Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Overcharged for something you did purchase with the card
Company: DISCOVER BANK (VA)

Previous complaint never properly resolved. Overcharged {$71.00}. Merchandise either defective or provably undelivered. XXXX acknowledged the total failure and gave a {$7.00} shipping credit. An admission of wrongdoing. I received a letter from Discover saying the account is closed. Now a week later they are billing me for the totally bogus ILLEGAL charges and applying interest. Discover isn't clean as well having spuriously charged me {$30.00} on a " returned check fee '' when I wrote no check and had some problem getting Discover to recognize a new bank account. The ILLEGAL FRAUDULENT THEFT charges will never be paid.The account has been closed and I am NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DISCOVER FICTION.

I mailed my {$2800.00} rent check to my landlord on XXXX  On XX/XX/XXXX someone cashed a check that had been washed with a new recipient ( unknown to me ) for {$4800.00}. On the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX fraudsters have added tacky stuff to postal boxes so they can intercept mail. My landlord notified me at the end of the month that I was late on rent ( I was returning from maternity leave ) and I saw the fraudulent check and promptly alerted Chase. They opened an investigation, but sent me to the branch to close my account. The fraudster continued in XXXX to attempt to cash additional checks to my closed account, but I alerted Chase quickly whenever I saw the transactions. Despite my account being closed 1 or 2 checks still posted and I had to speak with Chase reps to get the funds reimbursed. Chase is working with the other bank and I've submitted documentation at their request on multiple occasions. Reps have confirmed that I should just wait and it can take over a year to be resolved, but I'm afraid the statute of limitations will run up soon and Chase will claim they aren't liable if the other bank does not respond. The last letter regarding this investigation was in XXXX ( fairly recent ), but just says it's in the other banks hands and Chase is not liable for the funds.

It is essential to rectify this situation promptly to ensure compliance with IRS guidelines and to avoid any unnecessary tax implications for affected individuals. 

I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter thoroughly and take appropriate actions to ensure XXXX XXXX adheres to IRS regulations regarding the reporting of cancellation of debt. Additionally, I kindly request that you communicate with XXXX XXXX to rectify the reporting errors and provide clear guidance on the correct procedures to follow in such cases.
