Complaint:
This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. I am so baffled by this situation. I am not connected to any credit company or any of its kind. I have been reaching out to Transunion, asking them to provide me with legal documents that certify that they have investigated my concerned items lawfully. Nevertheless, my request has been neglected. They have provided ZERO VERIFIABLE PROOF. You are big, XXXX liars! You claimed that you verified these accounts but provided no documents. I haven't heard any response from Transunion and it made me lose my patience. They have violated Sections 605B and are also in breach of Sections 616 & 617 for willfully non-complying and neglecting to adhere to the rules and laws of the FCRA. Moreover, failure to verify, comply, and respond should result in the removal of the items in question. Enclosed here are my FTC report for your reference Below, are the items they should DELETE from my file : XXXX XXXX XXXX Date XXXX Balance : {$0.00}, XXXX XXXX Date XXXX XX/XX/2017 Balance {$63000.00}

Complaint:
I'm concerned that the freeze on my credit report ( or my credit itself ) has been compromised. When I attempted to access my credit report online and was asked about recent accounts ( which I didn't open ), I was told that the information I entered was wrong. I assume that means that there are loans/cards that someone else opened in my name. Can you help me? All three credit bureaus acted like I was a criminal for trying to understand what was going on. 

I finally got through to the FTC, but it was a series of " press this button '' and " I can not understand what you said. '' Please help me.

Complaint:
Every time my mortgage company sells my mortgage it reports to the credit bureaus as a closed account. My credit score drops XXXX to XXXX points every time they do this. It has happened three times this year. I contacted Trans Union to file a dispute about the fact that they are calculating my credit score based on my mortgage company involuntarily selling my mortgage to other mortgage companies. This is not my fault and should not impact my credit score. When the new mortgage reports, my scores do not go back up. Trans Union refused to consider my dispute and hung up on me.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: FL
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: Store credit 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:
I used the " Pay My Provider '' application on the CareCredit.com website, a credit card managed by Synchrony Bank for a service I received on XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX. And two separate charges appeared on my credit card statement for statement closing date XX/XX/XXXX, posted on XX/XX/XXXX. One charge for {$530.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX FL, and another charge of {$430.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX FL. 

However, my medical provider that was supposed to be paid by Care Credit for the procedure I had says they have not received payment from care credit for the charges indicated above and I still have a balance due. 

I sent a certified letter with return receipt which was post marked on XX/XX/XXXX and per certified tracking was received at the address XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX FL XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I expected to be notified in writing within 30 days of Care Credits Billing Error 's receipt of the letter that the dispute had been acknowledged BUT I WAS NOT. Furthermore, I did not receive a notice regarding the resolution to my dispute in writing or otherwise, but I was after 60 days required to continue to make minimum payments. 

I sent electronic correspondence on XX/XX/XXXX through Synchrony Bank 's message center documenting their lack of response to my dispute, along with attachments provided to my from XXXX XXXX XXXX billing department of my patient ledger of all payments made to the account for the service provided to me on XX/XX/XXXX, all of which were paid directly by me and not by Synchrony Bank Care Credit. In response I received on XX/XX/XXXX is that they would use the attachments I provided in their investigation into the dispute. I have not heard back since. 

I have reached out to both XXXX XXXX Billing department and Care Credit to resolve the payment discrepancy between themselves, but each department is pointing me to the other party. In other words Care Credit wants XXXX XXXX to call them and XXXX XXXX wants Care credit to call them. Now I still owe both XXXX XXXX and Care Credit for the same procedure I had completed on XXXX.
