Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (MN)

Decision to pay off balance. On XX/XX/XXXX went into online account to check balance so I would have correct balance due. 
Caught off guard because the balance was so high, which I looked at the only correspondence from company regarding my account. I only get statements online, no emails, text messages, or mail. 
The statement showed ending XX/XX/XXXX where the balance was at almost {$2400.00}, with a notation saying promotional period will be ending shortly ( I had believed promotional period would end in XXXX ). 
Found out during conversation with companies customer service that the total balance ( which was about {$2400.00} ) now had the total interest ( 32.99 % ) of about {$1600.00} added onto on balance. Company did this on XX/XX/XXXX when they said promotional period ended. 
Looked at next statement ( that is only provided online, which I had never looked at, only making all necessary payments online ). 
XXXX statement showed additional interest charged adding almost an additional {$150.00} to balance, now bringing total due over {$4000.00}. Figures are not exact, but approximate since I didn't know if I was to download all statements. I have always made monthly payments, trying to make payments a little more. 
But no other form of communications ( email, texts, letters, etc ) were provided that promotional period was ending ( except in a note on online statement ) helping me as a great citizen who pays her bills! 
I communicated all information to the company that on XX/XX/XXXX I was going into my account to pay, in full, my balance due of about {$2400.00}. I informed them I thought promotional period ended in XXXX and that is why I planned to pay balance in full. I actually begged and pleaded to eliminate interest and I would pay immediately. They refused. Talked to management and was told that the COMPUTER would not allow that. 
Was shocked that a computer dictated how a good paying customer, could be denied the common courtesy to eliminate interest charges that I know every company could adjust with management approval. Now this will effect and seriously hurt my credit score which has always been top notch. 
So this company said in a online statement that promotional period would end shortly ( no actual date or month was provided as far as I know ) which a date on statement said XX/XX/XXXX. Then on XX/XX/XXXX when attempt to pay balance in full was made is when I saw the whole promotional period interest was added. Next payment was due XX/XX/XXXX with additional interest of about {$150.00} was added. 
Called company immediately and was told the interest was added on XX/XX/XXXX. I would have paid balance immediately if they would have somehow disclosed the dates. Please contact me for additional information please. 
Thank you

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

I am writing to inform you that I have recently received the results of the investigation into the inaccuracies on my credit report, conducted by your agency. Despite my previous disputes and the legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and other applicable federal laws to ensure accurate and timely reporting, your agency has failed to acknowledge the inaccuracies present in my credit report. 

Your refusal to correct these inaccuracies has resulted in significant damage to my financial reputation, causing me substantial emotional distress and financial harm. I want to make it explicitly clear that I am not willing to tolerate these injustices any longer. 

I am left with no choice but to pursue legal action against your agency for the damages caused to my reputation. This letter serves as formal notice of my intent to sue under the provisions of the FCRA ( 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 4 ) ( b ), 15 USC 1681b ( a ) ( c ) ( 2 ), 15 USC 1681q, 15 USC 1681n ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), 15 USC 6821 ( a ) ( 1 ) ), and any other applicable federal laws. I believe your agencys actions are not only in violation of the FCRA but also constitute a willful disregard for my rights as a consumer. 

I demand that your agency rectify the inaccuracies on my credit report immediately and provide me with written confirmation of the corrections made. Additionally, I expect your agency to compensate me for the damages incurred due to your inaccurate reporting, including but not limited to, loss of credit opportunities, emotional distress, and legal fees associated with this matter. 

I am giving your agency a final opportunity to rectify this situation without litigation. I expect a response within 15 days from the date of this letter, confirming the correction of the inaccuracies and outlining the steps taken to prevent such errors in the future. Failure to respond within the specified timeframe will leave me with no alternative but to pursue legal action without further notice. 

Please consider this matter seriously, as the consequences of your agencys actions have had a severe impact on my life. I look forward to a swift resolution to this matter.
