My experience with Synchrony has been a nightmare from start to finish.I ended up with this card completely by accident. I was at Mattress Firm, and the salesperson was extremely vague, failing to explain that I was actually opening a full credit card. Now I am stuck with a card that has a $7,000 limit but absolutely zero value to me. There are no sign-up bonuses, no rewards structures, and no benefits. It is just a useless line of credit that I never intended to open and I have only used once for the Mattress Firm.As bad as the sign-up process was, the technical side is even worse. They recently changed to a "new" login system for absolutely no reason, creating a literal catch-22 that makes it impossible to even manage my account.Here is the situation: The new system demands my full account number to re-register, even though I had been registered. I can not get the account number because every email I have from them has the account number redacted (only showing the last 4 digits). I never received full PDF statements via email, so I can not look there. I am somehow still logged into the mobile app on my phone, but it is completely dysfunctional. It refuses to load my previous statements or account details, just says "No Statements Available".So, to log in to the new website, I need my account number. To get my account number, I need to view a statement. To view a statement, I need to log in (or have a working app). I am completely locked out with no way to retrieve the one piece of information they require to let me back in.Between the misleading in-store practices, the uselessness of the card itself, and a technology ecosystem that traps you in an impossible loop, I would recommend avoiding Synchrony or Synchrony Bank or whatever their name is at all costs. Terrible website, terrible app, terrible business practices.
