Complaint narrative:
Regardless of the multiple written requests, the ITEMS listed below are still reporting on my credit report which is a violation of FCRA. The Bureaus failed to comply with Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time declared by law, they failed to properly investigate the matter by using a third party as their verification provider and have continued reporting the unconfirmed & unverified information. Given all my attempts to address it directly with 3 CREDIT BUREAUS, they are willfully negligent and non-complying with federal statutes & I need this matter handled immediately.

Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan — Installment loan
Issue: Struggling to pay your loan — 
Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: NH

Complaint narrative:
This is a complaint concerning the personal loans I received from Discover. I have always paid payments on time since this loan first started in XXXX. I was able to benefit from their pandemic forbearance program during the Covid disruptions. The scheme was set up in a confusing fashion by Discover Loans, though. Despite the fact that Discover had me signed up for this service, they kept contacting and demanding monthly payments. I asked Discover staff why payments were required even though the loan was in forbearance, and they used a tactic where they passed me from person to person, each of whom gave me different information. This forced me to merely make a payment to be in the clear and to avoid harming my credit. 
They persisted in doing that during the entire epidemic, and in XX/XX/XXXX, even though I was enrolled in the special payment program, they reported me as being 60 days past due. Normal monthly payments had resumed at $ XXXXmonth for more than a year until XX/XX/XXXX, when I enrolled in a program with lower payments that would let me pay $ XXXXmonth for nine months ( Reduced payment program ). Discover continued to call me while I was enrolled in this program and paying the $ 250 monthly payment, demanding the entire amount that they claimed is past due. 
My credit limit was recently reduced by XXXX XXXX on of my credit cards, according to a letter I recently got from the bank due a derogatory remarks on my credit report. When I reviewed my credit reports with the three credit bureaus, I saw that Discover has been reporting my late payments to XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX, respectively. Since enrolling in this reduced payment plan, I have called Discover numerous times to inquire as to why my account is showen that i have fallen behind on my payments and what is happening with this program, as it displays that I am {$1600.00} in arrears while being on a reduced payment plan. Discover never once gave me the correct answer. They either use the transfer to different agents trick, drop the call after telling you they will transfer you, or simply say they have no idea and still demand {$1600.00} or whatever amount they claim is past due. I called a few days ago and was transferred to two different agents. One of them was a manager, and at the end of the call she informed me that she does not have any expertise in personal loans and is only trained in student loans, and she promised to leave a message for someone to call me back. 
Meanwhile, they have destroyed my credit and no one has called, despite the fact that I am paying them monthly on a supposedly reduced payment plan. I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and believe I have been discriminated against and abused because of my age. Most of the time, they are condescending and speak slowly and loudly, with complete disregard for my concerns. In most cases, they hang up without warning.
