On Tuesday, XXXX XXXX, 2016, I was on the phone with Synchrony Bank, for more than half an hour, addressing a concern to my Walmart 's Card and I also made a payment to my account. However, this morning, Wednesday, XXXX XXXX, 2016, I received a call from Synchrony Bank, at XXXX XXXX., which I did n't answer. However, within an hour, I did contact them, to get the nature of the call. Upon contacting them, I was informed that my account was overdue and I was told that I needed to make a payment to bring the account current. 

After I explained to the customer service representative that I had already made a payment to the account, she told me that it was not noted and that I would have to make the payment again. I asked if she could please verify the information, so I would n't be inconvenienced. However, she responded by saying that she had already checked the records and that a payment had not been made to the account and she suggested that maybe I had n't made a payment, at all. 

I was already upset by the fact that I was contacted at XXXX XXXX. in the morning regarding a matter I had already addressed. But, when she began to behave as if I were not being honest, I was even more upset by this. 

Anyway, I told her I would make the payment, so I could move forward with my day. Because, this is certainly not how I wanted it to began. 

She took the payment information and then insisted that I pay and additional {$15.00}, which had also been addressed the previous day, with another customer service representative. So, I refused and told her that I was completed with this conversation and I needed to get off the phone, so that I could began my day. I had already spent nearly 30 minutes of my morning addressing this redundant and unwarranted phone call. 

After hanging up the phone, I immediately went to the computer to check to see if the payment had been taken out, since I used my debit card to make the payment. Well, to my surprise and dismay, both payments had been removed from my bank account. The one from the previous day and the one I had just made by phone. I was outraged. 

I could n't believe I had wasted my morning addressing an issue that was already taken care of. And thanks to the negligence and inefficiency of Synchrony Bank - Walmarts customer service, now, I had made a double payment, which I never intended to do. 

I immediately contacted them back and demanded a refund of my second payment, which was never required. I feel that I was forced to do something against my will and I also feel that it was unethical practice. 

I was told that I could not have a refund, but the customer service representative told me that she would document what had happened. Well, this was unacceptable.
