I have called XXXX Customer Service MANY TIMES!! Their response, " You Need To Call XXXX XXXX. This weekend, I have called XXXX XXXX, using ( 10 ) different numbers. I even called " XXXX XXXX Fraud Department. '' Hoping someone from that department, could give me the phone number, of the department at Synchrony, that deals with XXXX CUSTOMERS. This RUN AROUND, has got to stop.
I was on the phone Saturday Night, XX/XX/XXXX for ( 4 ) hours. Still NO HELP. I have copies of all my " XXXX XXXX '' orders. I check off each charge, when I received my monthly statements. Once the one through five or six XXXX XXXX are met, this item is paid for. IS THIS CORRECT?? Now, according to my records, I have ( 12 ) items, I still owe for. With a remaining balance of {$220.00}. The Last XXXX XXXX, will be XX/XX/XXXX. My payments, have NEVER BEEN LATE!! My Payments Are Always Over The Minimum Due. i.e. Payments from {$100.00} to {$270.00}. So, please explain my balance. When I received the letter from XXXX, stating XXXX XXXX would be taking care, of credit card. I XXXX XXXX XXXX, NOT GOOD!! Lots of bad reviews. Then when I saw, " THE LIST '' of other accounts you take care of ... My first thought, there 's some type of " MONOPOLY, '' Going On. I do not care if XXXX XXXX have assets of {$39.00} XXXX or more. HOW CAN ONE BANK HAVE THIS MUCH POWER?? Recently, two of my other credit cards, have gone with XXXX XXXX. I AM NOT HAPPY!! I HAVE ALL OF MY INFO ; 1.

Documentation of ALL OF MONTHLY PAYMENTS!! If I had the CEO phone number, I would have call her, Saturday night. Please, direct me to the " ACCOUNT MANAGER, who deals with XXXX. Also, I DO NOT Like XXXX XXXX/XXXX website. It was NO HELP. Every time a phone call, is made to check the consumers credit scores, before making a purchase. ALL OF THESE PHONE CALLS ARE NOTED ON THEIR CREDIT FILE. I HAVE GOOD CREDIT. AND I WANT IT TO STAY THAT WAY!! I WILL BE WAITING FOR A REPLY, regarding my issue. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- - Today 's Date ; XX/XX/XXXX 2nd Email Complaint XXXX Attention ; XXXX XXXX Office of the President XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, SD XXXX XXXX Ext XXXX XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX EDT To : XXXX Cc : XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Friday XXXX EST Attention ; XXXX XXXX Hi XXXX , Hope your day is going well.
