GE Capital Retail Credit card department,
Synchrony bank took control of my Dickssportinggoods card from GE Money bank. I am separated from my wife and she set up payments to automatically come out of her bank account. For some reason after 6 months they quit taking the payments. Due to our situation there was a lack of communication and we did n't realize for several months that this had occured. After a while I came in contact with Synchrony bank to begin trying to rectify the situation. They have never been very helpful or courteous to me throughout this ordeal. They told me once that they could put me on a program to help me out. But I was going to have to suspend charging privileges. I did n't want to do that so I called Dicks to try and find a better solution. They referred me back to Synchrony. When I called them back to take their offer 15 minutes later, they informed me that I had no programs available to help me. So anyway, I have been paying the minimum payments to try and get the past due amount taken care of. My charging privileges have been suspended. That is all well and good, but what I 'm filing my complaint about is that last month, and maybe other months, I made my payment on time and they still charged me a late fee. When I called to make my - payment I questioned them and they said that since I did n't pay the full amount that I would get charged late fees. I think that is absurd. They said I agreed to that when I opened the card. I agreed to nothing with them, my agreement was with GE Money Bank. I am asking to get a minimum of - late fee refunded and a maximum of - for the months they quit taking our payment without us knowing
