Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: AZ
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
In XXXX the Care Credit company upgraded my card to a XXXX. I did n't have a balance on the card at that time but used it that month. When the bill came I accidentally paid the old card. They were very helpful and took the past due amount off and explained that the old card should have been closed and funds applied to new card. In XXXX I got 2 bills, one for each card and it showed I owed XXXX on old card so I paid it and XXXX on new card. This month I get 2 bills again stating that I am past due on the old card but the new card shows both the payments I sent. They insist that my bank returned the money and that it was n't paid. After over an hour and 5 different people they agreed to waive the interest charge, move the money from new card to old to make it a XXXX balance. They did take the fees off but never moved the money. If I pay the card I know that the money will be transferred to new card and we will start this battle again. Now I am emailing back and forth and they are once again telling me the charge was rejected by the bank. Worst case of customer service I have ever had. The bill is due in 2 days so I guess I will pay it again but this should n't have been such a big hassle. It clearly shows on my new account two payments so why ca n't they just fix it.
