Issue: Trouble using your card

Subissue: Can't use card to make purchases

Consumer Complaint: My Discover Credit Card has a credit limit of {$3500.00} for XXXX XXXX years. Perfect credit history here. I am not happy about it but I never bothered to apply for increasing the credit limit. However, this company is crazy now. They locked my card yesterday without prior notice, which caused some trouble and embarrassment. Today I was told to authorize them ( in collaboration with XXXX. LOL ) to request my tax forms from IRS ( XXXX ) otherwise they would close my account in XXXX days. Obviously they have their very special way to do business, but at this point any thoughts of me to use this card is a self-humiliation.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed

Subissue: Debt is not yours

Consumer Complaint: I am writing to formally request a thorough investigation into the discrepancies and verification presented in the recent communication regarding an account allegedly opened in my name. I have serious concerns about the accuracy and legitimacy of the information provided, and I believe it is necessary to ensure compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and North Carolina credit laws. Upon reviewing the statement received from Discover, I have identified several discrepancies regarding the addresses and phone numbers associated with the account. I would like to clarify that I have no knowledge of the mentioned addresses, nor have I ever resided at or received mail at these locations. Furthermore, the phone numbers listed as verification are unfamiliar to me, and I have no record of ownership or usage of these numbers. In light of the discrepancies mentioned above, I also wish to address the statute of limitations for debt collection in North Carolina. As per North Carolina credit laws, the statute of limitations for most types of debt is three years. It is crucial to determine whether the statute of limitations has expired in this case, as it may affect the creditor 's ability to pursue legal action to enforce the debt. I request that you thoroughly review the relevant dates and account history to assess compliance with the statute of limitations. In accordance with the FCRA and North Carolina credit laws, I kindly request that you initiate a comprehensive investigation into the validity and accuracy of the information provided by Discover. This investigation should include verification of the aforementioned addresses, phone numbers, and any other associated details. I also request that you obtain and review any supporting documentation provided by Discover, such as written documents or records, to substantiate their claims. Furthermore, I kindly request that Discover provides me with a detailed report of the investigation 's findings within the statutory timeframe of 30 days, as outlined by the FCRA, which they have yet to do. Additionally, I would appreciate their assistance in clarifying how their actions, as outlined in their communication, comply with the requirements of North Carolina credit laws, including the options for repayment assistance directly through Discover and not a third party. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and your commitment to upholding the provisions of the FCRA and North Carolina credit laws. Thank you for your assistance in resolving this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.

Issue: Improper use of your report

Subissue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Consumer Complaint: I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. My name is XXXX XXXX. I am writing to you with a request for accommodation regarding my Discover Bank account, XXXX. I kindly request that you consider removing the late payments from my credit report and updating them to " paid as agreed. '' I regret to inform you that I faced severe financial difficulties due to the unforeseen circumstances of contracting XXXX. As a result, I lost my job at that time and was unable to meet my financial obligations, including making timely payments on my Discover Bank account. This unfortunate situation had a significant impact on my ability to maintain a consistent payment history. Moreover, the consequences of XXXX extended far beyond the financial realm. I contracted a severe form of the virus that left me physically and emotionally debilitated. The extent of my illness was so severe that I was unable to take care of my beloved bulldog, who was my loyal companion. Tragically, due to my illness, I was unable to provide the necessary care, and my bulldog passed away. The immense grief and guilt I experienced over his loss plunged me into a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, further hindering my ability to handle my financial responsibilities effectively. I understand the importance of a positive credit history and take full responsibility for the late payments. However, I humbly request your understanding and compassion during this extremely challenging time in my life. I have sought professional help to overcome the XXXX and guilt that consumed me, and I have made significant progress in rebuilding my emotional well-being. Now, I am pleased to inform you that I have successfully overcome those financial hardships and have regained stable employment. I am committed to meeting my financial responsibilities and ensuring timely payments moving forward. Removing the late payment history associated with the period when I was affected by XXXX would greatly assist me in restoring a positive credit standing and rebuilding my financial stability. To support my request, I have enclosed relevant documents, including medical records and veterinary documentation confirming my illness and the unfortunate passing of my beloved bulldog. I hope these documents provide additional context to understand the profound emotional toll and financial difficulties I faced during that period. I sincerely appreciate your time and consideration in reviewing my request. I assure you that I am committed to responsible financial management and will diligently make future payments on time. I am determined to rectify my credit history and maintain a positive relationship with Discover Bank. Please let me know if there are any further steps or documents required to support my request. I would be grateful for an update on the progress of my request and any decisions made by Discover Bank. Thank you for your understanding and for taking the time to consider my appeal. I look forward to your favorable response. Yours sincerely, XXXX XXXX
