How to Remove eBay MC SYNCB From Your Credit Report

Is eBay MC SYNCB hurting your credit score?

Lexington Law Firm has successfully assisted millions of clients in removing inaccurate and questionable credit inquiries from their credit reports.

What is eBay MC SYNCB?

eBay MC/SYNCB is a credit report code that stands for eBay Mastercard/Synchrony Bank.

eBay MC SYNCB may be on your credit report as a hard inquiry. This usually happens when you apply for an eBay Extras Mastercard card issued by Synchrony Bank.

With the eBay Mastercard, you can earn up to 5 reward points for every $1 you spend on eBay. For every 1,500 reward points you earn, you’ll get a $10 credit. You also earn reward points each time you use your eBay Mastercardto pay for items such as groceries, gas, and more.

What is a hard inquiry?

A hard inquiry occurs any time you apply for new credit and the lender or creditor runs a credit check. It can be for a mortgage, apartment, car loan, credit card, insurance policy, cell phone, and sometimes even a job application.

Hard inquiries will typically only drop your credit score by a few points. However, if you have too many, especially in a short period of time, they can really start to add up and do some damage.

What is a soft inquiry?

A soft inquiry typically occurs when a company checks your credit history as part of a background check. It can also happen when a credit card issuer or lender checks your credit to prequalify you for an offer. Sometimes a soft inquiry might even be pulled by an existing creditor just checking on your current credit situation.

Soft inquiries do not have an impact on your credit scores.

How long do hard inquiries stay on your credit report?

Whether you get approved for the eBay Mastercard makes no difference. The hard inquiry will remain on your credit report for up to 2 years. Each time you make an inquiry, it is recorded by one or all of the three major credit reporting agencies: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion.

Unauthorized Inquiries

If you don’t recognize the inquiry, or you are sure you didn’t make the inquiry, contact Synchrony Bank and ask them why an inquiry was made. The creditor’s name should be listed under the hard inquiry section on your credit report.
