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.

Issue: Fees or interest — Charged too much interest
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I called Synchrony Bank to ask about why I was charged {$44.00} in interest after I had paid completely the cost of my XXXX XXXX already. They told me that this was tail interest, but then were extremely rude to me and on the contract we signed, there was no mention of this type of interest. Prior to this, I had already paid over {$4000.00} more than the cost of the couch that I bought from XXXX due to hidden fees and outrageous interest payments made by Synchrony, which XXXX XXXX uses. Furthermore, Synchrony is by far the worst financial institution I have ever dealt with. Their business model relies on hidden charges, predatory practices, and a complete lack of transparency. They charge not only interest, but also additional tail interest that was never disclosed in the contract I signed. This is deceptive and unethical. 

The customer service experience was even worse. Since Synchrony has no physical locations, they seem to think they can get away with untrained, unprofessional, and outright disrespectful service. I spoke with XXXX so-called managers XXXX ( ID # XXXX ), XXXX ( ID # XXXX ), and XXXX and the experience was appalling. XXXX even refused to provide his employee ID when asked, and instead mocked me over the phone by repeatedly shouting, Are you going to close the account yes or no? without letting me speak or escalate the issue further. 

All three managers cut me off mid-sentence, argued with me like immature teenagers, and made it abundantly clear that Synchrony does not train their staff or hold them to any professional standard. Having to escalate to XXXX different managers only to be treated with further hostility shows this is not an isolated issue, but a systemic culture of disrespect and incompetence. 

In my entire life, I have never experienced customer service this unprofessional, nor have I seen such shady practices from a financial institution. Synchrony Bank is predatory, deceptive, and completely unworthy of trust.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because TransUnion is reporting inaccurate and unverifiable information on my credit report. On XX/XX/year>, I identified several accounts that I believe are either outdated, not mine, or can not be verified under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Please delete the following accounts : XXXX  - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - Incorrect Personal XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - Incorrect Personal I submitted a formal dispute to TransUnion requesting that these accounts be fully investigated and removed if not verified with proper documentation. However, I did not receive a meaningful investigation or verification, and the inaccurate information remains on my report. 

I am requesting the CFPB 's assistance to ensure TransUnion complies with federal law, specifically sections 1681i ( reinvestigation of disputed information ) and 1681b ( permissible purpose ). My goal is to have any unverifiable, inaccurate, or unauthorized accounts permanently deleted from my file.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
CFPB Complaint Summary What Happened On XX/XX/year>, I attempted to withdraw {$200.00} from a Bank of America drive-through ATM at XXXX and XXXX. The ATM dispensed only {$20.00}, but my account was debited the full {$200.00}, leaving me short {$180.00}. 

I immediately reported the error and filed a dispute. On Day XXXX, I spent time calling to report the issue. On Day XXXX, I drove to the branch and waited to speak with someone in person, only to be told to call a number and wait again. On Day XXXX, I received an email stating that my claim was denied with the explanation that the ATM dispensed correctly, but no supporting documentation was provided. Since then, I have had to call again, wait on hold, be transferred, write a letter, fax documents, and follow up repeatedly. 

I have requested that Bank of America review the ATMs cash balancing records, electronic journal logs, and surveillance footage, which would confirm my claim. They have not provided evidence that a proper investigation was conducted. Under Regulation E of the Electronic Fund Transfer Act, I am entitled to a reasonable investigation and a clear explanation of findings, which has not been provided. 

In addition to refunding the missing {$180.00}, I am requesting compensation for the time and hardship caused by Bank of Americas handling of this error.
