Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
PayPal Credit XXXX Synchrony Bank refuses to provide a credit card statement that has a XXXX balance at the end of the billing period, even though there was a beginning balance and activity during the billing period! I believe 12 CFR 1026.7 requires credit card companies to provide XXXX balance statements as long as there is any activity during the billing period ( e.g. payments, credits, charges, etc. ). According to your own web site, I read the following guidelines ; " Otherwise, you should generally receive a statement for every billing cycle in which your account has a credit or charge of more than {$1.00}, or on which a finance charge has been imposed. '' ( see https : XXXX/www.consumerfinance.gov/ask-cfpb/what-can-i-do-if-i-dont-receive-my-credit-card-bill-en-43/ ). When I worked in the financial industry, one of the things we saw that indicated possible fraud on a credit card was a charge and a credit for just {$1.00} or some other small dollar amount ( to test the validity of the account number ). If a customer does not receive a statement, they would likely not even know that there had been suspicious account activity. In summary, my complaint is that PayPal Credit XXXX Synchrony Bank refuses to provide a XXXX balance statement even though there is activity during the billing period.
