Company: DISCOVER BANK (GA)

Discover claims my tranasctions are factual and have not provided receipts of deposits into their bank account to share delinquent postings. Discover has previous consent orders for deceptive acts and practices, unfair practices by overstating minimums due and violating fair debt collection practices per XXXX. 
Where is the proof the data is factual and accurate according to Discover? Nor have they complied with the congressional Pandemic law that makes it illegal to share derogatory payment information of any consumer during the pandemic, which still has not been declared over. Nor have they followed my written instructions to DE-LINK my account from sharing my private data, transactions or experiences. REMOVE all comments and labels saying DISPUTED on my consumer reports, I clearly, conspicuously, & unambiguously revoked consent to collect or share my non-public data. They don't follow their own card agreement to limit my data when I've repeatedly written and called them to stop their inentional violation of my rights. Discover agents are prohibiting me from correcting erroneous postings on my consumer report.

On XX/XX/2022 at XXXX XXXX  I received a email from a debt collector Amer Assist on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX saying that I owed a debt of {$120.00} and it was sent to collections. This is not accurate. I would like someone to please look into the false claim of a debt and harassing emails I am receiving from Amer Assist at work. It is not fair to be harassed by this company for a false debt. It is a violation of the fair credit reporting act to to report an inaccurate statement of balance due. As per FCRA Violations when an agency, business or individual fails to exercise proper care or takes action that a reasonable person would not with regard to your credit information, that is negligent behavior as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has done. I would like XXXX XXXX to correct this false debt allegation and have Amer Assit stop harassing me via email and phone calls.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (NY)

Today I called Capital One to file a dispute with two Charges from XXXX. The representative that I spoke was not paying attention being she had asked me if I discussed the charge with my husband and I said no there was no reason being he has his own XXXX account but that was not enough with her being she maybe he used it. I told her there no reason to discuss the dispute with him as he did not use my card being he does not have my card ( s ). The representative informed that she was going to send me a card and I said no but that did not stop from deactivating my card without telling me. I became very upset. I then spoke with her Supervisor XXXX who said he can not do anything being card was de-activated already. I then informed him that I want my card sent to me overnight and he said no problem. After he gave me my case number at my request he stated he can not send me a card and that I would have to speak with a Supervisor in the Specialist Dept. he did not know why he could send me a card. He informed me he was going to explain to the Supervisor the situation. I then spoke with XXXX whom started process to mail me card for which I explained that the Supervisor promised me my card would be sent over night. I was then told she can not send me my card over night but would speak with someone higher up. She came back on the phone to tell that she can not do anything that I would be receive my card 4-6 business days. I was very upset and I informed her that I would file a complaint with this agency. I want to this agency to investigate why my card was deactivated without my consent or knowledge and why did the Supervisor could not send me a new card and finally why he failed to inform XXXX to mail me my card over night. Please feel free to contact me via email if anyone has any questions. Thank you

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CT)

I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction and frustration with the persistent mishandling of my credit report. The matter at hand involves numerous instances where my credit score has suffered due to unauthorized hard inquiries, particularly by XXXX XXXX, and subsequent inadequate corrections by Experian. 
On XXXX XXXX XXXX I was alerted by XXXX and XXXX XXXX about changes to my credit report. Investigation revealed an unauthorized hard pull by XXXX XXXX, an action I neither authorized nor initiated. Despite immediately reaching out to Experian, XXXX, and XXXX, the responses, particularly from Experian, were shockingly insufficient. 
Experian 's initial notification stated an XXXXpoint drop in my credit score due to the XXXX XXXX inquiry. After disputing this with an Experian fruad department representative and providing XXXX XXXX 's reference number ( XXXX fraudulent application with notes stating : closed application ), my credit score with Experian increased by a mere XXXX points on XXXX XXXX XXXX This pattern of losing more points than regained after unauthorized inquiries is a recurring and unacceptable issue. My credit score should have passed XXXX by now but because of the inaccurate reporting and the pattern of hard inquiries from the same XXXX XXXX, my score continues to suffer with Experian. 
The proactive measure of freezing my credit file, which should prevent unauthorized inquiries, has proven ineffective against XXXX XXXX XXXX persistent actions. This is a blatant disregard for my rights as a consumer and a failure in ensuring the security of my credit information. I only had the freeze temporarily lifted upon suggestion from a XXXX XXXX XXXX representative when I went to open a checking and savings account with them. 
Moreover, Experian 's reporting inaccuracies have further compounded the problem. My total debt, initially reported as {$350.00}, skyrocketed to an astonishing {$21000.00}. This egregious error has had a severe impact on my credit score, hindering my financial plans, particularly my ability to proceed with a house purchase. The other two credit bureaus have my total debt reported as {$350.00}, why does Experian continue to report inaccurate information on my report? This is unacceptable.
