Not only did they steal {$25.00} fraudulently from my Discover checking account under the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX for a NSF fee on a check that was NEVER a NSF, it was paid on the second attempt when XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, presented it a second time, then a week later XXXX steals this {$25.00} from my checking account!!! On top of these two and the company working together to commit fraud and steal from customers, they then flat out LIED to the CFPB and Discover Bank!!! They told the CFPB they did not receive this fee and had resolved all on their end, LIARS AND THIEVES!! Then when I saw it had been taken from my account, after the CFPB gave me this response they gave them, I filed a dispute with my bank Discover Bank which I had to contact corporate over and file a complaint to get done, then XXXX their investigator, allowed them to keep the funds claiming it was legitimate after she ignored two of my phone calls and then sent me a short note stating this!!!!! All of the banks are in cohoots allowing this illegal activity!!! Then I get the report from XXXX showing a list of checks that were paid when I wrote them in the past that were NEVER NSF 's either along with them showing a resolve on a check ( # XXXX for {$30.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX ) that was NEVER a NSF, this is the one I am disputing with this claim and also showing on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX # XXXX ( which was never even used, as I always prepay my gas and they declined the check at XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX IL that day and they show this duplicated and not authorized claimant with a code 5 which means possible bad check and I had plenty of money in my account and had no bad checks out nor had I had any!!!!! ) I want all of these removed from my report now and I want all of this information handed over to your investigators and the FTC for prosecution, these idiots NEVER learn they were just fined billions a couple of years ago by the FTC for the same!!!

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: I sent an email directly to the CEO of Discover. Received a letter in the mail stating that he will not remove the late payment history/incorrect payments reporting to the credit bureaus. I have disputed the account with the credit bureaus several times regarding this inaccuracy and the results stated that the data furnisher verified that the information is reporting correctly. This issue has carried on for almost a year. Discover along with the credit bureaus state that they will not correct the information reporting on the account. The account is closed, paid, and still has a {$0.00} credit. I have attached a copy of my credit reports from XXXX and XXXX showing how the pay history is STILL showing an active pay history from one credit bureau while the other bureau is showing a charge off pay history of XXXX each month. This continues to affect my credit over the past year and should be removed by the data furnisher for continuously reporting inaccurate information.

Issue: Getting a credit card

Subissue: Card opened as result of identity theft or fraud

Consumer Complaint: My identity was stolen in XXXX. Discover Card allowed and facilitated this identity theft by not verifying that the applicant was not an impersonator. I have disputed this with the creditor, but they have their information mixed up and not accurate and they are misrepresenting the facts. Such as they claim that i first contacted them to report the theft on XX/XX/XXXX. I have a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, stating that they deactivated my account due to lost or stolen card and they were going to issue a new card! I also have a letter from discover dated XX/XX/XXXX, stating that they have started an investigation for identity theft. NOT XX/XX/XXXX as they have also misrepresented. Discover states that the investigation was completed on XX/XX/XXXX and that the fraud had been removed. I have a letter from Discover dated XX/XX/XXXX. The letter states that upon review of the facts of the case, we determined that unauthorized charges have occurred on the above referenced account. The account has been credited these charges and your valid balance has been transferred to a new account. This is another misrepresentation of facts and Discover also lied because they did not remove ANY charges for anything. Discover also states that i contacted them on XX/XX/XXXX and provided additional information that caused them to reverse their decision. I have a letter from Discover dated XX/XX/XXXX that states the account is being investigated pursuant to an allegation that it was established fraudulently without your knowledge or authorization. Discover Card has not provided me proof that they have a valid application for credit. And their information is inn accurate concerning their investigations!

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: My name is XXXX XXXX, and I am sending this request myself to address the inaccuracies on my Credit Reports. Despite the multiple previous written requests, the DISCOVERBANK account still remains on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. They failed to comply with Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time set forth by law and continued reporting of unverified ( erroneous ) information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed

Subissue: Debt was already discharged in bankruptcy and is no longer owed

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX, we applied for a mortgage loan. On XX/XX/XXXX, we received unconditional approval for the loan. On XX/XX/XXXX, we were asked to pay {$540.00} for the appraisal and credit report. We were promised that the approximate closing date is set for XX/XX/XXXX. We were provided a loan tracker to monitor the progress of the loan. I check the tracker twice a day. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, we called the bank. The bank promised to finalize the loan by the end of the week and setthe closing date for XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, the XXXX XXXX notified us that we have two liens on the propertyby Discover Card and XXXX. We told and provided the XXXX XXXX with documents stating that the two debts were dischargedby theFederal XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, and attached all the relevant Court documents. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX without our consent, contacted the Lienholder/creditor and received the letter saying that we owe them money ( court case # XXXX ) ( Portion of copy of letter dated XX/XX/XXXX as follow : ====================================================== XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, OH XXXX XXXX I XXXX I TTY - XXXX MON-FRI XXXX AM - XXXX XXXX EST XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX Re XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Current Creditor DISCOVER BANK Account Number : XXXX Court Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX, Case Number XXXX XXXX XXXX File Number XXXX Current Balance as of XX/XX/XXXX : {$3800.00} =========================================== We did our lien search on our property, but, there is no lien on our property.

XXXX notified three options ; they are ( 1 ) pay them {$3800.00} ; ( 2 ) Cancel the loan and reapply ; ( 3 ) XXXX loan officer will cancel the loan and try to refund the fee but, we are not likely to get a refund. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, we replied and forward/attach all the related Federal Bankruptcy Discharge and State court order documents over and over again and told XXXX that ( 1 ) We will not pay because we did not owe them. ; ( 2 ) We will not reapply the loan. ; ( 3 ) Refund the fee ~ {$600.00}.

Consumer Complaint: In XXXX of XXXX, I opened a credit card with Discover. I didn't know about the dollar per dollar match for the first year. I also do not recall activating it.
