      Goldman Sachs Bank USA (the Bank) received the above-referenced complaint related to the Apple Card via the Better Business Bureau (BBB) Complaint Portal on June 13, 2025. The Bank appreciates the opportunity to address the concerns raised by ***** ******** (the Customer) related to payments made on the ************************** conducted an investigation and confirmed no Bank error occurred. According to the Banks records, the Customer opened an Apple Card and consented to the Apple Card Customer Agreement on February 05, 2020. This agreement details the cardholders payment obligations including that the cardholder promises to pay all amounts charged to the account under the agreement, including all transactions and all other amounts billed. The cardholder can reference the Promise to Pay section of the Apple Card Customer Agreement.
      According to the Banks records, the Customer enrolled in automatic payments on April 25, 2025. The Bank processes payments in accordance with the automatic payment instructions set up by the Customer. As a result, the Bank processed a payment in the amount of $3,510.28 on April 30, 2025. The Customer also issued a one-time payment in the amount of $661.79 on April 30, 2025. The Bank confirmed both attempted payments were returned and billed back to the account by May 13, 2025. Due to the returned payments from the linked Bank account ending in 1829, the automatic payment series cancelled. Notifications regarding the returned payments were sent to the email address provided by the Customer on May 05, 2025 and May 13, 2025.
      To avoid interest charges, Customers are required to pay the monthly balance in full as of the end of the previous month by the due date every month. If the monthly balance is not paid in full on or before the due date, Customers are charged interest on the monthly balance for the days until the customer fully pays it off. This is also known as trailing interest. Additional details regarding how the Bank calculates interest can be found in the Apple Card Customer Agreement. Paying the monthly balance stops additional interest from accruing. However, due to the returned payments on May 13, 2025, the April 2025 monthly balance was not paid in full, as a result, the account was assessed interest on the balance in the amount of $41.24. As a courtesy, on June 02, 2025 the Bank applied a credit in the amount of $25.00 to partially reimburse the interest charges assessed to the account. The Bank is unable to provide the Customer with additional interest reimbursement.
      Based on the above details, the Bank kindly requests for this complaint to be closed.

      I have never received my signature required package from **** because a **** worker claimed they gave my package to a random person who signed for that. For getting a refund I had to get an official letter from **** that I didnt receive a package but they denied. I had to file a dispute with a bank and I attached like 30 files of the evidence including a fake signature that doesnt belong to me and looks like a toddlers doodle and a police report. The situation started almost 2 years ago and every 3 billing times they keep denying on refunding me telling I didnt provide enough evidences. The last time I reopened a dispute was on May this year. I was hesitating if I have to file a complaint against the bank or **** and ended up doing it against the bank because its them who hold my money and dont resolve the super obvious fraud situation. If it will help I can file agains **** as well because I think that person who stole it is an actual mailman that apparently worked there temporarily because I know all of our mailmen and I have never seen that one nor before nor after the the situation happened and **** just were pretty abusive when I tried just to talk to them. I even have a screenshot of the email from them where they claimed the mailman gave my package away to a stranger so its not he said/she said, its an official email from them. Thank you!

      ******** conducted an investigation and confirmed an inadvertent processing error occurred. The Customer initially disputed the transaction between November 21, 2023, and March 22, 2025. ******** applied a temporary credit while the dispute was investigated.

      I am writing to formally submit a complaint against ********** regarding my ongoing issues with my account and the lack of resolution from their customer service representatives.Since January, I have been experiencing significant problems with my ***** account, specifically regarding the activation of my card. Despite filing numerous complaints and reaching out to ***** support multiple times, my card remains inactive. Each time I contact customer support, I am advised to update my phone, which I have done, yet the issue persists.Additionally, I have experienced frequent call drops during these interactions, complicating communication. I am often told that my concerns will be escalated and that I will receive a callback within two weeks. However, as of now, it is June, and I have yet to receive any follow-up or resolution regarding my issue. Each call results in representatives having no record of my previous complaints or the details of my situation, leading to further frustration.This ongoing issue has caused me significant stress and financial hardship, as I frequently relied on this card for transactions. I am requesting a monetary resolution to compensate for the difficulties and inconveniences I have endured as a result of *****'s failure to address and resolve this matter.I hope that the BBB can help facilitate a resolution to this ongoing problem.Thank you for your attention to this matter.

      I made a purchase in January 2023 for a collectible figure of The Batman produced by ****************** through a company called Toys Wonderland via their website. The company eventually changed their name to ***********, and then they seemingly closed up shop and went out of business. The figure cost $358.35, so I elected to go with a payment installment plan using my Apple Card. I made a down payment of $71.89 in January 2023, and then I made 9 follow up payments, once per month, of about $31 until I paid it off. Thats ten total payments. Unfortunately, I never received the item I ordered from Toys Wonderland. I disputed the transactions with Goldman Sachs/***** so I could get my money back. The original down payment dispute was resolved in my favor eventually, after many months of waiting and communicating with their customer service multiple times. The disputed second payment, from February 2023, was also resolved in my favor. But for some reason, the rest of the remaining payments, totaling $******, were not resolved in my favor. Apple/Goldman Sachs claimed there was no proof I didnt receive the item. I gave them all the proof I had, and still they denied me. I reopened the claims multiple times and was denied multiple times. Why did they approve the first two claims but deny the other 8? They are all part of the same purchase, which I never received, so it doesnt make any sense. I would like for them to resolve my claim in my favor and approve the refund for the remaining ****** for the item I never received.

