Sub-issue: Overdrafts and overdraft fees

Complaint:
My husband and I have been with Chase bank a few years. I admit we have had some overdrafts but when my husband lost his job and we longer had his direct deposits things crumbled before we knew it we probably owed hundreds if not thousands in overdraft fees. To top it off when we got our stimulus it put our account in the positive because we had around {$900.00} overdrawn. Then they credited us {$700.00} but then took it out again a month later. We did not receive any letter or correspondence on what we get were doing. Thankfully we didnt overdraft again but i promise you that was there plan. I do not remember signing anything to opt in to overdraft protection. Please take a look into this no telling how much money they have made of of us.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: AZ
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems
Sub-issue: Other problem

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2018, my account at Synchrony Bank was taken over by someone calling Synchrony Bank Customer Service by telephone. Because the telephone number the person called from did not match the number of record, the person was challenged to give my mother 's maiden name for identification. After the person gave the correct response, Synchrony Bank Customer Service allowed the person to change my mailing address and my mother 's maiden name. The person then proceeded to charge {$8600.00} in fraudulent charges at a California music store. 

On XX/XX/2018, I received a fraud alert from Synchrony Bank. When I called the Synchrony Bank Fraud Department, my identity could not be verified because I was told my mother 's maiden name was incorrect. As a result, it took several days for Synchrony to recognize me as the victim of fraud and take action.

Ultimately all issues regarding the account takeover and fraudulent charges were resolved except one : the use of my mother 's maiden name for account security. I alerted Synchrony to the fact that it is relatively easy to find someone's mother 's maiden name in this age of online ancestral records and that the exact same thing can happen again as long as Synchrony solely uses mother 's maiden name for identication.

State: TX
Product: Credit card or prepaid 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:
When filing a chargeback legally the creditor must acknowledge your complaint, in writing, within 30 days after receiving it, unless the problem has been resolved. While Chase does send a letter for every chargeback submitted, they are far from letters acknowledging the dispute. Quite often the letters acknowledging the dispute have no information identifying which transaction or dispute they are actually acknowledging. Furthermore, during the course of the investigation, they will send out generic requests for more information without identifying the dispute or charge they are requesting more information on. Thus they are not acknowledging or fully and fairly investigate the disputed charge on my bill. I've attached a few examples I've received.

2 ) If my original loan contracts can be produced to me : my account is currently " on hold.

Further, XXXX XXXX is not honoring their contract with me to provide me adequate measures for loan repayment. If my original loan documents can be produced by XXXX XXXX, then XXXX XXXX needs to provide me with responsible service and acceptable means for loan repayment.

I asked for my call to be escalated to a supervisor and spoke with XXXX. He informed me that all required information had been submitted and that he would escalated my case for a decision and call me back on Friday on XX/XX/2018. I never heard from XXXX.
