Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: OH
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
I used to have a WalMart store credit card, issued by Synchrony Bank. I closed that account XX/XX/XXXX and received a confirmation email. I noticed on my XXXX Credit Report ( XX/XX/XXXX ) that the account was reported closed by consumer, but did not see that Synchrony Bank checked my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX. When I checked my XXXX Credit Report on XX/XX/XXXX I noticed that up until XX/XX/XXXX they report the account as ok, and checked my credit report again on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I mailed a written complaint to Synchrony Bank. The Bank responded on XX/XX/XXXX, but no result yet. On XX/XX/XXXX they have sent another letter, asking me for a copy of my credit report. I have mailed that specific page on XX/XX/XXXX. While I am waiting for their response I checked my Credit Report on XX/XX/XXXX and noticed that Sycnhrony Bank has checked my Credit Report again on XX/XX/XXXX, which is before I have sent my first written complaint to them. Therefore they have no legal right to check my Credit Report on the regular basis, or check it at all for that matter. I was willing to wait patiently for the outcome of my complaint, but I have not expected Synchrony Bank to further check my Credit Report after my first letter from XX/XX/XXXX.
My Credit Score on XXXX is currently XXXX points lower than on my other Credit Reports, and that bothers me, although I still have an excellent score.

Complaint:
Within the past couple of years I have had so many issues with the student loan service XXXX. It all began in XX/XX/XXXX. My family had already warned me that I needed to make sure that I filed for a deferment, forbearance, or set up a payment plan because the damage that student loans could do to your credit would be a life changing experience. I began begin contacted via mail in XX/XX/XXXX about my loan payments and I quickly went off the information needed for a deferment/forbearance and mailed it back to XXXX. I never received confirmation that I was approved or denied. The letters stopped and I did n't worry. In XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter informing me that XXXX was reporting me to the credit reporting bureaus because I had passed the 90-day late payment mark. I immediate had them to send the form and again and filed it out and faxed it while on the phone and asked why I had n't received any letters regarding the end of the deferment/forbearance. At the time I was informed by the phone representative that she did not have access to that information but with the forbearance the late-payments would be removed within a year. Since XX/XX/XXXX, I have been told that no such " forgiveness '' exists and I have been told that I was contacted in XX/XX/XXXX via email address that was provided by my school in XXXX. I asked why would they use an old email instead of contacting me via mail when that had always been my preferred form of communication. I was then told by a supervisor in the dispute department that as my loan service provider they had the authority to communicate with me whatever method that they choose. If I never needed to borrow money for school, I would not be in this situation. I was told that there are no options, I can have automatic payments for years and nothing would ever change on my credit and that it is my responsibility to contact them regularly to check on the status of my loans. He then went on to suggest that I just suck it up and deal with the damage toy credit.

Complaint:
I cancelled my extended warranty directly from the company ( XXXX ) on XX/XX/2021. The extended warranty company informed the dealership where I purchased the vehicle and the warranty on XX/XX/2021. The next step is for the dealership to send the refund check to Mazda Financial where I am currently paying for the car and the extended warranty. It has been more than 60 days with no response from the dealership and Mazda Financial is unable to help as well. Essentially I am paying for a product that already has been refunded back on XX/XX/2021.

An investigation was not done with any of these sources.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2021, I initiated a dispute on credit report to the credit bureaus asking if they report bankruptcies to the credit bureaus and I got a letter stating The company that reported the information has certified to XXXX that the information is accurate. To date, I have not heard back for the dispute with the other agencies. How did the credit bureaus verify my bankruptcy as 100 % accurate? I do not believe a fair investigation was conducted according to the 15 USC 1681.

15 USC 1681 section 603 ( 3 ) ( E ) States ; The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. 

The credit bureaus also violated several other of my rights. 

The credit bureaus violated my given rights under 15 USC 1681.

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy.

According to : 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions According to : 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.
