Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I have a Credit Card for Discount Tire which is one of Synchrony Banks Credit Cards. 
I am being charged a late fee starting XX/XX/XXXX  ( 29.00 ), XX/XX/ ( 40.00 ), XX/XX/XXXX  ( 41.00 ), XX/XX/ ( 41.00 ) for paying my monthly bill early. 
Iget paid on the first of every month and I pay my bills then. I also get paid on forth Wednesday of the month.

I reached out to Synchony Bank as inquired why the late fee 's. They Told me because I PAY MY BILL EARLY. There billing cycle is from the 5th to 28 th of each month. If I pay before the 5th of each month I have a late fee charged. 
This is absolutely ridiculous. 
This practice is wrong in so many ways. They are getting there money every month on time or a day or two early and I get charged for this. 
I included a statement showing late fee.

Complaint narrative:
15 USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) clearly states that transactions between the consumer and the Person/Corporation making the report is NOT included on the consumer reports. Yet Experian is reporting this information.. The reporting of excluded information pursuant to 15 USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) on a consumer report is a clear violation of Metro2 compliance. Provide me with the Metro2 compliance disclosure on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency. I need the transactions reporting as late, collection/charge-off status and any other derogatory information deleted from my consumer reports effective immediately. Before you think to reply that this account has been validated, lets be clear that I am not asking you to validate or verify anything. So please do not respond by telling me that as a tactic to waste my valuable time. Some of the negative accounts have been placed in Collection/Charge-Off Status WITHOUT mailing me a copy of IRS form 1099-C Cancellation of Debt. Experian and the creditors reporting collections/Charge-Offs, late payments/other derogatory information in my consumer report are in violation of 26 USC ss 6050P Returns Relating to the Cancellation of Indebtedness By Certain Entities. If this derogatory account information is not deleted from my consumer reports within 30 days, I will be forced to officially file IRS form 3949A : Information Referral AND IRS form 211. Application For Award Original Information Overview with the Internal Revenue Service against ALL entities involved.
