Re: PayPal Credit & Mastercard

Synchrony closed my Lowe's card ($25K) awhile back and was told it was for non-usage.

I tend to use my PayPal accounts 2-4 times a month. None of my other Synchrony accounts have been impacted.

 

I will say the Lowe's card pushed me over $100K with Synchrony which has been reported as a ceiling for some.

 

Sorry about the closure and I am interested to hear the reasons Synchrony provides.

And, in the long run, you're better off with them. Sync is really not a reliable player in the CC arena. I have 2 accounts with them I'm too lazy to close, but I don't rely on them or care about them.

I agree. This was completely random and unexpected given my relationship with other creditors (and synchrony!). I'll definitely never use them again at this rate.

Re: Master Synchrony Account Closure Thread

Today I learned that Synchrony Bank closed all of my accounts over $60,000 in credit and the answer I got was that I am a potential risk for not paying my bills. I've never been late on a payment, all but 2 cards held a balance, my overall utilization is 6%. I am livid! My credit score is 730+ and they did this to me. Now I don't know how hard my score is going to fall because of this! Please someone tell me that there's something I can do legally against this company?

Based on a majority of recent reports, this has been a recurring theme with a variety of closures.  Sorry to hear they closed your accounts.  Unfortunately, there's really no legal recourse surrounding their adverse actions or decision.  A variety of individuals have filed BBB/CFPB complaints, and/or pursued through respective AG, however it's yielded nothing favorable.

Re: Master Synchrony Account Closure Thread

I don't mean to steer this thread in the wrong direction, but can someone point me to an updated/recent list of all cards backed by Synchrony (if one does exist)?  I'd like to make sure to completely avoid them.
