Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
A Synchrony Bank Pay Pal Credit Account was opened on XX/XX/2020 and was immediately used for cash advances in the amount of {$3600.00}. In investigating how such account can be opened the only requirements are date of birth, your income after taxes, the last 4 digits of your social security number, and agree to Terms and Conditions. ( https : /XXXX  ) I learned about this account when my credit report was run in XX/XX/2020 showing delinquent payments. I have contacted Synchrony Bank and during my first call they could not tell me what purchases were made or any details for why I owed them money. They did not have my current address ( an address I have been in for 2.5 years ) so I had to give that to them in order for them to send me the notification of a Fraud Investigation, which I did receive within the 10 days they told me it would arrive. However, when it arrived it became apparent that they did not even have my correct name on file. Therefore, Synchrony Bank did not do any due diligence to protect my rights as a consumer since they allow someone to open lines of credit with a bare minimum of information. At this point in time, Synchrony Bank has done more to protect the people that have stolen my credit than they have done to protect me. They could not even give me the address that was used to open the line of credit.

Complaint narrative:
Capitol Accounts, LLC in XXXX apparently bought an account from XXXX XXXX that I had already paid off. XXXX XXXX bought another XXXX XXXX where I'd had an account. That account was paid off. 

Capitol Accounts reached out to me regularly for payment. I told them I did not owe the bill. In XXXX I filed a dispute. They said they would request documents from XXXX XXXX. I never heard back from them. I reached out to XXXX XXXX. Their office manager told me they had no record of my account and they no longer had documents from the original practice. 

Capitol Accounts still refused to remove this account from my credit report. I began following up again in XX/XX/XXXX. They have repeatedly said they are reaching out to the XXXX XXXX for a report. I called the XXXX XXXX, they say they have received no such request. The collection agency and the XXXX  office are literally 2 miles away from each other here in XXXX. At this time this account is still on my credit report and though I have repeatedly asked for documentation showing I owed this XXXX  Office money they have continued to put me off and not provide the request information and NOT take this account off my credit report.
