Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against Lowe 's Home Improvement in XXXX, Pennsylvania, concerning their failure to issue a refund for a gas dryer that was never installed or left at my residence. On XX/XX/year>, I placed an order for a gas dryer ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX ). The dryer was delivered shortly after ; however, due to technical issues, it could not be installed. 

The store immediately agreed to cancel the order and promptly took the dryer back. Despite this, Lowe 's has refused to remove the charge from my Lowe 's credit card account. I have made multiple attempts to resolve this issue directly with the store, but my efforts have been unsuccessful, and the charge remains on my account. 

I find it unacceptable to be charged for an item that was never left in my possession and was returned to the store immediately. This situation has caused me unnecessary stress and inconvenience, and it represents a clear violation of my consumer rights. 

I am requesting your agency 's assistance in resolving this matter. I urge you to compel Lowe 's to remove the charge from my credit card and ensure that they comply with appropriate consumer protection regulations. Enclosed are copies of all relevant documentation, including the order confirmation and my communications with the store regarding this issue. 

Please let me know if you need any further information from my end. I look forward to your prompt attention to this matter and appreciate your help in bringing it to a resolution. 

Thank you for your assistance.

Complaint narrative:
Requested validation of the debt National Credit Systems is reporting to my credit report but was never sent validation of the debt as entitled to me by the FCRA. Was told I had to complete a form and file a report with law enforcement. This company has been unable to provide any written agreement that includes my written signature and consent to access my credit report or private information in the first place. This company continues to post negative information to my XXXX report only. XXXX and XXXX have completed investigations on my behalf and confirmed this company is unable to validate the debt. National Credit System continues to report to my XXXX report regardless of my rights and requests for validation. 

Attached is a screenshot and pdf attachment that includes National Credit System 's latest response to me. Also attached the initial letter I sent to them detailing the inaccuracies and errors on my credit report. 

Please help to end these abusive practices and remove this account from my XXXX credit report immediately.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Illinois [ XXXX ] XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Pennsylvania XXXX XXXX Consumer Dispute Center po box XXXX XXXX, Texas XXXX Equifax Consumer Disputes Center XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Georgia XXXX Dear Sir/Madam, The CRAs have a grave responsibility to ensure the accuracy and fairness of my consumer report. Despite multiple dispute attempts the CRA 's continue to incorrectly report inaccurate and misleading information to my consumer report, specifically the listed charged-off account ; XXXX XXXX. The account was CLOSED XX/XX/XXXX and is actively reporting " last activity '' of XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 

This information is in direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and is adversely affecting my credit profile. The continued reporting of this account as charged off with a remaining balance is not only inaccurate but also misleading. The Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ) clearly defines a charged-off account as one with no remaining balance, in addition too, becoming TAXABLE INCOME to the consumer. To which I have never received any 1099C. The CRA 's action in reporting this account with a balance constitutes a violation of the FCRA by providing false, misleading, and unverifiable information. 

Furthermore, the inclusion of these accounts on my credit report without my explicit consent is a clear violation of my privacy rights. The FCRA mandates that consumer reporting agencies, such as ( XXXX, XXXX, Equifax ) have a duty to protect consumer information and ensure its accuracy. The CRAs actions in this matter represent a blatant disregard for these regulations. By reporting inaccurate and misleading information about me, the CRA 's have caused significant harm to my credit standing, limiting my access to credit and financial opportunities. This is a direct result of their ( XXXX, XXXX, Equifax ) negligence and failure to adhere to the FCRA. I demand the immediate deletion of the aforementioned charged-off account from my credit report. 

Additionally, I reserve the right to pursue all available legal remedies, including but not limited to monetary damages, for the harm caused by the CRAs violations of the FCRA. I have attached a copy of my credit report for your reference. I expect a timely response to this dispute, including written confirmation of the accounts deletion from my credit report. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
