Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: TX
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Getting a credit card
Sub-issue: Card opened as result of identity theft or fraud

Complaint:
In XXXX of XXXX  a credit card was opened with asynchrony bank in my name. 
The account was not opened by me and synchrony has confirmed that no ID was verified when the account was opened in person. 
A fraud claim was opened in XXXX of XXXX. It was reopened once they received my documentation regarding the dispute. 
I provided them with the information for the individual who I believe is responsible. A prior tenant who has since abandoned the property and blocked all communication with no forwarding info. 
Despite many months of follow up, all documentation and providing statements they requested the claim remains unresolved. In addition to a mysterious second charge since the initial opening purchase which they can not tell me what it is for, the company continues to place collection calls and place delinquent payment notices on my credit report despite repeatedly telling me that I am not required to pay while it is in investigation status. 

Synchrony refuses to bring this claim to resolution and allow me to speak with the fraud investigators to bring this to a close. 

I believe they are in direct violation of their own resolution policies and this case should be dismissed immediately.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, IA XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Dear CFPB, I have been disputing with Equifax for over 7 months now trying to remove some illegal and unauthorized inquiries from my credit report. All I get in response is The information you disputed has been received. The results are : Inquiries are a factual record of file access and will remain on the Equifax Credit File two years from the reported date of the inquiry but what if those inquiries are illegal and unauthorized? Dont inquiries need to be verified just like accounts? I know that the inquiries werent verified because of the time frame from when they received my disputes and their reply back, it is like 3 days, too quick for verifying data, to me. 

That being said let me say I want the following inquiries deleted from my credit report for a few violations that Equifax has committed. I want Equifax to delete these inquiries for violation because they ( Equifax ) are still continuing to report these inquiries without ever verifying them in the last 7 months and I want Equifax to delete these inquiries for violation because these inquiries obviously do not meet the FCRA guidelines of having a FIRM offer of credit, employment, insurance or a court order. 

The following is a list of inquiries that need to be deleted from my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX XXXX # XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX SXXXX XXXX # XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX  XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Again here are the violations being committed by Equifax when they dont delete the inquiries above in the list : - They ( Equifax ) are continuing to report these unverified, illegal and unauthorized inquiries without ever verifying them. 

- These inquiries do not meet the FCRA guidelines of having a FIRM offer of credit, employment, insurance or a court order. 

- Failing to provide documentation and method ( s ) of verification when asked for within the 30 day time allotted window ( see letter dated XX/XX/XXXX and letters dated XX/XX/XXXX ). 

- Failure to do an investigation and an independent re-investigation ( see Letter dated XX/XX/XXXX ). 



Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
