Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint to FIFTH THIRD BANK NA regarding unauthorized inquiries reflected in my credit report. Upon reviewing my credit file, I noticed that several companies have accessed my credit report without my permission. These inquiries were made without my knowledge or consent, and I did not authorize any of these companies to review my credit history. As a result, I believe that my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) have been violated, specifically the provision that requires a company to have a permissible purpose before accessing my credit information. I respectfully request an immediate investigation into these unauthorized inquiries and that the FIFTH THIRD BANK NA will remove them from my report. I am also requesting that the companies responsible for these unauthorized inquiries provide documentation showing that they had the required consent or permissible purpose to access my credit file. I trust that your agency will take the necessary steps to address this violation and ensure my credit report is corrected in accordance with the FCRA.

Syncrony Bank/Rooms to Go Credit Card We purchased some furniture from rooms to go in 2024 and after we paid it off - I happen to be looking at my accounts online and saw a {$410.00} charge on the rooms to go card. 
I contacted Syncrony to dispute the charge. Syncrony researched with Rooms to Go and determined it was a fee per the contract we signed.

In addition, we never got to see the contract until after the transaction was completed - on the sales person 's XXXX.
