Issue: Closing your account — Company closed your account
Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Discover card member since XXXX. 

On Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX I received an email from Discover informing me they had closed my account which was in perfect standing with a XXXX  balance. They provided three reasons which included : Inactivity on your account ( s ) % of balances to credit limits is too high on revolving accounts Proportion of loan balances to loan amounts is too high I believe they closed the account due to inactivity since I haven't used the card after paying off a balance transfer last year of approx. {$7000.00}. However, regardless of the reason, I find it completely inhumane that a company would do something like this during these unprecedented times. I shared that when I called the company on Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX to discuss my options. I expressed I found it extremely disturbing they would do such a thing during this pandemic. I also shared that I believed they closed my account to minimize their risk because of the pandemic. What if I needed this lifeline during these times for me or my child? Not to mention how it will impact my credit in the event I need to pursue other options. 

The lady I spoke to was apologetic and said there was nothing the company could do. Their agreement states they can close an account at any time. She suggested I apply again to Discover. I didn't understand this reasoning since they just closed my account. I realized I wasn't going to get a resolution from the call, so thanked her and hung up. That's when I looked up how to file a complaint against Discover.

I want to close by saying that I find it utterly appalling that Discover would treat their customers this way during these times when so many other companies are sending emails to ask how they can help. Is Discover helping other customers? If so, am I being discriminated against?

Contacted National Credit systems multiple times in regard to this amount. The amount they are stating I owe is XXXX.

I even said I have no problem paying a debt I owe however, the Management of this company is doing everything possible to instead report an inaccurate debt. 

Instead of responding accurately to my second CFPB complaint with the updated documents per their request. They flagged the complaint as duplicate vs updating the correct amount. The day after they send out a letter stating they are reporting the XXXX. Dollars even though they are aware the amount being collected is inaccurate. 

Ive also sent the requested documentation via mail as well. This company is knowing inaccurately reporting information.

Disputing my information.
