Complaint narrative:
I am a hardworking individual has been diligently paying my accounts on time for the quite a long time. However, upon reviewing my credit report, I discover several instances of late payments recorded by these creditors. Perplexed by this discrepancy, I contacted these creditors to inquire about the inaccuracies. After discussing the matter with a customer service representative and the billing department, it becomes evident that there was a mutual agreement between me and these creditors to adjust the payment schedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Despite adhering to this adjusted schedule, the payments were mistakenly marked as late in the system. Understanding the gravity of the situation, these creditors swiftly acknowledge the error and assures me that the inaccurate late payments will be rectified. Additionally, they offer to provide written documentation of the agreed-upon payment schedule to prevent any future misunderstandings.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Since XXXX  Synchrony bank retail accounts have been targeting my accounts by manipulation of my credit usage without cause. Using boiler plate reasons that existed when each of the accounts were approved and opened. Resulting in creating the issue that they cite for the reason of the reduction of credit lines. The reductions are arbitrary and are select to increase credit usage of over 90 % in attempts to justify their stated reason for the reduction. All the accounts have 100 % payment history since 2022. The latest account XXXX was not used for about 8 months charged {$170.00} with a {$1000.00} credit line and they just reduced the credit to {$200.00}. I was so incensed with this latest action that I immediately closed the account. Synchrony Banks actions in the last 3 months window of time has negatively affected my credit score by approximately XXXX points and with about XXXX lines of credit with 100 % payment history the only issue that has negatively affected my score has been the Synchrony Bank actions. They have affected my retail accounts with XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, Synchrony XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX accounts. They continue to target my accounts, their latest correspondence from my XXXX account reducing the credit limit to again create a 90 % credit usage. During that reduction my credit score increased by XXXX points which is an indication of their faulty reviews. In the past when they reviewed my accounts XXXX XXXX account did not affect a second XXXX account and now they are attacking all of my accounts again all with 100 % payment history. In researching Synchrony Bank in lieu of these issues, apparently Synchrony Bank has a history of approving account and 6 months later reducing the credit lines resulting in an artificial increased credit usage. It is a pattern that I am now experiencing. It seems apparent that Synchrony Bank does not want me to remain a customer and is not interested in addressing any possibility that an error has been made. If they believe a credit line reduction is warranted why not reduce it uniformly at a percentage based calculation based on the current credit line or why not reduce them all to a consistent amount? Why reduce one account, close others and keep others open. The actions point to targeting the customer with unfair practices resulting in financial cost.
