Complaint narrative:
I had opened a plan with synchrony bank on XX/XX/XXXX and got {$6000.00} credit with no interest if pay full in 18 months. On XX/XX/XXXX when I was trying to make my first payment and set up an auto pay, I accidentally paid in full, and then I immediately contacted with synchrony, and they said that they will send me a refund check and restart my plan. On XX/XX/XXXX I received the check which issued on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I start over the pay period. On XX/XX/XXXX I check my bank account and noticed they charged my over {$1800.00} interest charge on purchases. 
Synchrony count the months from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX so they said I didnt pay in full on time. It was TOTALLY INCORRECT. When I accidentally paid in full on XX/XX/XXXX, the system told me the period was ended and I cant reopen by myself. Until XX/XX/XXXX I was able to make a payment. The period should be counted on XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX.
