Complaint narrative:
Re : Synchrony Bank On XX/XX/XXXX I purchased cabinets from Lowes in the amount of {$6600.00} using my Lowes credit card through Synchrony bank. Lowes had a promotional interest rate of 7.99 % that is charged monthly for 5 years or until it is paid off. 

I purchased a ( one ) dishwasher on XX/XX/XXXX for {$560.00}. Interest is deferred until XX/XX/XXXX. I had a change of delivery date. I was told that the order would have to be cancelled in order to change the date. So on XX/XX/XXXX there were two charges for the amount of {$560.00} when there should be just one charge on my statement. 

I have asked Synchrony why there are two charges, and their agents say that even though the charge appears twice it has only been charged once : why is it showing twice then? 

I have repeated asked Synchrony via phone to apply the payments we have sent to the dishwasher balance and then towards other payments where the promotional, interest free period is due to expire. 

To date, Synchrony has been applying all payments to the larger balance that is not expiring for 5 years nothing has been applied to the dishwasher yet. We have been paying {$500.00} to XXXX per month since XXXX of XXXX and the balance for the dishwasher should have been paid off by now. I have called Synchrony each month for the last 6 months and each time their agent says the funds will be applied as I have requested : but never have the funds been applied as I asked or expected.

Complaint narrative:
I received a pre-screened offer in the mail for a Chase Sapphire XXXX card with a unique invitation number, implying that I had been individually pre-approved for this card. When I applied I was declined. This immediately knocked 6 points off my XXXX XXXX which will make credit more expensive to me in future. Also, the enquiry will be on my credit history for 2 years making it more difficult for me to obtain credit cards from other providers.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute the late payments that have been reported on my credit report. According to my records, I have made all payments on time and in full, and I believe that these late payment entries are inaccurate.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), consumers have certain rights and protections when it comes to credit reporting. Specifically, I would like to draw your attention to the following provisions : 15 USC 1681i : This section outlines the procedure for disputing inaccuracies on credit reports. As a consumer, I have reviewed my credit report and identified the following late payment entries that I dispute : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

I request that you investigate these entries and remove them from my credit report if they are found to be inaccurate. I also request that you provide me with a written explanation of your investigation results and any corrections made to my credit report. 

15 USC 1681b : This section requires that credit reporting agencies only provide credit reports to parties that have a legitimate purpose for accessing them. I ask that you confirm that you had a legitimate purpose for reporting the late payments to the credit reporting agency in question.

15 USC 1666b : This section requires that creditors provide written notice to consumers when adverse actions are taken, such as reporting late payments to credit reporting agencies. I request that you confirm that you provided me with the required notice prior to reporting the late payments to the credit reporting agency.

Furthermore, I remind you of your obligation under the FDCPA to provide accurate information to credit reporting agencies. Failing to do so could be considered a violation of the Act and could result in legal action being taken against you.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please provide me with any necessary documentation or information to assist me in this dispute process.

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
