State: FL
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
I hope this letter finds you in a state of confusion, as I am writing to express my sheer bewilderment at the ongoing circus that my credit report has become. It has recently come to my attention that in addition to the mind-boggling number of fraudulent accounts already haunting my credit profile, you have managed to conjure up even more of them! XXXX! Your incompetence truly knows no bounds. 
Let us, for a moment, ponder the exquisite absurdity of the situation. It appears that not only can you not remove the existing fraudulent accounts, but you also have a talent for spontaneously generating new ones! It's almost impressive how you manage to compound the errors on my credit report with such consistency. 
Should I attempt to dispute these additional phantom accounts? Should I resign myself to the fact that my credit report is now a work of avant-garde fiction? Or perhaps I should just sit back and applaud your dedication to the art of credit reporting surrealism. 
In the spirit of this confounding situation, I formally request the removal of the following accounts, which I am still trying to wrap my head around : XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX

I have since switched to XXXX XXXX but as of XX/XX/XXXX still can not withdraw my funds from US Bank

For me as I need the purchase ASAP, I meaninglessly giving out my Information and wasted my time

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: NY
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
I obtained writing services from XXXX from XXXX XXXX which I was dissatisfied with their product as it did not meet several requirements. The products were not useable. I complained directly to the company who said they would refund me, but never did. I filed a complaint directly with Discover Card as that is what I used to make the payment for the writing services. Originally, it appeared as though Discover found in my favor against the company and I was not longer charged for the services. 

I started receiving harassing emails, text messages, and calls from XXXX demanding that I have Discover reverse the charges and they will refund me directly. If I did not, they threatened to contact my college and accuse me of plagiarism which was never committed. This occurred in XXXX of XXXX. I contacted Discover and explained to them the situation from the merchant and, I was scared, asked them if I was able to relaunch the complaint should they know reimburse me. I was told yes so Discover cancelled the dispute. A month went by and I received no refund from XXXX and the balance left on my credit card was exclusively and entirely from XXXX in the amount of roughly {$240.00}. I explained this to Discover. We were in constant communication regarding this balance. I could not pay for it and did not feel that I should have based off of the agreement. After getting nowhere with XXXX, I asked Discover to relaunch the dispute and the alleged that they would, but then they could not. 

On my credit report, it shows no payment from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. Discover closed my credit card that I had in excellent standing for many years, since XXXX. They closed it abruptly without consulting with me directly. They also had done this despite the fact that I had a case with the Attorney General against XXXX. As a result, my XXXXedit score dropped over 140 points. I want my credit card back opened as I ended up making an agreed payment in XXXX of XXXX after acknowledging that I was not sure how long the AGs investigation was going to go on. During the call with the representative from Discover to make the payment, it was not disclosed to me that my card was closed. Also, the amount was paid and my credit report should reflect that, but it reflects that I missed 27 % of my payments.

Complaint:
On, XX/XX/2021, I submitted my application to CitizensBank. In their advertisement, they stated that the process would be stress free, instead it has become a nightmare, after they conducted a hard pull on my credit. They asked me to submit my paystubs, which I did and stated the sources of my income. I provided authenticated proof from the employer [ letter ] and on XX/XX/2021, they sent me a follow-up email stating that the documents I submitted [ which by the way are actual documents from the XXXX XXXX  XXXX Department of Education ]. I uploaded per their request as they authenticate the sources of income. Again, on XX/XX/2021, the refused the authenticated documents that I submitted and are now asking for my all my W2s. I find the process as having me jumping through hoops rather than addressing the authenticated documents sent from my employers. I am filling this complaint since under the ECOA, it is unlawful for a lender to discriminate on a prohibited basis in any aspect of a credit transaction, and under both the ECOA. Under one these laws, a lender may not, because of a prohibited factor : Fail to provide information or services or provide different information or services regarding any aspect of the lending process, including credit availability, application procedures, or lending standards. 
Discourage or selectively encourage applicants with respect to inquiries about or applications for credit.

XXXX  ; Experian and XXXX  are reporting incorrectly a collection/charge-off in the amount of {$3500.00} on XXXX XXXX, original creditor RISE CREDIT OF TENNESSEE account number XXXX. ( Please see pages attached from my credit report, as well as a copy of the contract from XXXX. ) The interest rate being charged on this loan is over 198.9675 %, and this is PREDATORY LENDING to say the least!!! The Federal Loan cap is a maximum of 28 %! Payments Ive made have not been applied correctly to this account and consequently the balance reporting is wrong. Also, this incorrect reporting of a collection/chargeoff is seriously harming my credit score and this account needs to be removed and/or updated to report accurate information. I have contacted the bureaus to remove this however, I have not been successful.
