Company: KEYCORP
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
This complaint is similar to one that was recently resolved by Key Bank. 
I did not realize I could have also mentioned a second check. 

Please see the facts outlined in my prior complaint XXXX. This complaint involves a second check that was compromised at the same time. 

Basically, checks were washed from two of my accounts for the XXXX XXXX XXXX back in XXXX, XXXX. Despite me immediately notifying Key Bank and completing all the required forms and filing a police report, the funds were not refunded to the accounts. I did everything possible to resolve the situation. 

At this time, there is one outstanding check for {$3200.00}, which funds have not been deposited back in my account.

From one of my recent calls to the Key Bank fraud line, I was advised that they filed a demand with XXXX. I asked when it was filed and was advised it was about 6 months ago. I asked if it was normal for it to take that long for a reply. 

As you can see from the prior complaint above, there were issues with the representative in the fraud department on my many calls, including being told that a supervisor would not take my call or call me back. 

I am hopeful, from the recent resolution of the other check, that this matter can be resolved with the depositing of the above amount back in the account.

Issue: Fees or interest — Charged too much interest
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I had paid off this card within one year of my card use, to avoid the interest. 
XX/XX/ statement, included a large interest charge,. I called the company to see why was I charged this. They said I had a balance that was not paid on my first purchase. I paid off the balance and had not used the card for about 7 months. 

So I asked the rep to send me a copy of all of my statements, she said she would, I never recieved them. so I called again, explained my case, and was told he would be sending them in 14 days, plus he was very rude, so I told him to close this account, because I do not want to be charged any more interest than they are already charging. 
So I called a third time, and the rep told me, he could not send me the statements, because the account is closed, the reason I closed the interest charge and poor customer service.

Complaint narrative:
This letter serves as a formal protest against the veracity of the data in my most recent credit report. Upon closer inspection, it appears that the report contains a number of errors that have had a negative impact on my credit history. 

The credit report has revealed a significant departure from what was anticipated, which is an extremely unsettling finding. 

Being aware that the Fair Credit Reporting Act requires credit reporting companies to provide the most accurate information possible is your responsibility as a consumer. Due to the potential harm they may cause, these errors may make it unjustifiably difficult to obtain credit on fair terms. 

Given these errors, I humbly ask that a new copy of my credit report be sent to me after the necessary corrections have been made. a truthful assessment of my creditworthiness. 

I'm sure you'll approach this situation with the utmost professionalism and diligence. I place the utmost importance on the accuracy of the data in my credit report because it is essential to my present and future financial security. 

I really appreciate you paying attention to this. We greatly appreciate your quick action in correcting these errors. At your earliest convenience, kindly provide any updates on the state of this disagreement.
