Complaint narrative:
Just less than a month ago, Experian received correspondence on my behalf in regards to several accounts on my credit file due to identity theft. The account XXXX XXXX # XXXX was recently removed or deleted from my Experian credit report due to the account being blocked. As of XX/XX/2020 The same account ( XXXX  XXXX # XXXX is appearing on my Experian Credit file.

I find this totally unacceptable and Experian should be held accountable for the violating actions.

Complaint narrative:
Victoria 's Secret Acct # : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Re : 30-day late I went into a Victoria 's Secret store to pay my monthly bill XX/XX/2018. The sales person working at the counter would not accept my payment method and was insisting I pay a different way. I thought I could make the payment this way. Because of the time of day I wasn't able to make the payment and so a 30-day late was reported XX/XX/2018. My understanding was that I could go into a store to make the payment so it was a surprise to me that the sales person wouldn't accept my payment. The person also didn't assist me otherwise so that I would not be late. I have been a loyal customer and I should have been assisted at the store.

Trans Union reported my Credit Score to a potential lender as XXXX. 
I went on line at TU, purchased my score and it was XXXX. 

How can a credit agency tell me my score is one number and tell a potential lender it almost 50 points less. That is some form of consumer deception, is it not????

Repeated phone calls from Client Services , Inc. from XXXX XXXX, Mo. Repeatedly call multiple times a day. When I answer to ask them to remove me from their list, they will not answer why they are calling, or will even hang up. The voicemails they leave are vague and leave no details as to debt they're trying to collect. Pair that with I have no debt in collections, this is getting to be a nuissance.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I have a Amazon Credit card from Synchrony bank and last week I checked my account and I was surprised to see a one time {$990.00} charge from the credit card company on top of the regular interest I have been charged on a monthly basis. I called the bank and was told the first time by the person on the phone that she was going to escalate the issue and have the fees refunded to my account. I was never aware of a promotion that was going to charge me that much interest at the end of 12 months neither did I received a reminder about getting charged that much money on interest due to s promotion who is about to expire. I purchased my products on Amazon and selected my Amazon card at the end of the checkout process, however I wasn't aware of something like that. This is unprofessional and I feel like I have been scammed. I called again today the bank trying to speak to someone and their agents were rude and unwilling to help. I'm filing a complaint here, however if I don't hear back from the bank or Amazon, I will file a lawsuit against the bank for malpractice and overcharging my account. I will not let this go and I'm not agreeing on paying for this ridiculous high interest fee. This is outrageous and unbelievable. Banks can just charge you fees and interest like that without giving you a warning. Who is going to protect us. Why Synchrony bank never send me a email, letter or any communication regarding a promotion I signed off which I was never aware. Why I was never aware of the promotion from the start to the end especially if I was going to be charged a ridiculous amount. When did Synchrony bank send me any notifications regarding this promotion and the charges I was going to get? I will definitely file a lawsuit and use any means necessary to tell my story and get the charges reversed back. 

I have now an additional {$990.00} on my credit card balance and stuck with paying for that. 

Thank you
