I have sent your company many letters requesting that you investigate a list of inquiries that I believe are reporting incorrectly. Not responding to my requests is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and will not be tolerated.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
Several things happened, but here are a few. PayPal charged me fees for insurance or some sort of security plan multiple times. I personally dont know how many time they charged me but I received a refund for one charge, but not sure about others. I is so complicated because they charged me for this several times. I observed it this month. I never subscribed to any insurance plans. I noticed one of these unauthorized charges on my statement, canceled it, and got a refund. 

There are other unauthorized charges by PayPal, but I dont have time to go through all of them. My main concern is that PayPal enrolled and charged me for something I never subscribed to. Interestingly, you dont even receive a notification when PayPal does it. This means that if someone is not observant of these kinds of plans they never subscribed to, they can lose money on this even when they dont want it. I was smart enough to look at my statements, so I canceled it, but what about people who dont look at their statements at all? 

By charging multiple amounts like {$3.00} without my choice and permission, PayPal is scamming its customers. If they charged it to me, they are likely doing it to thousands or millions of other credit card customers. So they are making millions of dollars from this scam. 

They charged me for other random stuff too like I dont remember but something like a overdraft fees even when I paid on time. They refunded overdraft fees when I pointed its wrongfully charged. Imagine if I am not an observant person PayPal would rip me off. This type of wrong charges dont happen with other cards I have. Something is off with PayPal card services.

PayPal is practicing illegal and unethical tactics. They need to stop. They dont have a dispute option on the app, and calls have long wait times to fix problems. I have many other credit cards, but none of them ever charged me for fraudulently for services I never subscribed. I filed some complaints against them to dispute transactions, and they temporarily fixed it, but after some time, without any notifications, they charged me the disputed payment again. I am not able to read my past statements because they are not loading in the app. PayPal is a monopoly standing on pillars of greed beyond ethics.

Complaint narrative:
I am in a program in school called XXXX and we raise livestock and take them to fairs and then eventually auction them off. On Wednesday XX/XX/year> I received my check from the XXXX XXXX XXXX which is where i auctioned my livestock animal off at. I have never had a bank account so that same day i decided to open an account with Chase in order to cash this check. So i did that and i had a hold on my money for about 2 weeks and i thought nothing of it. Well the next day i got a message from chase telling me that my account was restricted due to suspicious activity and that i had to take action immediately or else my account would be closed. So thats exactly what i did, that same day i went to my local Chase bank and i talked to a bank-teller and they pit me on the phone, the person on the phone said that i needed to provide a number that they could verify this check with. I provided several numbers and with each number i gave them they said they could not verify with it because the phone number was not in their system. I tried for weeks before they eventually closed my account on XX/XX/year>. As of XX/XX/year> I still have not gotten a cashiers check or anything related to my money so I decided to call Chase and they said that they are still going to hold my money until i am able to verify it. I tried to give them one more phone number as a last resort and they hung up on me. The phone number i gave them was the owner of the bank account which the check was written from and they still said that they can not verify it. I am fed up and i want my money that i worked so hard for.

I spent over an hour shopping, just to get to the checkout XXXX and find out that my financial institution ( Discover Bank ) was in the middle of an incident and would not allow any transactions. They had no estimated time for resolution, and no solution for completing my payment. My funds were completely inaccessible with no warning, no funds availability, no incident disclosure, no remedy, nothing. This is completely unacceptable for a large financial institution, they should be fined and reimburse their customers for such problems. We waited over an hour at the store, just to walk out looking like scammers because we couldn't pay.
