Consumer Narrative

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX | XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX CareCredit / Synchrony Bank Attn : XXXX Customer Relations XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX Subject : Urgent : Account Minimum Payment Adjustment Hello, I am writing regarding my CareCredit account ( last 4 digits : XXXX ). {$1900.00} in Payment Security/Non- Payment Insurance charges have already been refunded. Despite this, my minimum payment still includes {$160.00} that I am not responsible for. I previously discussed this matter with Representative XXXX ( ID XXXX ), who advised that it can not be adjusted at her level. Phone representatives and lateral supervisors have repeatedly told me this can not be done because the system generated the minimum. This is incorrect. I am requesting : 1. The account minimum be corrected immediately to reflect only my actual balance. 2. Written confirmation that I am not responsible for the {$160.00} refunded charge. 3. Assurance that my credit will not be affected for refusing to pay a charge that does not exist. Please escalate this immediately to the department with authority to resolve this matter. I am ready to pay my actual balance once this correction is applied.
