Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: KS

Complaint narrative:
This loan was originally through Ally XXXX. Ally XXXX  did not have my written consent to sell the loan to Synchrony Bank, and Synchrony Bank did not have my written consent to buy the loan, so I am not subject to Synchrony Bank 's known fraudulent fees and behaviors. Synchrony Bank claims I was late, but I have never been late for the life of the loan, and they charged me a {$35.00} late fee. Synchrony Bank has already made money off this loan, so it's insane they want to charge fees. I called and talked to XXXX on XX/XX/year>. She claimed there was a bank reversal, which was an error on Synchrony 's end, as the bank used to process payment had plenty of funds, and Synchrony never notified me of this issue, and put a fraudulent late fee on the account, and the loan payment was submitted and paid in full. XXXX informed me she would remove the late fee as a courtesy, been that it should never have been there in the first place. I asked for confirmation emails stating that the fraudulent fee was removed, and confirmation that the loan was closed and paid in full and in good standing. I have not received that confirmation.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Reporting Agencies play a crucial role in gathering and assessing consumer credit information. However, they must exercise their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for the consumers right to privacy. The banking system relies on accurate and fair credit reporting, and when these reporting methods are unfair, it undermines public trust, which is vital for the system 's stability. I never gave my explicit, written consent for these agencies to report my information, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ). This violation has led to an alleged case of identity theft, breaching 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. The accounts in question are not related to any transactions made by me.

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act was created to ensure that laws and procedures are in place to protect consumers from abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices by debt collectors. In this case, the company has violated 15 U.S. Code 1692f, which prohibits debt collectors from using unfair or unconscionable means to collect a debt. Specifically, they can not collect any amounts that arent explicitly authorized by the agreement or allowed by law. Additionally, the company has violated 15 U.S. Code 1692e, which prohibits the use of false, deceptive, or misleading representations in debt collection efforts. This includes using deceptive methods to collect a debt or gather consumer information. Moreover, they are forbidden from contacting consumers at inconvenient times or places, or engaging in behavior that harasses or abuses consumers.

In this case, the company has harassed me by claiming I owe a debt that I do not recognize as my responsibility. They have also contacted me at inconvenient times and places, in violation of the law.

Violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681, Section 602 ( A ) : I am entitled to privacy, and these accounts are infringing on that right.

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.
