Complaint narrative:
This is my final notice regarding your ongoing noncompliance with federal credit reporting laws.

Your violations include : Failure to validate the debt as required under 15 USC 1692g ( Section 809 ( b ) ). 
Continuing communication after a certified cease-and-desist request, violating 15 USC 1692c ( Section 805 ( c ) ).

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a home improvement loan with Discover Home Loans on XX/XX/year>, which was advertised with XXXX closing costs. They verified that I have a good credit score which caused a hard inquiry on my credit report. They verified that I have over 50 % equity in the home. They kept coming up with reasons why they could not offer the loan and gave me short deadlines to respond to their requests. Even though I met all of their criteria, satisfied all of their requirements, the underwriter agreed that I had more than enough equity in my home to secure the loan, and the underwriter agreed that my credit history was good, the loan was denied on XX/XX/year>. The underwriter, XXXX XXXX, stated that the reason for denying the loan was because I had already started construction on the home improvement. He stated that Discover Home Loans wouldn't be able to approve my home improvement loan because they don't have the infrastructure to support it, even though they were told home improvement was the reason for the loan on the application. They told me I could apply again and start the entire process over, causing another hard inquiry on my credit report, after I finished the home improvement project. I suspect that then they would not be able to be classify it as a home improvement loan, and would need to classify it as a debt consolidation loan and charge me a higher interest rate. 

There is either discrimination present after they looked into my identity, a scam to gather my personal information in depth, or a classic bait and switch to a more expensive loan product.
