The whole thing was sparked by people getting letters suggesting that the accounts would start reporting and that turned into phone calls and emails with EO and every instance was a confirmation that reporting will happen, the only thing that isn't clear is when and whether it will retain the opening date with Comenity or just when Sync took over. Since new accounts have already been reporting, it's not a matter of if but when the old ones report.

Re: Synchrony

I am just going to assume it reports anyday now. Not going to hurt my utilization. Just another new account that should stop hurting in October.  That March app spree was a thrill, the hangover, not so much.

No apologies needed @JR_TX.   Your post bumped up the discussion so others could see it as well Smiley Happy


 

@FinStar Thanks!

Yeah quite embarrassing when I created a thread not knowing that @Jnbmom (tips my hat to her) beat me to it by a thousand laps with a thread buried page/s down! Lol 

Merging my thread just saved me from further embarrassment. Smiley Happy

from what i have been told, it will report as a new account, from the date Synch took over. and will Report in Sept. / Oct.

this does not come from front line CSR's.

Re: Synchrony

I feel bad if they do report and the folks who closed their accounts still get dinged. It’s all on faith they won’t list the account just because they closed it.

It also strikes me as potentially illegal for a bank to re-age your account just because they are the current servicing bank. I find this extremely hard to believe.

@JR_TX  Don't be embarrassed this thread needs a bump to keep it current we are all waiting to see how this turns out.

Re: Paypal credit up and running

Heads up that when PPC starts reporting, Synch seems to report every few days. I am new to this forum by a few wks and before I did my research, I got the PPC last mth June 19 (had gotten emails telling me to apply). I made a purchase a few hrs after apping. The HP and the account with the purchase showed up on EX the next day. I thought I had time but no. Then I bought one more thing a week ago and today it showed up on EX again messing with my UTI. I haven’t even received a bill yet when it showed up on EX. I just got a note that my first payment will be due 7/27. Just warning ppl if you are using PPC for big purchases, know that Each charge will show up within a few days on EX.

Synchrony isn't obligated to report information from before they serviced the account. Since it's the first time it's being reported, they only have to include their data.

When you first open a Sync account, they can report multiple times in a month. This happened with my Amazon Store Card too. It didn't happen after my first statement though and my third card I just opened, Sync didn't even report the balance I charged on it right away like they did on my Amazon and PayPal cards.
