Complaint narrative:
I was completely taken aback this morning when I noticed inaccurate accounts on my credit report, with no understanding of how they appeared. I checked my credit report as I always do, but this time, I was startled by discrepancies that seemed to come out of nowhere. I even refreshed the page, thinking it might be a browser glitch, but the errors persisted. Because of this, Im asking for a thorough examination of the documents Ive provided, so I can have peace of mind once again.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> at XXXX XXXX XXXX I received an email from CareCredit, which I had to log in to view. My credit limit was slashed almost in half. I have only used the card once - to save my XXXX XXXX. I have never missed a payment or had a late payment. I have recently had a significant increase in my income. I have been paying down debt and was greatly improving my credit score. On the day my credit increased by over XXXX points they slash my limit to just {$20.00} shy of my balance owed. Its not even an expected number ( $ XXXX really?! ). I could not find out why it occurred or how I could appeal. It feels as if I am playing a losing game with credit card companies and the credit bureaus. Make a few steps forward and end up farther back than where you started. Consumers need better protections from this rigged system.
