Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (IL)

Dear CFPB, I am contacting you all, because I do not own the Amazon Store Card/Synchrony account that was taken over by Portfolio Recovery. I have been having issues disputing this matter. I decided to contact XXXX XXXX directly and disputed the accounts on the XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX. I understand that COVID had delayed responses, but it should not take 90 days. The turnaround is usually around 30-45 days. When I called on XX/XX/XXXX. I was told that I was not going to be reached until XX/XX/XXXX. I was promised 30 days from XX/XX/XXXX. When I called on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a promise date of XX/XX/XXXX from representative XXXX XXXX It does not sound like a valid investigation turnaround. I received a follow-up letter with proof of ownership of the account. I was sent the final bill. The final bill does not give me clear proof without original beginning documents. I would like to know where the card was sent & payment history. 

I recall being contacted in XXXX. I denied the account then. When reached once the account was taken over, I denied the ownership of the account. I just updated the company with my number for a follow-up call in the last week or so. 

The document that I received from XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX was not viable proof of the debt owed. There are no detailed charges on the document sent. 

After speaking to Synchrony Bank and filing a claim on XX/XX/XXXX, I have been promised investigation results in 7-10 business days and was told that a representative may be giving me a call before the end of the investigation. The first rep I had spoken to is XXXX. I do not recall the 2nd rep. 

Best Regards, XXXX XXXX  XXXX

Issue: Unexpected or other fees — 
Company: Conduent Incorporated (NM)

On or about XX/XX/XXXX, I received my Statement for the debt card in the mail. When I opened the statement I was astonished to find that unauthorized charges had been drawn on my account. I immediately started a fraud claim with EPPICARD case no. XXXX. They told me I was to wait for the forms to fill them out. They gave me a dead line of XX/XX/XXXX, however they mailed it late but I faxed the filed out forms and contacted customer services. The purpose of the late mail was to insure I did not get the forms in time. There is a 10 day window. 

The charges started occurring on or about XX/XX/XXXX. I did not see any charges in the rest of the month of XX/XX/XXXX. The charges were made in XXXX by a company called XXXX in XXXX and a company in XXXX call XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX I have never had a relationship with these companies, I also did not use my card very often as I was saving the amount on the card for an emergency. I would only use sparingly, gas, food, in the XXXX area. 

I sent an itemized list of the charges and the fee 's which were collected by EPPICARD for the international transactions. the total amount I have lost is {$4900.00}. I have also provided affidavits which state I never lost control of the card nor did I authorize any charges. Furthermore I did not have any relationship with the companies who took the money. 

I contacted eppie card on XX/XX/XXXX and talked to their representative who told me the claim of fraud had been denied on XX/XX/XXXX, I had only faxed the forms over on the same day. How did an investigation get done so quickly. 

I recieved a letter on XX/XX/XXXX which stated they did an investigation and determined I had a relationship with the companies who did the fraud. XXXX card allowed successive charges on the same day XXXX over 6 times. XXXX allowed charges over the amount which was in the account and reversed the charge but did nothing to flag the card as it was under attack. 

I have also come to find out it is a habit of eppicard to deny fraud charges and I have viewed several lawsuit. I contacted XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and was told the card number was still active, this was after EPPICARD had allegedly closed the account. XXXX XXXX gave me a reference number for the fraud claim. I was further told it was wellsfargo who was the issuing bank. When I called XXXX they denied having anything to do with EPPICARD. However on the back of the card it states. " this card is issued by XXXX XXXX, XXXX pursuant to license from XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

The terms of service state zero 0 Liability, EPPIECARD calls itself the " BANK '' when in fact the " BANK '' is XXXX. It is my belief, EPPIECARD is purposefully denying claims to accounts which have been compromised in order to profit from it. It is XXXX who insures the lost money, did EPPIECARD put forth a claim with XXXX? or XXXX XXXX? 

