Synchrony with Amazon does *NOT* offer multi-factor authentication. I was just trying to set it up, couldn’t find it, and was told by a live chat representative that they don’t have it presently (11February2023). But I was assured that my feedback would be forwarded. 😉

In reply to Armando Casamento. Hi Armando - it doesn't look like they offer home loans or home equity lines of credit. But you might check with other banks, including some in your community.

In reply to Jeff. Hi Jeff - It depends how you make the transfer. If you do it by check there should be no cost. If you do a wire transfer there's probably going to be a fee.

I am looking to buy a house in the next year or two. If I need to get the money out and transferred back into my checking account at another bank is there a fee for that?

In reply to Tommy D.. Hi Tommy - Wow, that was a really lousy thing for them to do. Did you notify them that you'd be out of the country for an extended term? Unfortunately, most states have laws like that for inactive accounts. It's usually two years, but some are as low as one. If you're normally out of the country you may want to have a minor transaction at least once a year to make sure that doesn't happen again.

I had a terrible experience with this bank and do not recommend them if you’re living abroad. I worked overseas for eight years and during this time this bank decided that I was not active enough and closed my Diamond status account and transferred my entire savings to the state treasurer as “unclaimed property” (instead of emailing me, they snail mailed a letter to my US address that I had to return to prove I’m still active or something, which of course I never received because I wasn’t physically in the US at the time). It was hell trying to get my money back from the state. Out of my five banks, they were the only one to put me through this hellhole.
