“GECRB” is a code used by credit reporting agencies. It stands for General Electric Capital Retail Bank. That was the name of GE’s financial division before it became Synchrony Bank in 2015.
If you have a credit card originally issued by GE Capital, that would explain the “GECRB” notation on your credit report. And the company’s transition to Synchrony Bank would explain why “SYNCB” might be listed, too. That’s possible if you applied for an account with them in the past two years.
