XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX PLEASE DELETE!!!!! 
XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX PLEASE DELETE!!!!! 
It has come to my attention that your bureau continues to report multiple fraudulent accounts on my credit report, despite my diligent efforts to address this issue. I am bewildered as to why your bureau is not taking similar action to rectify this blatant error. The continued reporting of these fraudulent accounts is not only damaging to my credit score but also exacerbates the emotional and financial distress caused by identity theft.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/18 I had a couch delivered that was damaged but didn't know until after delivery was made. The very same day I went to store I bought it and told them. They initiated a ticket to have a technician come to the house. A month later still broken couch so I initiated a dispute with Diacover card for a product that was not as promised. Discover started an investigation. Meanwhile I was told by the company XXXX XXXX I could not return the item but only exchange it. Technician finally came and couch not repairable. I did not want an exchange as I didn't want the couch in chance it would be damaged again. They offered me a reselection. I went to the store to find something. I couldn't find anything else so I called the company again and told them. XXXX XXXX said too bad basically and I had no other choice. I called Discover to let them know. Then a day later I found an item online I was willing to settle for. I called XXXX XXXX and no call back. I called again the next day and no call back. I finally got a hold of someone else only to be told I can't exchange or reselect anymore. It was closed. I contacted discover and they assured me the case I had was still open. I got the resolve back and they sided in favor with the merchant so now I have a {$2000.00} broken couch and no ability to return, exchange or reselect something else. Discover just told me I had to resolve it with other merchant and XXXX XXXX refuses to do so. Discovers policy is clear it says a dispute can be done if a product or service was not as promised. XXXX XXXX admitted the couch is not repairable but Discover still sided on their behalf. Meanwhile it has been XXXX  months with a broken couch in our home. Please help me resolve this. Thank you.

Complaint narrative:
The total amount of money lost was about {$6200.00}. I explained to my bank that the money transferred into my XXXX XXXX had been stolen but they said there was not enough evidence to prove that the money was stolen. Under the assumption that I was in a partnership with someone I met online, he told me he wanted me to learn crypto and he would repay me if any of my money was lost. This began in XXXX XXXX XXXX and was over by XXXX XXXX XXXX. The person who scammed me created arguments until he fully backed out of the conversation, making it impossible for me to transfer my money back into my account.
