Synchrony Financial Credit card department,
Credit determination California
I have applied for a few Synchrony Financial credit cards and recently they froze all of my credit cards. I received a letter asking me to allow access to my IRS Tax return. They requeted that i allow access to a 3rd party, not to Synchrony. I do not feel comfortable releasing such private information to a 3rd party. I have done nothing to require this type of treatment. I have NEVER made a late payment on any of my Synchrony managed credit cards. I consistently pay my account in full before the due date. It is very unfair for Synchrony to approve me for credit and then freeze my cards with no valid reason. I was recently singing the praises of Synchrony and how they have become my favorite and most reliable credit card issuer. Then 2 days later they froze my accounts. - of the cards have not even been open for 10 days and are already appearing on my credit reports. If i do not comply with their demand for access to my tax returns i reisk them shutting down my acct which will have a detrimental effect on my credit report. They should have done any necessary verification before reporting the accts. My history of paying in full shows that i am not a credit risk to them.
