I was told that if I did not make my final payment today that the funds I currently paid would be charged as interest towards the original loan and that I would have to pay court fees and attorney costs for the proceedings. I then asked for information regarding their company and how my file ended up in their office. Instead of attempting to help me with this information I was told that I was annoying like a XXXX year old girl or a mosquito. I was also called a terrorist and the gentleman proceeded to ask about my personal details. Such as a vehicle I recently purchased and other personal details in which they should not have access to. I asked if calls were recorded and if I could have a copy and I was told that I was harassing them and that they didnt have to do anything to help me. I have since been repeatedly hung up on when attempting to get information regarding our correspondence.

Company: DISCOVER BANK (CA)

I placed an overseas order for some products I needed on XX/XX/XXXX. The total amount spent with this company was {$370.00}. They were supposed to be shipped and it never takes longer than a month to get stuff from XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX the seller emails me and tells me the warehouse sent me the wrong goods during the shipment. I told them that would not work, I had order 25 of these certain cups for a project. On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted the seller because it had now been two months and I had not received my shipment. The seller lied to me and told me that they had shipped on time and gave me tracking numbers for XXXX and I contacted XXXX and they told me they created a label on XX/XX/XXXX but did not give XXXX the package. They lied and said they shipped on XX/XX/XXXX. So now this was explaining why they were so late. So the seller told me he would refund the items sent by mistake and I told them since I haven't received the order to cancel it. He refused to cancel it. He said after I received the products that they will refund the money for the wrong items sent. I said no, I need 25 of the same cups for a reason and now I only have 15. He then reiterated that the 10 were going to be free and he would return then all of the money of the 15 glowing cups to me as well. So I made other arrangements to fulfill that order on what I needed because he assured me he was refunding it. When I received the cups on XX/XX/XXXX, over two months later, not only did it confirm he sent the wrong cups but he also didn't include the straws I need for the cups. The other two sets were okay. So I requested my money back for the ones he assured me he was refunding and then since I have them, they refused. So since I received the wrong products, I uploaded all of our conversation to Discover and requested the partial money back that they promised me. Discover refuses to back it's customer even though I gave them every statement where he said he would refund my money. Discover should support their customers. I wasn't asking for a full refund, I was asking for what they sent and didn't send that was wrong and what they promised to give back to me.

Wells Fargo attempted to open an account in my name. 

I received a letter in the mail with the subject " your recent online application '' dated XX/XX/2021 and received on XX/XX/2021. 

I never applied for an account. I previously froze my credit at all three bureaus to prevent fraud. 

The letter stated " we were unable to open an account based on the information you provided in your online application '' and prompted me to go to a branch to open it in person. 

Wells Fargo has a history of opening accounts without their customers ' permission. 
The letter seems to be an automated response for them attempting to open an account in my name and having failed.
