Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint against Synchrony Bank regarding unauthorized charges made to my Synchrony XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX account. 

I opened this account specifically to finance the purchase of a massage chair. However, following a recent unexpected failed payment in our auto pay, I reviewed my account activity and discovered recurring charges labeled PAYMENT CARD SECURITY, which I did not authorize or knowingly enroll in. 

These charges began appearing on my account just two days after my initial purchase and have continued for the past six months. At no point did I receive any documentation, disclosures, or notifications about this service. I did not request, approve, or knowingly consent to it.

This is especially concerning as these charges are non-promotional and have potentially accrued additional interest over time, further impacting my balance.

I am requesting that Synchrony Bank : Refund the full amount charged under PAYMENT CARD SECURITY Reimburse any interest accrued from these charges Provide documentation showing how and when I supposedly enrolled in this service I am seeking the CFPBs assistance in investigating this matter and ensuring I am made whole.

Thank you for your time and attention to this issue.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Company: Block, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Cash App ( Block , Inc. ) due to inadequate customer service and unfair practices, which violate the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). Specifically, Cash App failed to take timely and effective measures to prevent and address fraud on their platform, leaving my account vulnerable and unprotected.

Furthermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress for these violations.

Complaint narrative:
Complaint Follow-Up ID : XXXX This is a follow-up regarding my previous complaint submitted on XX/XX/year>. I have not received any response or update regarding this issue. 

Although the person made a partial payment in May, it does not reflect good faith or financial responsibility. The payment appears to be a tactical move to delay consequences or prevent account closure. The abusive use of the credit card, including repeated high-value purchases, refunds, and suspected cross-border resale activities, still continues. 

I request that this statement be added to my existing complaint and reviewed as part of the ongoing investigation.
