Complaint narrative:
I hope you're doing well. I've run into a bit of a problem. While going through my credit report, I noticed some things that don't seem quite right, and it appears my identity have been stolen online. My nephew, who's studying XXXX XXXX, helped me out by finding a way to check if my XXXX emails were involved in this breach. To my surprise, it turns out that 2 out of 3 of my emails contain a lot of my sensitive and personal information. I want to emphasize that I'm not the one behind these accounts. Please see attached file for these items I am complaining.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Account with Lowes Synchrony total balance owed of XXXX was paid online XX/XX/XXXX and minimum of {$30.00} due by XX/XX/XXXX. My bank XXXX notified me that XXXX identical payments from Lowes synchrony were hitting my account on XX/XX/XXXX early am. I called credit card services and they saw my payment of XX/XX/XXXX and a duplicate payment XX/XX/XXXX that I did not make. They couldnt help me with that erroneous duplicate payment so suggested I contact my bank. XXXX suggested a stop payment on XXXX and waived the {$36.00} fee. Friday I called synchrony and both payments were stopped. Called XXXX and they apologized for their mistake and suggested we cancel the stop payment since its only able to be done on an amount and both were the same. Also I transferred another XXXX into this account since its not my primary checking account and I dont leave much of a balance. The next week lowes synchrony showed I owed XXXX the original amount and a late charge. I paid both immediately. The next day they closed my account because of two returned payments. I called customer service and XXXX said if XXXX would fax a letter stating they told me they could stop payment on one item and not the other erroneously they would reinstate my account. I went into my bank branch and they dont fax but ran the problem up to corporate. I received a call from XXXX corporate asking how they could make it right and offered to do a XXXX way call. XXXX wont call me back to do that. Every time I call I have to go over all this again. I want to add 2 things 1 ) if I did make a duplicate payment on Tuesday XX/XX/XXXX after making XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX why did they both hit my bank on am XX/XX/XXXX and not a day apart. XXXX explained that by saying the Monday XX/XX/XXXX payment must have been made after midnight. Thats impossible I never ever stay up after XXXX and bill pay during the day XXXX ) I tried to pay my XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX cards the exact amount and was given a pop up asking if I meant to make a duplicate payment. Does Lowes synchrony do this? Cant check because my account is closed. Ive never ever had a returned payment in this or any other payments ever!!!!!

In your memo dated, it's explicitly stated that the results of the investigation would be provided to me within 30 days. That deadline has come and gone without a single word from them regarding the status or findings. 

This lack of follow-through and blatant failure to uphold their commitment is unacceptable. You are the bureau and you have ample time to conduct your work and there is no justified reason for this excessive delay in sharing conclusions. In your memo built an expectation that I relied upon, and your inaction represents a breach of that assurance.

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.
