Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: VA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
In XX/XX/2022, I contacted SYNCB/Paypal credit card and requested to close my accounts, which were in great standing. I paid whatever balance was on the cards and had them closed. In XXXX, I received a negative alert via my XXXX credit monitoring,  letting me know I was 30 days past due on an account. When I looked at my credit report, the negative reporting with a past due balance was from Payal. I immediately contacted Paypal and questioned the reporting. I was told that a charge was applied to my Paypal account AFTER the account was closed. I am confused as to why a charge was approved on a closed account. It would have been easier to deny the charge so that the merchant would contact me instead of approving a charge when the relationship between myself and Paypal no longer existed. I also did not have access even to pay the Paypal account. After speaking to the representative, I was told that the reporting would be removed. I was able to make the payment, and I thought all was well. A few weeks later, this again showed up on my credit report. 

This reporting has questioned my creditworthiness and is now creating issues with accounts I have had great relationships. I have been denied business credit and had credit limits decreased. It is now impacting my ability to sustain my way of life. The most upsetting part is that this was a closed account. There is no justification or rationale for why anything should have been approved.
