Consumer Narrative
The XXXX credit card and the Chevron credit card is operated by ; https : //www.mysynchrony.com/ synchrony bank who has refused internet access to paying the bill on line regardless of the fact that I have been paying the bill on line since 2014. Furthermore, they are demanding that customers download some software program on their cell phone or tablet that will grant the user access to their account which is XXXX on its face. Since the software developers are using such software on cell phones to track the end users data, travel, and communications of the wireless device. I have had problems paying my credit card bill for the past six months due to restricted access where synchrony is demanding using the software program on the cell phone which I will not do. Therefore their software goes NO WHERE ON MY ELECTRONICS and the shall allow me to pay the bill on line. Enough of this restricted XXXX, as this method of restricting access of account holders to check their balances is doing nothing but restricting on time payments. These restrictions are an attempt to invade account holders privacy which was never authorized.
