Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: DISCOVER BANK (NY)

Dear Consumer Financial Bureau, I am writing to you to express my frustration and disappointment with Discover Bank 's handling of my previous complaint number XXXX. In that complaint, I reported that a credit card was fraudulently opened in my name, XXXX XXXX, and was not received by me, but instead by a person named XXXX who lived in my apartment building. Despite Discover Bank acknowledging that this credit card was not opened by me, they are refusing to remove it from my credit report unless it is paid by me, even though it was not mine in the first place. 

I find this to be a blatant injustice and an unfair practice. I have provided all necessary legal documents and evidence to prove that this credit card was not mine, yet Discover Bank is still refusing to take any action to correct this mistake. This has caused me great distress and has had a significant impact on my credit score.

I am asking the Consumer Financial Bureau to intervene and take action on this matter. I believe that Discover Bank is engaging in unfair and deceptive practices by holding me responsible for a credit card that was opened fraudulently and not by me. I request that the CFB investigates this matter thoroughly and takes appropriate action to ensure that Discover Bank corrects this mistake and removes this credit card from my credit report. 

I look forward to hearing back from you on this matter and appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

15USC 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( AXi ) clearly states that transactions between the consumer and the Person/Corporation making the report is NOT included on the consumer reports. Yet XXXX is reporting this information.. The reporting of excluded information pursuant to 15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) i ) on a consumer report is a clear violation of XXXX compliance. Provide me with the XXXX compliance disclosure on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency.

Before you think to reply that this account has been " validated '', let 's be clear that I am not asking you to validate or verify anything. So please do not respond by telling me that as a tactic to waste my valuable time. Some of the negative accounts have been placed in Collection/Charge-Off Status WITHOUT mailing me a copy of IRS form XXXX Cancellation of Debt. XXXX and the creditors reporting collections/Charge-Offs, late payments/other derogatory information in my consumer reports are in violation of 26 USC ss 6050P Returns Relating to the Cancellation of Indebtedness By Certain Entities. If this derogatory account information is not deleted from my consumer reports within 30 days, I will be forced to officially file IRS form 3949A : Information Referral AND IRS form 211 : Application For Award For Original Information Overview with the Internal Revenue Service against ALL entities involved.

Later that day, the XXXX police told me that my truck has been repossessed. I brought the truck on XX/XX/XXXX from the XXXX XXXX Police auto auction. I paid for it in full and have a clean and clear title. Since they took the truck on XXXX XXXX weekend, I had to wait until that Tuesday to find out what happened to my truck. The tow company told me that the truck was repossessed by Credit Acceptance. I called Credit Acceptance and they told me to send in my title and bill of sale, and they should release the truck in 24-48 hours. I called back in after 48 hours, and was told that they were still investigating. Finally on the XXXX of XXXX, they said I could have my truck back. I told them I had no way of getting it since it was towed out of state. After numerous calls, they agreed to tow my truck back on XX/XX/XXXX. My truck came back with a rip in the front seat. All my families ' belonging thrown together in a big bag. I called Credit Acceptance to see how they were going to remedy this saturation. They told me I had to have a before picture of the seat, which I do not have. I think most people do not keep before and after pictures of their car seats. They are not telling me what they are going to do about me missing work or the car rental I had to do to take my mother to the doctor. I can get the car rental agreement, but the picture of seat or my work information should not be my burden for their mistake.

Alleged Violation of 15 USC 1692g - Validation of Debt I am asserting that a debt collection attempt made by Consumer Adjustment Company , Inc breaches my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), particularly under 15 USC 1692g, which mandates the validation of debt.

**Lack of Opportunity to Dispute Debt** Despite being approached by Consumer Adjustment Company , Inc. , regarding an alleged debt, I lacked prior knowledge of its existence and was not afforded the opportunity to contest it.

**Request for Certified Mail Receipt** Per 15 USC 1692g , debt collectors are obligated to furnish consumers with a written notice within five days of initial contact, outlining debt details and dispute rights. However, no such communication was received. I demand Consumer Adjustment Company , Inc., furnish the certified mail receipt, corroborated by my signature, confirming compliance with statutory notification requirements.

**Unlawful Debt Collection Practices in New Jersey** It has come to my attention that Consumer Adjustment Company , Inc. , lacks authorization to pursue debt collections in New Jersey , my state of residence. Consequently, any pursuit of this alleged debt contravenes state regulations.

XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX In accordance with FCC regulations, the specific code or provision that grants me this right is outlined in Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations ( CFR ). While I do not have the exact code at hand, it is my understanding that the FCC ensures consumers have access to signed copies of contracts, especially those related to telecommunications and related services.

This is a breach of contract and an adverse action for exercising my rights.

Consumers also have rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), a separate federal law that regulates the practices of debt collectors. Under the FDCPA, if you request validation of a debt within 30 days of receiving the initial communication from a debt collector, the collector must provide you with certain information, including a written verification of the debt, if requested. However, this does not necessarily require the collector to provide the original signed contract or " wet documents. ''
