State: MI

Complaint narrative:
On Monday XX/XX/24 I received TWO letters via U.S, Post, from Discover regarding my recent application for their charge card. Both letters stated that since my credit reports were frozen that they could not gain access to my history and therefore could not issue me a card. I purposely unfroze my XXXX XXXX, XXXX and XXXX reports for the duration of time that it would take Discover to gain access to the reports. The credit bureau indicates that Discover did do a hard credit check of my credit history, my credit score is in the XXXX XXXX XXXX  but I only have one credit card and its with XXXX in good standing that I use and pay on time, and rarely leave a balance. Discover has dropped the ball again. They have lied and a check of my credit report will confirm it.
