Consumer complaint received 2025-06-08 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Closing your account — Company closed your account
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, CareCredit ( Synchrony Bank ) closed my credit card account due to multiple returned payments. I was only notified of the closure by a mailed letter, which I received the weekend of XX/XX/year>, well after the 24-hour deadline to fix the issue had passed. Prior to this, I regularly received payment reminders by phone and text, but no such notifications were given regarding the account closure. 

The returned payments were unintentional and caused by banking processing delays and a duplicate payment attempt. I made the full payment promptly after realizing the issue and attempted to communicate with CareCredit to resolve it. 

Despite my efforts, the account was closed abruptly, and the negative information has now damaged my credit score. When I contacted CareCredit to ask about alternative notifications or assistance, their representatives refused to provide clear information or support. 

I am seeking a resolution for the improper closure and unfair impact on my credit, as well as clearer communication and fair treatment going forward.

Issue: Fraud or scam — 
Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I made a payment through XXXX to a merchant who I later discovered was operating fraudulently. Upon realizing this, I promptly disputed the transaction with XXXX and initiated a stop payment and reversal through my linked bank account. The bank successfully pulled back the funds. 

However, XXXX has since repeatedly mishandled my dispute : XXXX closed my dispute twice without conducting a proper investigation. 
They did not request any supporting documentation, evidence, or information from me at any time, despite my readiness to provide proof of the fraud. 
XXXX has now informed me that I am responsible for the payment and has posted the amount as a negative balance on my account, demanding repayment, rather than pursuing the fraudulent party. 
They have failed to follow fair investigation procedures under the Electronic Fund Transfer A

ct ( EFTA ) and Regulation E requirements. This process has caused unnecessary stress, time loss, and financial uncertainty. I have made multiple attempts to escalate the issue through XXXX support channels without any resolution.

Complaint narrative:
I reviewed my credit report and found late payments that are inaccurately reported and inconsistent with my records. I filed a written dispute with the credit bureau under FCRA 1681i, requesting investigation and correction. However, the tradeline still shows multiple late payments without proper validation or correction.

The creditor has not provided documentation to support these claims, and the pattern of reporting may violate Metro 2 formatting and FCRA accuracy requirements.
