Complaint narrative:
Time has already passed but up until now, I havent heard any kind of response from the 3Credit Bureaus which made me decide to seek assistance from you. They have shown negligence and an act of refusal of complying with my request.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
My deceased husband had a Discover card in his name. I was unaware of the card, was never an authorized user, nor did i formally agree to be responsible for this card.. He died intestate, in great debt, and because we were separated and lived in separate locations since XXXX it was quite a feat to deal with is finances. I notified all known creditors of his death and the majority were gracious when i explained that i had requested an autopsy and therefore any funds that i may receive as his surviving spouse would not come until approximately six months. Discover called my home at XXXX every week and Saturdays and called up until XXXX XXXX at night. The harassment was so great until i took to XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I spoke with the company and they requested proof that i did not live with my husband so i sent electric, gas, mortgage receipts, and other documents they requested for me to prove i was not aware of or responsible for the debt. i told them that there was not estate. They harassed me, invaded my privacy and to add insult to injury, they reported me to the credit bureaus as default on a debt and a 1099c for XXXX. I spoke with a representative to question why this action was taken even though it was not my debt and i was not required to pay it ; the customer service clerk said they were going to continue to attempt to either collect debt or charge me because my husband had used an account with my name on it to pay the bill. my name actually was initially on a XXXX XXXX XXXX account when were younger. However, my name was not on his checks and my checking account was at XXXX saving bank for several years. I was not aware that my name was still on that account.. Not sure if i was still an authorized user. I did not have a debit account for that XXXX account, and my name was not on his checks. Discover has ruined my credit and now jeopardizes me on my income taxes for federal and the state of VA. I am at my wits end and they won't listen. The tactics they are using are severe and harassing. Please help.
