Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Getting a credit card — Application denied
Company: Synovus Bank
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a secured credit card through First Progress to help rebuild my credit. I paid a XXXX. Dollar deposit that was supposed to be the actual credit limit of the card.After weeks of emails from this company telling me my card was on its way and emails saying I should have my card and wanting me to set up online payments for this card, I still had not received the actual card. When I contacted the company by email I was told it was on its way, there was a billing problem one time and an application delay the next time I finally contacted them by phone, the customer service person I spoke with didnt have a clue what was going on, so I asked for a supervisor, I was kept on hold for over 20 minutes and she promptly told me my application was denied and had been denied over a week prior, so when I asked about my deposit, she said they refund the deposit within 3 business days of the denial, I than asked well if it was denied over a week ago how come I havent received it back on to debit card? She then told me that I would be refunded the full amount by the end of that day. That was over a week ago, this feels like a scam and unfortunately I also sent these people a lot of personal information including a copy of my drivers license and bank statements, thats my biggest concern. I definitely should have done more research before I did this!!

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Public record information inaccurate
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
Dear Experian & XXXX ; THIS PUBLIC RECORD IS INCOMPLETE AND UNVERIFIABLE! 

Not only this public record is not verifiable, but it continues to report multiple inaccuracies, and incomplete information in violation of my consumer rights. I noticed that XXXX removed it because of being unverifiable, incomplete, and with multiple inaccuracies, but Experian and XXXX are still reporting it and claiming that it was verified. I already called the courthouse, and the clerk directed me to their website to read the guideline which said that they do not report to any credit reporting agencies. How then did you verify it.? These are some violations and inaccuracies that I was able to point out to XXXX; such as ; wrong courthouse name, wrong dock or reference numbers ; wrong filed date, etc, much much more. AGAIN, The United States Bankruptcy courts DO NOT report any activity to credit bureaus. Federal law protects the privacy of most personally identifiable information reported. However, the credit bureau actively searches public records for any judgments and tax liens through third-party research. A Bankruptcy is public information, Again, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court DO NOT report anything to the various credit bureaus, nor do they verify that the information reported is accurate. Your agency has found information on bankruptcies through third-party research. I also, must add that your recent investigation doesn't provide a data furnisher name, it only states that it was certified to your company that the information is accurate, my question is how and from whom? Please validate this information and provide me with copies of any and all documentation associated with these accounts bearing my signature. I formally request that this information is immediately deleted from the credit file you maintain under my social security number. Please note that I am closely monitoring my credit file and you have exactly 30 days to complete this investigation as per the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623 ( a ) ( 3 ) and I will be keeping very careful records of all actions taken regarding my file. Failure to respond satisfactorily within 30 days of receipt of this certified letter will result in a small claims action against your Agency. I will be seeking {$5000.00} in damages for, but not limited to 1. Defamation ; 2. Negligent Enhancement of Identity Fraud ; 3. Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act
