Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: TX
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: Store credit card
Issue: Getting a credit card
Sub-issue: Sent card you never applied for

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXXXXXX XXXX central time, I submitted a credit application through the XXXXXXXX XXXX retail store smartphone app with Synchrony Bank. 

I was not presented with the terms of credit that I was approved for and an account was open in my name without my permission or authorization. 

I immediately called synchrony Bank and asked them not to process the credit account opening and they told me that they would not do that.. the account was opened and that all I could do was close the account. 

I was very unsatisfied with the terms that were only presented to me after the application was processed for 29.99 % rate and only a {$1200.00} credit line. But I was not provided with a way to decline the offer of credit. 

This is an unfair deceptive act or practice ( UDAAP ) because I was not presented with clear terms for the credit account I applied for, n was I asked to accept the offer of credit prior to the account being opened in my name. 

I asked a gentleman who was named XXXX who accepted my call as 'the manager ' to cancel the opening of the account for the reasons stated above and he would not. I asked him to send me a letter proving the account was closed and he said he would send a letter. I also asked XXXX to file a formal complaint in synchrony bank 's complaint management system and I do not believe that occurred. 

XXXX was combative and did not assure me that there was a way to cancel the account without it being authorized by me. 

He was rude and seemed agitated that I was dissatisfied.

State: WI
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting your free annual credit report

Complaint:
On XX/XX/21 I went to purchase a vehicle from XXXX. I lifted a freeze from my credit report in order to do so. XXXX XXXX XXXX was able to access my credit report but because of an extended fraud alert on my report they needed to verify that it was me who was indeed trying to get credit. Experian was unable to provide correct credentials to the bank so the bank stopped the process of the request. 

Experian website does not work as intended. It is a bundle of frustration. Does not allow login, would not allow getting a credit report, would not allow communication. In this time and age everything happens within seconds, Experian is forcing me to contact them via mailbox. There is no email, no chat, no live person on phone i can contact. I resent the fact that it is not of my own choosing but they affect my financial affairs and very incompetently at that. I wish I could just choose not to have anything to do with experian. 

My sentiments reflect that of millions. This is late stage capitalism at best.

As it is verified by the US Bankruptcy Court Of Kansas. I in fact have attached proof from the US Bankruptcy Court Of Kansas, stating that they do not report to any of the credit bureaus. So I am filing a complaint on behalf of myself, as they either have sent me a stall letter or have said it has been validated with the US Bankruptcy Courts Of Kansas.

FOLLOW UP. I FILED A COMPLAINT 30 DAYS AGO STILL NO RESULT. THIS IS UNDER FEDERAL LAW, 
YOU HAVE 30 DAYS TO COMPLETE YOUR INVESTIGATION. THESE NEGATIVE ITEMS ARE HIGHLY DAMAGING MY CREDIT REPORT AND CREDITWORTHINESS. 


On 10/10/2023, I wrote to you requesting an investigation into items that I believed were fraud, 
inaccurate, and falsely reporting. To this date only response that I have received was computergenerated letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your 
opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a 
stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I 
believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.
I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint 
with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.
I further remind you that, as in White v. Experian Information Solutions, 993 F. Supp. 2d 1154 - Dist. 
Court, (CD California 2014); you may be liable for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) by 
recklessly failing to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the accurate reporting of debts discharged 
in bankruptcy and by refusing to adequately investigate consumer disputes regarding the status of 
discharged accounts.
I have requested that all NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS provide proof 
of alleged items. I request to be provided with specifically the original application, contract, note, or 
another instrument bearing my signature.
In addition, any the contract signed between NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT 
COLLECTORS & the original creditor, notarized and sworn under penalty and perjury NON CREDITORS, 
COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS ability to collect this alleged debt.
I request this under 15 U.S. Code  1692g - Validation of debts. If information is not provided or the 
false reporting isnt removed; as in Wenger v. Trans Union Corp., No. 95-6445 (C.D.Cal. Nov. 14, 1995), 
you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 
100% accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is 
completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be reinvestigated.