      Date: 06/20/2025

      Better Business Bureau:



      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:


      Goldman Sachs states that various payment reminders were sent regarding my Apple Card account; however, I did not receive any notifications—by mail, email, or through the app—regarding a missed or upcoming payment. I only became aware of the issue after discovering the negative impact to my credit report. At no point prior did I receive any alerts, messages, or correspondence regarding a late or missed payment, which I would have immediately acted upon had I been properly informed.

      Additionally, I was under the full impression that the auto payment I had set up was fully functional and configured to promptly pay the amount due each month. This system failed without my consent or knowledge, and I received no indication from Apple Card or Goldman Sachs that the payment was not processed as intended.

      The bank’s response also acknowledges a “communication error,” yet simultaneously insists that all reminders were successfully delivered, without providing any meaningful evidence or explanation for this discrepancy. There appears to be a technology issue that has not been properly investigated or addressed, despite my repeated concerns.

      Furthermore, the payment I made on January 7, 2025 was not a partial or minimum payment—it was made to completely satisfy the full balance on the account. Once I became aware of the issue, I acted promptly and in good faith to resolve it.

      Given that the bank’s own systems failed to notify me properly and that a communication issue has been admitted, I believe it is reasonable to request that the negative credit reporting be re-evaluated. At the very least, I ask that Goldman Sachs conduct a thorough review of the technical concerns I have raised, rather than closing the matter without meaningful resolution.

      Please update the record to reflect that I do not accept the business’s response as a satisfactory resolution.


      In order for the BBB to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.

      Goldman Sachs Bank USA (the “Bank”) received
      the above-referenced complaint related to Apple Card via the Better Business
      Bureau (“BBB”) Complaint Portal on June 25, 2025. The Bank appreciates the
      opportunity to address the concerns raised by Jeffrey Crabtree (the
      “Customer”) related to credit reporting for the Apple Card.
      The Bank conducted an investigation and confirmed no Bank error occurred with
      the credit reporting for the Apple Card. According to the Bank’s records, the
      Customer opened an Apple Card and consented to the Apple Card Customer
      Agreement on August 28, 2023. As stated in the Apple Card Customer Agreement,
      the Bank may report information about the account to the Credit Reporting
      Agencies, which includes but is not limited to Late Payments, Missed
      Payments, or other defaults on the account. The Bank successfully delivered
      Statement Available Reminders and Payment Due Reminders to the email address
      provided by the Customer. The Bank does not have record of the Customer
      scheduling automatic payments.
      The Bank confirmed the account was reported accurately to the Credit
      Reporting Agencies. The Customer did not make a payment to satisfy at least
      the minimum amount due by November 30, 2024, until January 7, 2025. As a
      result, the Bank reported the account past due to the Credit Reporting
      Agencies. The Bank is obligated to report accurately to Credit Reporting
      Agencies and is unable to update the Customer’s credit reporting.
      The Bank does not have further information to provide and considers this
      matter closed.

      Customer Answer

      Date: 07/09/2025

      Better Business Bureau:



      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:


      Thank you for the response from Goldman Sachs Bank USA regarding my Apple Card account.
      While I appreciate the Bank’s investigation, I must respectfully disagree with their conclusion and feel that key facts in my complaint have been disregarded or inaccurately represented.
      Goldman Sachs ultimately closed my account after admitting there was an internal communication error that contributed to the issues I experienced. Despite acknowledging this internal failure, the Bank has provided no documentation or proof to clarify what went wrong or how this impacted my ability to manage the account.
      The Bank claims it “successfully delivered Statement Available Reminders and Payment Due Reminders to the email address provided by the Customer.” However, this has not been proven. I never received these communications, and the Bank has not provided any evidence—such as email delivery logs or timestamps—to confirm their claim.
      Additionally, the Bank’s assertion that I did not have automatic payments set up is also incorrect. I did have auto payment enabled, and at one point, the Bank wrongfully pulled a double payment from my account. Following this error, the auto payment feature was disabled without my knowledge or consent, directly contributing to the missed payment issue.
      Furthermore, the Bank states:
      “The Customer did not make a payment to satisfy at least the minimum amount due by November 30, 2024, until January 7, 2025. As a result, the Bank reported the account past due to the Credit Reporting Agencies.”
      Based on this timeline, it is inaccurate to report the account as 60 days past due. Even if you calculate from November 30 to January 7, this constitutes less than 40 days, not 60. Therefore, this reporting is factually incorrect and should be reversed or corrected at minimum, especially in light of the Bank's own internal issues that contributed to the payment delay.
      I am disappointed that Goldman Sachs has chosen to close this matter without adequately addressing or correcting these legitimate concerns. I respectfully request that the BBB keep this complaint on file as unresolved, and I welcome any guidance on further steps I can take to dispute this credit reporting through other appropriate channels.
      Sincerely,
      ******* ********

Goldman Sachs has failed to do so, and their actions have caused me unnecessary harm, stress, and damage to my credit profile.I am requesting that Goldman Sachs:1.Permanently remove and cease reporting this fraudulent Apple Card account to all credit bureaus (Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax).2.Provide written confirmation that the account has been closed and will not reappear.3.Issue a formal apology for their failure to comply with consumer protection laws and for the impact this has had on my financial standing.I am attaching any necessary documentation to support my claim.

      Better Business Bureau:

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

      [Your Answer Here]

       

      That Apple Card was not opened by me and opened fraudulently due to my identity being stolen. I have submitted proof to that along with proof of my identity and filed *** reports stating that as well. There is no proof or a wet ink signed contract by me because *** never opened an Apple Card which is probably why they closed the account. They are reporting missed payments when I dont even have access to the account. If they do not remove that account from all of my consumer FICO reports within 4 business days I will sue under the **** and FDCPA laws.
