GE Capital Retail Credit Card Complaint

Billing disputes Texas

I have an Amazon.com Credit Card from Synchrony Bank. My payment was due by the - of the month and I paid my bill online on the -. As of today -/-/2015, I noticed my payment has not been posted yet and noticed that a Late Fee was charged to my account on the - after I made the online payment yesterday. I called Synchrony Bank and asked WHY they are charging Late Fees on the exact same date as the due date and they said it 's just their company policy to do so and it should take up to - hrs to process my payment and at that time, they can remove any late fees that were applied. I told them it 's not right to charge Late Fees on the exact same date as the Due Date and those fees should never be charged on the same date, but proper accounting practices should reflect late fees the day after the due date if payment is not received. I asked to speak to a supervisor who told me the same thing ... ( It 's their Policy ) and could not explain WHY they charge these fees on the same date as the due date. This is just a Class Action Law Suite waiting to happen. This is a Very Bad Policy and needs to be changed immediately. This can effect Finance Charges on these revolving consumer accounts and overcharge their customers in interest fees. Back Dating transaction and adding/removing fees is improper accounting and collection practices.
