Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
What happened? 
While reviewing my credit report, I noticed an account from Discover Bank ( Account # : XXXX ) that is currently reporting on both XXXX and XXXX as an Authorized User account. This account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX, but I want to make it clear that I was never notified, nor did I authorize anyone to add me as an authorized user to this account. 

I have no relationship with the primary account holder of this Discover Bank account, and I never received any communication or gave verbal/written permission to be added. This appears to be a clear case of mistaken identity, unauthorized activity, or fraud. 

Although the account is being reported as Pays as agreed, the recent XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX late payments in XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX are inaccurately reflecting on my credit and are causing significant harm to my credit profile, emotional distress, and delays in credit opportunities with other lenders. 

This is extremely troubling as I take my credit and identity protection seriously, and this false reporting is negatively impacting my personal and financial well-being.
