it if I must. Please advise.