EPPICARD has breach the contract of their terms of service agreement.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Old information reappears or never goes away
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

On XX/XX/2021 I notified the credit bureaus that there are some account reporting on my credit report that were the result of someone using my information to open up accounts. The credit bureau 's have removed some fraudulent accounts from my credit report however when I pulled a new credit report and I noticed that the accounts re-appeared. I referred back to the FTC " Guide to assisting identity theft victims '' and it states that I should have received notice 5 days before they added the items back on my credit so it's been re-inserted illegally. I believe the person who has taken my personal information is someone who lived at a previous residence and I am a non confrontational person and I don't want to see anyone in trouble but this account is preventing my fiance and I from purchasing a home so I have taken the time to go to XXXX  and spoke to officer XXXX who advised me to file an FTC Identity Theft Affidavit and obtain as much information as possible from the furnisher so my police report is not vague and so they can complete an investigation which may unfortunately lead to an arrest.

Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Lease
Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease — Problem when attempting to purchase vehicle at the end of the lease
Company: U.S. BANCORP (TN)

US Bank makes it extremely difficult to pay off your lease. 

My lease is ending. I contacted the dealership about trading in on a new lease and was advised that US BANK does not honor the buy out price on a lease when trading into a dealership. I feel this is deceptive and it was not disclosed to me when I leased the vehicle. 

I decided to purchase my vehicle. The rates at US Bank were nearly twice what my credit union offers so I requested pay off documents be sent to me. They arrived in the mail approximately 7 days later and stated the check must be received 10 days after the letter date. This made it impossible to work with my bank to finalize a loan and return a check as I only had 3 days left. I assumed this short date was due to the timing of my next payment so I requested another letter but every letter is dated only 10 days after the day its requested even if the pay off amount doesnt change after that 10 days. US BANK stated theyll accept the amount up to 10 days after but of course my bank will not accept that verbally. Theres no reason they shouldnt be able to date the letter for later. They also listed incorrect tax information on the letter which further delayed the process. See attached for letter dated 10 days after the issue date and the incorrect sales tax info of 9.5 %. Sales takes in Tennessee are 7 % I feel due to high car prices at the moment US Bank has changed their policies on loans to make it more difficult for consumers to purchase or trade in their cars at the end of lease. This is unfair and deceptive.

If I begin repayment, I will be repaying for the rest of my life. While I do not expect to live too much longer, I would love to work this out.

Issue: Getting a credit card — Application denied
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (IL)

I applied for a card with Synchrony Bank to purchase furniture from XXXX to furnish my new home I just purchased on XX/XX/21. When i submitted the application I was provided a message to give them a call and to give them Reference Number : XXXX. I called and the rep stated to upload my ID on a website that was provided to me. The phone got disconnected. 

The website is horrible I took a picture of my IL Drivers license the front 3 times finally it accepted. Then I took a picture of the back once. I was instantly denied. I instantly called back and the rep was like let me talk to the manager, within 2 minutes he's like you're denied. In my mind is how am I denied when I just bought a car ( XXXX XXXX ) {$47000.00} a home {$230000.00}. 

Today I received an email and basically they denied me because they couldn't verify my identity. Today is XXXX XXXX and I wanted to get the sales on the furniture. What's more alarm regarding this shady creditor is they denied me and didn't run my credit, I have no inquiries on either one of my credit bureaus. On top of they don't provide you with a phone number on the letter only to mail them a rebuttal to the letter. 

I called back today and got a nice young lady, I explained what happened and she offer to get me some help. She transferred me to XXXX. I said since I was denied due to my identity can't be verified can I take my credentials inside a VCF and let them send it to you. He stated no and no need to apply again because since there's an application already in they're going to go off of this application. I told him that it didn't make since and I would file a complaint against them and then he asked me to place me on hold. He came back and stated that he gave me some misinformation that I can apply as many times as I'll like. Still shady. I'm making you aware of my experience with Synchrony Bank.
