Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Non-sufficient funds and associated fees
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Synchrony bank has attempted to close my PayPal Credit account without any advance notice per ADA requirements, stating that there were insufficient funds which is not correct at all. 

There have always been additional funds to withdraw from three type of money accounts and one is PayPal 's own savings account so there should have never been any insufficient funds charges or closing of my account because they allow for a draw against their own PayPal savings account. 

And lastly IF I had the inability to make payments for this account I had been subscribed to the PayPal protection plan since XXXX. 

I don't have to request that because I have an ADA this bank is supposed to automatically notify me of this per ADA law.

Product: Prepaid card — General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Trouble using the card — Trouble using the card to spend money in a store or online
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/23 there was a sale at XXXX and XXXX so I tried to make some purchases with an Amex digital gift card. I had previously tried to use this card numerous times at various different online retailers but the transaction would be declined. On XX/XX/23, the purchases that I attempted to make included approximately a {$400.00} charge from XXXX and several separate attempts on XXXX for various items from approximately {$5.00} to {$50.00}. My Amex gift card now shows that both XXXX and XXXX were able to initiate {$0.00} XXXX from both, despite the attempted orders being rejected. I spent several hours on the phone and online chatting with customer service representatives from XXXX and XXXX who explained that Amex is blocking the transaction from going through, and that I would need to speak with Amex customer support. I called the number provided by the Amex gift card and it was a completely automated system that would only give you a recorded message and then the option to go back to the main menu or it would hang up. I called Amex credit card customer support and they gave me this number to call, XXXX. After calling that and going through an automated system and then waiting another half and hour on hold, a customer rep told me that Amex does not allow transactions with certain retailers to go through for security purposes, and that XXXX and XXXX transactions would not work with this gift card. I asked for a list of companies that would work with the card, or even a list of companies that would be rejected, and the rep said they do not have a list of either and that I " just need to keep trying the card and see if it works. '' After attempting to use my card at several retailers over the past year, including XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and others, and spending numerous hours on customer support, including at least XXXX hours on this issue on XX/XX/23, I am not able to use the funds associated with my Amex digital gift card despite a sincere effort to find somewhere that would be able to successfully process this form of payment.
