Sub-issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint:
Bank Of America XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$3200.00} and was paid via XXXX. XXXX transportation tried to make a false claim for {$3000.00} to get money back that he sent me and was denied because Bank of America was able to find that he authorized the XXXX  payment. Now in XXXX, XXXX Transports submitted another claim for {$3200.00} which resulted in a hold being placed on my account for the amount of {$3200.00} even though he was already denied in XXXX for authorizing the payment since they found proof that he received and authorized the verification codes sent to his phone to send me the {$3200.00} payment. I have received false information from numerous agents. One agent told me his claim was going to be denied and they were going to release the hold today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) only to see the hold posting on my account as ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). The next agent stated that his claim was successful and the only thing I can do is take legal action, and the last agent I spoke to stated that even though the amount posted, it still is under review and will most likely get denied once they find out that he authorized the payment using verification codes sent to his phone. I don't know which agent is correct which is frustrating and since they already proved that he did authenticate the XXXX  payment in XXXX, I need Bank of America to release the hold on my account immediately! This is negligence on Bank of Americas part to let a fraudulent claim go through to put a hold on my account since he was already denied and sent verificaiton codes to his phone to pay me for the XXXX!

Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
When I left XXXX University in XX/XX/XXXX I had a balance of {$6200.00} in which I was making payments up until XX/XX/XXXX with a remaining balance of {$4200.00} when I went back to school at the University of Florida. I made one more payment at XX/XX/XXXX to drop the balance at {$4000.00}. From my understanding as long as I am in school at a part time capacity or better and after graduation I have a 6 month grace period. I recently discovered that my credit score got affected negatively in XXXX of XXXX so I asked for my credit report in which it showed that XXXX XXXX reported to XXXX, XXXX, and Experian that my account was delinquent. I've contacted them on 3 separate occasion trying to settle/dispute this account in which I was made to pay {$300.00} on XX/XX/XXXX which they never explained that the account was active again but I was told on 2 other occasion that this was still delinquent because it was past due 90 days and it was suppose to be in the delinquent department which they refuse to give the number for. Now I called again today and was told that the account is not delinquent.

My complain is with the action they took they have damaged my credit score significantly tha
t it dropped over 200 points. I have never received any type of communication from them either mail, phone calls, or email and I was told that they have tried reaching me with all of this but I have never even received a voice mail. Upon receiving my credit report I see that they have been billing me from XXXX and from my understanding I have a 6 month grace period upon graduating from school which I graduated in XX/XX/XXXX. I wasn't even given a 6 month grace period on top of the fact that they never sent any type of communication to me. 

I understand that I owe the loan but the way they handled the matter and destroyed my credit score is what I'm fighting for. I want them to remove the negative notes they sent to XXXX, Experian, and XXXX  and fix my credit score. I have a attached a copy of my credit report showing that they have started billing me 1 month after graduation without any communication. This is not fair practice from a financial institution and is a irresponsible actions that can cause possibly not getting a job, can't find a place to stay, or can't get a loan for a home because they ruined my credit.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: WA
Product: Credit card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I purchased an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$490.00}. With another product on the same bill, my total came to {$520.00}. The other product was satisfactory, but the aforementioned XXXX XXXX was defective upon arrival. 

Immediately after receiving the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I noticed it was non-functional right out of the box. I made diligent efforts to troubleshoot the product as per the owner 's manual but to no avail. 

Given that the product was not operational, I initiated a dispute with PayPal under the reference XXXX. After an extensive wait and multiple communications, the merchant proposed that I could return the defective product, but the cost of return shipping would be my responsibility. Considering the substantial weight and size of the product, the XXXX shipping label would cost nearly as much as the product 's original price. I reached out to the merchant to inquire if they would cover the return shipping, but I did not receive any response. 

Given the lack of resolution through PayPal and the merchant, I approached my credit card issuer, Synchrony Bank, to request a chargeback of {$490.00}, citing the reason as " Defective Product Received. '' Initially, the bank issued a temporary chargeback while they commenced their investigation. However, to my dismay, the chargeback was reversed in the merchant 's favor on XX/XX/XXXX. 

One of the pivotal reasons I opted to purchase this product online was due to the assurances provided by PayPal 's XXXX XXXX and the protective measures that come with credit card transactions. I had an inherent belief that these mechanisms would offer a safety net, ensuring my interests were safeguarded. I find it deeply concerning that despite these multiple layers of supposed protection, I find myself in this prolonged and arduous situation. 

I'd like to emphasize that over my tenure as a cardholder with Synchrony Bank, I've made transactions totaling more than {$10000.00}. Initiating chargebacks is not a habitual or recurrent action on my account. I've always approached my transactions responsibly, and I genuinely anticipated that the protections, especially in rare circumstances like these, would function seamlessly for a loyal and consistent customer like myself. Instead, I've been subjected to an extended waiting period, had to escalate the issue multiple times, and navigate a maze of processes, all for a matter that I believed was straightforward and should have been resolved in my favor from the onset.

I XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX are glad to hear XXXX XXXXo festing up about the scam conducted against me by XXXX XXXX his family and supporters are truly a nightmare over a decade of major frauds and he slipping through the system. Your letter dated XX/XX/XXXX are a sign that this will soon be resolved but let it be known and factually clear that you employer XXXX came across to me as very honest person and she said that YES THIS IS YOUR LOAN BUT THERE IS ANOTHER NAME HERE XXXX XXXX. You can always play it for the CFPB to hear that I am giving all facts no lies. 

A huge problem is they were able to steal my claims including the OCC as I am the guy from XXXX XXXX XXXX with the trust account and appears my resolution with XXXX XXXX  got stolen from me. Unfortunately the XXXX have went to everyone judges, police and brokers saying he conducted this loan with XXXX XXXX without years and years not clearing this up and i suffered from. Then XX/XX/XXXX upon my leaving out the very next day i came back to finish moving and he and XXXX XXXX refused to let me in to get my other items. I had a brand new washer, dryer, microwave, stove and refrigerator and were locked out by them and i walked away from this denying me that they did. 

Then in XX/XX/XXXX he started an action in court an XXXX saying I were threatening he and his family. I SWEAR TO GOD THAT WHEN HE STARTED THESE LIES THAT I WERE THREATENING HIM I HAD NOT SEEN HIS FACE SINCE XX/XX/XXXX UNTIL AT THE XXXX HEARING SINCE HE HAD MOVED IN MY HOUSE IN XX/XX/XXXX AND JUST SEEMS UNREAL HE COULD HAVE DONE THIS. 

PLEASE NOTIFY THE XXXX POLICE WHOM HE CONSTANTLY TOLD THEM THAT HE BOUGHT THE HOUSE FROM XXXX XXXX FOR XXXX, A LIE. 

THE FEMALE DETECTIVE THE FIRST TO HAVE THE INVESTIGATION CASE TOLD ME, IT IS HIS HOUSE AND HE BOUGHT IT FROM XXXX XXXX FOR XXXX.
