Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022, I initiated a balance transfer request online on XXXX XXXX XXXX website ( my credit card issuer ) for my Walmart Mastercard ending in XXXX in the amount of {$1400.00}. XXXX XXXX XXXX  online balance transfer system automatically generates the Creditors address. A few weeks after the balance transfer request, I noticed that payment had not posted to my Walmart Mastercard. I contacted XXXX XXXX  and it was determined that the payment was sent to the wrong creditor, Synchrony Bank. My Walmart Mastercard  was issued by and is serviced by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX mailed the balance transfer payment to Synchrony Bank. I have attached a copy of the check that was cashed by Synchrony Bank on XX/XX/2022 as well as details pertaining to the balance transfer. 

Since contacting XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  by phone, I have been contacted by a representative named XXXX at number XXXX. XXXX prepared a letter on my behalf and faxed it to Synchrony Bank requesting that the funds in the amount of {$1400.00} be returned to XXXX XXXX XXXX. She said in turn XXXX XXXX XXXX  would credit my credit card account ending in XXXX the {$1400.00}. XXXX has been persistently providing weekly status updates, however as of the date of this correspondence, sixty days after the balance transfer request was initiated this issue remains unresolved. XXXX said she can not process a refund to my account because she can not verify that it was a bank error. This is clearly a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  error. I did not input the wrong Creditor or wrong Creditors address into the balance transfer system, it was generated incorrectly by XXXX XXXX XXXX  online balance transfer system. 

Additionally, I have contacted Synchrony Bank and the representatives I have talked with acknowledged that the balance transfer check was cashed but have not provided an avenue in which the funds can be retrieved.
