Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau,
I understand that the CFPB has filed a statement of interest in the Synapse bankruptcy case, indicating their belief that Synapse may have violated the Consumer Financial Protection Act. I am writing to provide a personal statement regarding the financial and emotional harm I have experienced as a result of the account disruptions tied to Synapse Financial Technologies and its associated partner banks and fintech platforms.
My Background
I was a customer of [insert name of your fintech platform — e.g., Yotta, Juno, etc.], which used Synapse Financial Technologies to facilitate banking services. My account was held at Evolve Bank & Trust and was frozen on or around May 11, 2024, without warning.
