They have not done this to me, no CC company ever has enrolled me without my permission. Are you sure you didn't accidentally accept it online in your profile??

Payment protection cost more per month that I pay in interest to them all year. And trying to contact a human being at Discover to fix the problem, is near impossible. Check your statement often. Bankers, like lawyers are nothing but liars and cheats.
That's disturbing...this is the first I've heard of this. I suppose it could have been an error, but you should be able to call and get it fixed without so much trouble. I admit that since I PIF I really don't check things like this...I guess I should...
. Good luck in having this issue addressed. Happy New Year!!!

I agree: the customer service reps are friendly and professional, but altogether useless to fix unusual errors. I have spoken with five different people about my new account because Discover failed to apply the 0% APR that I signed up for during promo. *I just realized I did accept the 24% APR. Oh well* The case was even escalated to headquarters they claim, who in turn said it looks like I misunderstood the terms (how can anyone mistake 24% for 0% APR is beyond me). I just got off the phone for the last time. Closing Discover *yes, still* and have opened Chase Freedom in its place. So, OP, yes beware of Discover's "errors" and keep close watch on your account.
