Complaint sub-issue: Application denied

I, a consumer and natural person recently became an applicant when I applied for a consumer credit transaction with Discover bank. After submitting my application, Discover denied me of my right that I exercised in good faith of extending my credit. Pursuant to Federal Laws and 12 CFR 100 2 Regulation B, it is unlawful to discriminate against me and not allow me to exercise my right i n extending my credit through their financial institution. This caused me some small damages a nd inconveniences due to the fact that I intended on immediately utilizing this credit extension f or some family and household purposes. A Discover letter stating that I was denied based on Age of Youngest Inquiry, Ratio of Satisfactory Trades to Total Trades is too Low, Number of inquiries in the last month, which also is discrimination because it is my right to extend my credit through them for personal, household, and family purposes when done in good faith.

Complaint sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. I am appalled by the ability of Equifax to keep ignoring a consumer 's request for the correction of the disputed account on my Credit Report. Under the FCRA sections 609 and 611, the Credit Bureaus are required to verify the information and status of the account being reported on my Credit Report. But in my case, Equifax has kept reporting the disputed account claiming that the information they present is accurate, with which I greatly disagree. I am submitting this complaint to you today to request that Equifax provide me copies of documents bearing my signature to verify the status of the disputed account. If the Credit Bureaus failed to comply with the condition and continue the reporting of the disputed account, please understand I will seek legal action. I need the account corrected as soon as possible : XXXX  XXXX XXXX

I did not consent nor contract with XXXX XXXX XXXX on Wednesday XXXX XXXX. I request that this account XXXX is deleted. I ask that this alleged debt is verified and investigated.
