Re: Synchrony accounts with a temp locked !!!!

People tend to get caught up in the excitement and yes by and large it is encouraged. Keep in mind that at the end of the day these are financial matters. Poking the bear constantly for things you don't really need out of boredom such as huge limits on gas cards is probably not a good idea.

Well, last night got all my accounts locked, called today and I have a letter on the mail, let see what is this about, I have around 95K total exposure and my balance with them is : Walmart - $250 and BR - $200, 4 days ago PIF SAM's ($350), other than that nothing has changed, i guess is because i am at 95K with them ??, my income is around that number and never lied about it, dont know the required income limit to qualify for 95K with them so hope someone can answer this for me.

 

I really don't care about their cards, the only card I would like to keep is CareCredit, they can close the rest, if this happen my total utilization won't affected me, right now my Total Util is 0%, around $550 and $250 are from Walmart (the $200 from BR was last weekend) so if they close my accounts won’t affect anything on my file.

 

If they are asking for my 4506-T will comply though, never lied and have nothing to hide so let see.

 

Note: My last CLI request was a month ago (using chat) and i was told to call but never did, i knew it was a denied so didn't bother, other than that business as usual, i just finished paying a patio furniture i bought on walmart, cost was $1200 and i took 24 months finance at the store, PIF in just 3 months.

 

I noticed few guys here are in the same boat so i hope everything end well for all of us, really don't want to see another Comenity thing among us.

 

Now i remember, i asked for aditional cards for my wife, (Stash and Lowe's) to help her on her Total Utilization, i got them yesterday but never activate them, i was planing on doing it today lol, she has a Walmart since 4 months ago. 

  


Darn... I was hoping the last thread would be the last of these, but apparently not.  Smiley Sad

 

I'm genuinely sorry to hear about this... as I'm sure you know many of us on here have a card (or two...) with Synchrony, and we're all hoping this doesn't become 'business as usual' for them.

 

Thank you for providing all the extra detail.  One question I have (if you don't mind sharing) is have you added any new accounts or inquiries on TU recently, as in the last six months?  I'm still trying to figure out a common-denominator to why Synchrony is seemingly singling out some people. 

 

Again, I hate to hear you've been impacted by this, and hopefully the letter you get will direct you to a quick and simple resolution. 


Thank you UncleB, really appreciate it.

 

Not at all, here is the data you are asking:

 

2016 - 5 Inq 

1- CLI request on CareCredit - Approved

1- CLI request on BofA visa - approved and then combined.

1- Barclaycard A+ MC World Elite approved - CL 7.5k

1- Capital One Venture - Denied

1- Car CareCredit - approved - CL - 1K, called a month later and cancelled (drunk + reading approval thread = Stupidity + HP) like no drink and drive, i go with no drink and myfico approval seccion lol.

 

That is all i got this year on TU, my score last July 4 was 719, i also applied for Citi Costco but its not on any CRB yet, other than that there is nothing else.

  


That seems completely... unremarkable.  Smiley Frustrated

 

In one of the other cases there were lots of recent new accounts but that's not the case with you.  I'm assuming your Venture denial was due to already having an active Capital One application (or a new Cap One account within the last six months), so that's likely not an indicator of anything either.

 

Lots of people are tossing around the '4506-T' yet none of the new cases have received their letter yet, so it might be simpler than that.  One person did have to provide a 4506-T but the cases we've read about today might not require that level of verification <fingers crossed>.

 

Thanks again for sharing with us here, and please keep us posted!  Smiley Wink

UncleB you mentioned on one of the other smilar threads that you wondered maybe if there was a common denominator, now I wonder if there is one overall, for these multiple lockouts we're seeing.  Very interesting, at the least.

When my friend called this morning she told me they specifically used the words "have to check something with the IRS".  Then to wait for the letter.
