Consumer complaint received 2022-07-28
Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: OH
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:
- XX/XX/XXXX My card was charged {$160.00} by flohocky. 

- XX/XX/XXXX I disputed this fraudulent charge as I didn't have and never had an account with flohockey. While reviewing my account I discovered another previous fradulent charge from flohocky on XX/XX/XXXX for {$140.00} and disputed this at the same time. 

After I had disputed the charges I was also advised to contact flohockey. Their customer service was unhelpful and they told me since I disputed the charge they couldn't do anything about it. I looked up flohocky on the better business bureau and saw they have a F rating. Apparently I am not the only one they are ripping off. 

- XXXX XXXX Discover card reversed the dispute for both charges and reapplied the charges to my account. 

- XXXX, XXXX, XXXX I noticed that the fraudulent charges had been reapplied to my account back in XXXX. I immediately called to find out how that was possible. I was told they would reopen the dispute for the XXXX and once that was resolved they would work on the XXXX charge too. I was told they would follow up with me as to the results of their investigation. 

- XX/XX/XXXX After not hearing anything from Discover card I looked into my account to see the fraudulent {$160.00} reapplied to my account again and spent nearly an hour and a half talking to XXXX different people trying to get these fraudulent charges resolved. I asked what evidence they had that these charges were not fraud. The answer I got was that they had my wife 's name ( authorized account user ) and card information so they viewed them as legitimate charges. I explained that neither myself nor my wife ever signed up for flohockey service nor did we ever provided them with the account information. A charge not authorized by myself or my wife pretty much seems like fraud to me. We don't know how they got the card information.

Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Banking errors

Complaint:
I began to receive random, unauthorized charges to my CashApp debit card, which depleted my money directly from my CashApp balance, on XX/XX/2022. 
I opened disputes for each and every one of these purchases immediately, and let them know that my CashApp card had been compromised. I began receiving money back for a FEW of the transactions that I disputed on XX/XX/XXXX. 
I alerted CashApp at the time of dispute that my card had been compromised, and needed to be locked down, and that any and all purchases starting on XX/XX/XXXX were no authorized, not mine, and were fraudulent. 
They clearly agreed that this was the case, because they began to refund me for SOME of those transactions, claiming that they were ruled in my favor - " Your Cash Card dispute claim was resolved in your favor and is now complete. A credit has been applied to your Cash App balance and is ready to use. '' However, they then declined to refund some of those disputed transactions - some of which were from the same merchants on the same exact day as purchases they chose to refund and rule in my favor. 
I contacted CashApp customer service 100 's of times and was blatantly ignored. I continued to reopen disputes, because I was not going to allow them to steal my money and ignore me. 
Instead of resolving the matter, or answering my constant attempts at contact, they closed down my CashApp account. 
They then sold off stocks I had purchased through CashApp, MONTHS later, without alerting me, emailing me, OR paying me for them. The stocks were sold on XX/XX/2022 for {$38.00}, but I never received a cent of that, and it is not in my CashApp balance, since my account is closed down and can not hold a balance. 
So not only did they sell off my stocks without my consent, never alert me of it, but they stole the profit as well. 

CashApp fraudulently stole hundreds of dollars from me during a dispute period, while refunding and ruling smaller purchases from the fraudulent chain of transactions in my favor, shut down my account, fraudulently sold off my stocks, and then stole that profit. They are a horrible company with no customer service, that don't follow any proper banking practices, and should be charged criminally.

Complaint:
FOLLOW UP. I FILED A COMPLAINT 30 DAYS AGO STILL NO RESULT. THIS IS UNDER FEDERAL LAW, YOU HAVE 30 DAYS TO COMPLETE YOUR INVESTIGATION. THESE NEGATIVE ITEMS ARE HIGHLY DAMAGING MY CREDIT REPORT AND CREDITWORTHINESS. 

On XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  I wrote to you requesting an investigation into items that I believed were fraud, inaccurate, and falsely reporting. To this date only response that I have received was computergenerated letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 
On XX/XX/XXXXXXXX   I wrote to you requesting an investigation into items that I believed were fraud, I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance. 
I further remind you that, as in White v. Experian Information Solutions, 993 F. Supp. 2d 1154 - Dist. 
Court, ( CD California 2014 ) ; you may be liable for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by recklessly failing to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the accurate reporting of debts discharged in bankruptcy and by refusing to adequately investigate consumer disputes regarding the status of discharged accounts. 
I have requested that all NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS provide proof of alleged items. I request to be provided with specifically the original application, contract, note, or another instrument bearing my signature. 
In addition, any the contract signed between NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS & the original creditor, notarized and sworn under penalty and perjury NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS ability to collect this alleged debt. 
I request this under 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of debts. If information is not provided or the false reporting isnt removed ; as in Wenger v. Trans Union Corp., No. 95-6445 ( C.D.Cal. Nov. 14, 1995 ), you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be reinvestigated.

I have reached out SEVERAL times and they will not update my personal information to report correctly, and I have a couple hard inquiries that need to be removed as I did not authorize these. They will not even discuss my credit report or my information with me. Very unprofessional as to why I will be seeking legal action if these items below are not corrected in a VERY TIMELY manner. 
Per the legal advice my name needs to appear as it does on my ID XXXX XXXX XXXX any and ALL other names need such as XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX to be removed. 
My address needs to be updated to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Ga XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Ga XXXX - never lived here Remove XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Va XXXX - no such street - do not live here XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Va XXXX- do no live here Remove XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Va XXXX- do not live here Remove employer XXXX - I do not work here Remove XXXX XXXX XXXX I do not work here My employers is XXXX XXXX - UPDATE to reflect this employer These XXXX inquiries were NOT authorized and only XXXX ran my credit through them in XX/XX/2021 - how these others got on here are beyond me as I only authorized one credit run when I bought my car. I spoke with XXXX and they said they did not request these inquires as they knew only to try one bank. As NOBODY would shop around and allow this many hits on their score and credit report. I am beyond livid that this is on my report to begin with. 
If these items are not removed and or updated in a timely manner I will be getting a lawyer to look into this and will sue if i need too. This is affecting my credit rights, consumer rights and withholding me from providing for me and my children. CORRECT THIS NOW!!!

Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
I received a copy of my credit report with the intention of trying to improve my credit and take care of my responsibilities and noticed a few accounts that I wanted a little more explanation on. I am not saying they are reporting right or wrong. I am just saying that I am not XXXX percent sure if they are. I also read something called the Fair Credit Reporting Act where it said by law, I had rights to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate. Some of the people reporting things on me, I have never heard of which made me write to you all. 
Are you familiar with something called 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681i ( a )? I heard that if you cant provide proof, these accounts must be deleted. Well I want these accounts deleted if they are not XXXX percent right and correct. I saw on a Credit Site and Board where this lawyer said you have XXXX  days to complete this investigation ( I did a deput XX/XX/2022, XX/XX/2022 ) As you are well aware, federal law requires you to respond within 30 days. It has now been over that period since the receipt of my letter. As you are no doubt aware, failure to comply with federal regulations by credit reporting agencies is in serious violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and may be investigated by the FTC. Obviously, I am maintaining detailed records of all my correspondence with you.
