Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX  XXXX - XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made me the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported to be removed. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


XXXX  XXXX - XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: VT

Complaint narrative:
I financed the purchase of an air conditioner through Synchrony Bank for {$8200.00} with no interest for 18 months. The minimum payment on my balance is {$200.00}. I have been paying {$250.00} each month via auto debit. I have not read a statement nor do I regularly log into my account because it was on auto pilot. I logged into my account today, XX/XX/XXXX, and saw an interest charge for {$2100.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and learned that while the original agreement was sold to me as zero interest for 18 months, it was actually 18 months of deferred interest, so I received 18 months ' worth of interest all at once in XX/XX/year>. 

I initiated a chat session with a representative from Synchrony and was told that since it had been 60 days since the charge there was nothing they could do and I would need to call a representative, which I did. I spoke with two different representatives and was told that the grace period was actually 30 days and that had I called within 30 days of learning about the interest charge they would have easily been able to remove it, as long as I paid off the original balance. I offered to pay off the remainder of the original balance ( ~ {$1400.00} ) in addition to whatever interest I've accrued since the end of the 18 month period and was met with " sorry since it's been 30 days there's nothing we can do. '' I explained that I was deceived in the original agreement and have made on time payments each month and would happily settle up the original balance right now. I have never financed anything before except a car and this experience has left such a bad taste in my mouth that it's unlikely I would ever finance a purchase such as this again. 

I have no record in my email nor on my Synchrony account detailing deferred interest. My statements have a notification about deferred interest and shame on me for not opening them regularly ( or ever ). In the world of Internet banking, relying on information to live in a vacuum in one location ( i.e. statement only ) isn't fair to the consumer. Clearly my account was on autopilot and while I could have been more proactive, a simple email reminder detailing what was about to occur could have avoided this altogether. However, my regular, monthly reminder from Synchrony never once indicated that I was about to be hit with 18 months of interest at once.
