Synchrony Bank Credit Card Complaint

Transaction issue

Synchrony Bank Credit card department,

Transaction issue Georgia

Synchrony Bank, - -. This company advertise that you can make free payments through the automated account via telephone. The first time I had the issue was in -. I called two days in advance approximately around - in the morning, it stated it took the payment. I called back on the - after I noticed my account had not been charged the payment to only find out it did not take. I was provided a confirmation number. So of course my account was charged a late fee and I was not late. With the automated and technology their system have record of me calling making a payment, even though they state there is nothing. The late fee was waived, but it should be removed completely as I was not late. 2nd issue, I called and tried using the automated again to make my monthly payment, it recognizes my phone, but then when you go to the automated, it will not let you put the payment you are trying to pay, it keeps asking the same questions over and over. Its a scam, directing the consumer to a customer service rep which charges a fee for paying as the automated


tonight to make payment and of course the automated will not let me do the payment again, it could n't get past the amount to pay. I kept indicating I wanted to make the minimal payment, it would not go past this. I requested an operator who waived the - dollar fee, as I informed her I was filing a complaint against this company. The sad part is I have a JC Penney account that has the same bank and I do not have any issues with making payments, online or automated, but this credit card is the worse. This company is scamming people, manipulating the system for consumers to incur late payments or incur the cost of speaking with a rep to make payment as the system is not allowing you to go through the prompts via the automation. This company should be audited and all funds charged should be refunded to the consumers. A class action needs to be brought against this company as its ripping us the consumers off with its fraudulent practices.
