Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have XXXX credit cards with Discover. I signed up with Discover many years ago because they marketed a feature of " online privacy protection '' where Discover supposedly works to eliminate people-search sites that exposes your personal information. I signed up with Discover thinking that they would get rid of my personal information from such sites but when I called I was told a different story. I was misled into thinking that Discover would help me remove or opt out and send a request about my personal information to people search sites but Discover used misleading and deceptive tactics to entice to apply for the credit cards where in reality they don't do anything to get rid of customer personal information. In XXXX I called Discover asking them why if they submitted opt-out requests to all these people-search sites months ago, then why my information was still there and same sites were six months later or years. I was told that I have to contact the websites and put the request to opt out myself and have my personal information removed. I was told Discover does not do anything and is just a list for my information to take action. I was confused and scammed by Discover. All this time I was thinking they were working for me to get rid of my personal information form all these people search sites but in reality nothing was being done by Discover. It was just a deceptive tactic for customers to apply for their credit cards.The same sites appear on Discover credit card website under online privacy protection but nothing changes. Same sites such as XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX etc appear under my profile for years and nothing changes. Is misleading and Discover is not doing nothing to help the customer.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: CAINE & WEINER COMPANY, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I received an alert that a negative account record had been added to my credit report. After investigating, I discovered that Caine & Weiner had placed a collection account on my credit file on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX. I contacted Caine & Weiner and informed them that the account did not belong to me and that I had never had any business dealings with XXXX. 

I also emphasized that I reside in a different state and have never lived at the address associated with the account. Caine & Weiner refused to provide me with information about the account over the phone. A XXXX  promised to send me proof of the debt to the address I provided. I also contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX, who verified that I did not have an account with them and stated that they had never provided any information about me to Caine & Weiner. 

I followed up with Caine & Weiner via phone on XX/XX/year>, to inquire about the promised information. I was told that I would need to speak with XXXX. To date, I have not received the proof that the XXXX at Caine & Weiner stated would be sent to me. I believe Caine & Weiner illegally obtained my personal information ( such as my birthdate and social security number ) to fraudulently place the false record on my credit file. 

This inaccurate collection notice has caused me significant financial and emotional distress.
