Complaint sub-issue: Deposits and withdrawals

This is a continuation of complaint # XXXX. Discover Bank responded by resiting its deposit agreement, never addressed the fact that they did not properly notify me of the illegal garnishment by the state of California. Since the state of California did not have a right to levy my account ( They failed to identify an ID theft case where somebody else filed a tax return using some of my information ) and Discover Bank failed to properly notify me about said levy, I hold this transaction to be illegal, and demand that Discover Bank recover the funds on my behalf before I bring this issue to court.

Complaint sub-issue: You told them to stop contacting you, but they keep trying

On XX/XX/2022 I received a call from the collection agency while I was currently admitted in the XXXX. I missed the call so I called them back and advised them that I was not in a position to discuss the situation at all and they they needed to cease any and all communication immediately and disconnected the call. Since them they have continued to make repeated attempts to contact me ( at least 5 additional calls since then ). They use deceptive measures to disguise their identity buy consistently changing the caller ID to read veracious things, however they do provide voicemail messages. The voicemail is the " XXXX XXXX '' so clearly is the agency that was placed on a cease communications verbally. I have had no communication in written form to date. They were legally mandated to provide a XXXX letter per Nevada collections law sent either certified mail or registered mail. This was never done. This would have provided me 30 days notice prior top any collections beginning. Once this is done they can send a initial collections letter providing 30 days to dispute the debt. This never happened either. This agency is clearly not abiding by Federal or state laws such as the FDCPA or state laws XXXX XXXX as well as well as the regulation F mandate that provides a 7 day cool off period between calls once communication is established. The initial conversation was on XX/XX/2022 ( provided they were not placed on a verbal cease and deceit ) and they provided a voicemail message on XX/XX/2022. This collection agency is using and continues to use Unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts and practices as part of the daily operations. I currently still have no idea what debt they may be referring to since they never handled themself correctly with any communication both written or verble. Please help me put an end to the abuse and harassment.

Complaint sub-issue: Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone

XXXX/XXXX  Equifax indicates that it is up to me to provide information to them regarding hard inquires for 2 XXXX hard inquires on my credit report. Also, on XX/XX/2021 after specking with Equifax over night my credit score dropped XXXX points? Also, three derogatory remarks have also been placed on my report. I was told by " consumer Affairs '', to file a police report. A score can't drop XXXX point 's in just one day?

That is not true, I was informed by the " CFPB ''. I was at XXXX on XX/XX/2021, but overnight it went down XXXX point 's, how can that happen? All the other agency I have a outstanding credit score 's. it has been over thirty days, I need this to be corrected, this has been disputed before. I did not want to go to the police or file a complaint with the " CFPB '' or " Consumer Affairs ''. I have also been advised that I might have t file a complaint with my State Attorney General. 

A gentleman in the XXXX and a gentleman named XXXX refused to dispute the hard inquires. They told me I had to get an attorney with my notarized signature to have them removed. 

I told them that I HAVE NOT applied for service with XXXX and that I want the hard inquires removed. They both refused to file a dispute with their employer regarding these inquires. XXXX has NO records of me applying for service. I have been on the phone for over 40 minutes trying to get someone to help me.

Without limiting the general application of foregoing, the following conduct is a violation of this section : ( 1 ) The use or threat of use of violence or other criminal means to harm the physical person, reputation, or property of any person. 

These accounts are ruining my reputation and it is also defamation of my character.
