Consumer complaint received 2023-07-11
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (RI)

I have used specialty credit cards from Synchrony Bank on two occasions : one to purchase XXXX XXXXXXXX and one to purchase a home air conditioning system. Both cards offered 0 % interest for a specified number of months, with typically high CC interest taking effect if the balance was not paid off within the period. This was explained verbally by the air conditioner seller but not explained by the XXXX XXXX  provider. I assume the details were in the fine print of the agreement, which I did not read. Monthly billing statements gave the standard advice that I could save money by paying more than the minimum balance, but made no mention of the risk of high interest or the date when it would be imposed. Since I was aware of the provision and paid off the purchase amount within the stated period, I suffered no loss or damage. However, I firmly believe that many users of this kind of " interest free for XXXX  months '' offer did not understand, or did not remember at the right time, and had to pay high interest they were not expecting.
