      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:

      The merchant closed my account, so I wasnt able to return the broken watch.


      Please stop emailing me delivery confirmations the fact that the watch was delivered is not in question.


      The issue is that after I opened a dispute, **** closed my account, which prevented me from starting the return process.


      Now Im stuck with a broken watch and no way to resolve it through ****.

      I am submitting this formal complaint against *********** for reporting an inaccurate and unverifiable charge-off account to both ********** and ******* under account number ****************, with a listed balance of $3,009.00. This reporting is not only damaging to my credit profile but appears to be in direct violation of federal consumer protection laws. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, *********** is legally required to report only information that is accurate and verifiable. Furthermore, ********** and Equifax are required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e(b) to ensure that all data they maintain on consumers is held to the standard of maximum possible accuracy. Despite my prior attempts to resolve this matter through formal disputes, *********** has failed to provide any legally sufficient documentation validating the alleged debt, and their responses have been vague, generic, and insufficient to meet the verification obligations set forth under 15 U.S. Code 1681i. The account continues to reflect as a charge-off with a specific balance, yet no contract, account history, or supporting detail has ever been presented to justify its inclusion on my report. Given the widespread and ongoing data breaches affecting financial institutions across the country, it is highly likely that this account was erroneously associated with my credit file due to compromised personal information beyond my control. ******* USAs failure to validate the account while continuing to report it as delinquent is not only irresponsible but also a violation of my rights under federal law. Their inaction and lack of resolution are unacceptable. I am requesting the immediate removal and correction of this inaccurate account from both ********** and *******. *********** has not made a meaningful effort to resolve this issue, and their refusal to comply with the law is causing ongoing and unjust harm to my financial standing.

      This is in regards to a charge dispute. This is extremely straightforward. I ordered a specific model of Thermador. I was shipped a completely different unit (that doesnt even function). I returned the unit. The unit was received by the seller on March 19 and signed for by ****. Tracking number: ********. Tracking link: **************************************************** (Forward Air - freight shipping company). I provided all of the details, most recently on April 9. I spoke with a supervisor who told me this would be expedited for review. I just called today on April 30 and was told by a supervisor ***** that there is no way to escalate the review. This is for DiscountPros for approximately $5400.

      I submitted a dispute for a charge on my credit card and it was categorized incorrectly in the dispute process. I specifically told the representative the item was not as described. She opened the dispute wrong so the dispute was not accepted by the merchant. I would like for Goldman Sachs to make it right and refund me.

      Dear BBB,I am contacting you to share my experience with Goldman Sachs and the Apple card that I was approved for. I was approved for the ***** card about a month ago, using it, paying it on time and no issues until today 4/25/25 I get a notification that the account was closed due to regulatory reasons. Well when asked what the regulatory reason was they could not give me an answer and I believe it was for charges that Goldman brought against my name that was used fraudulently and has since been dismissed by the courts because after investigation it was determined to be opened by someone else using my name. I had to hire an attorney, to get my name cleared and if that is why they closed the account, then they are in the wrong because after the dismissal on 1/15/25 my name should not be associated with Goldman at all and me being a new customer. I firmly believe this is why they closed the account but again if all allegations were dropped because someone used my information then it has nothing to do with me. I am requesting that they reopen and reestablish the credit line and my Apple card. I am also requesting that they remove any association with my name from what took place in 2017 because it was not me. There would be no other reason for them to have closed my account since it was in good standing never late and paid on time after a month.

      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:

       I am contacting you to report what Goldman Sachs did to me and it is in fact unjust.  I applied for the Apple card and was approved and given a $5000 credit line.  It was recommended by Experian based on my credit scores.  It was clear that it was going to be a no ding application but if I decided to accept the approval then it would become a hard inquiry.  I accepted the Apple card offer and the card was attached to my wallet as my primary card for immediate use. I later got notifications that the card is now on all three of my credit bureaus as a new line of credit.

      After normal usage of the card after about a month 4/25/2025 I see a notification that the card has been closed.  Unfortunately, I am unable to attach any transaction history since the account is closed.  All of my transactions were normal transactions a purchase from vending, a purchase from ***** nothing out of the ordinary, that presented anything to be alarmed about.  I contacted Goldman and the agent stated regulatory reasons, and that I would get a letter in the mail.  I never received a letter stating what exactly the regulatory reason is to date.  I did receive in the mail that only stated my account was closed and the balance remaining. I immediately contacted the **** and explained the unjust closure and Goldman replied now with the account was closed because of 'red flags" so they are all over the place with reasons.  I am now at a point where I replied back with what are these "red flags" that gave them a reason to close the account and they have yet been able to tell me.  Again, I ask what are the "red flags"?

      1. I applied using my social security number

      2. I was approved based on my credit

      3 I used the card and pay any balance due

       

      WHAT ARE THE RED FLAGS?

      I applied for the card using my social security number, I was approved, and it is now listed on my credit and I used the card like I would any other card.  They are being unethical with their business practice with me as a consumer.  Lastly, when they replied they addressed something that I didn't even ask about nor did I receive the call that Goldman told me I would receive. Goldman is not being ethical what I hate is they are trying to manhandle the situation.  So I ask again what are the red flags? and also you didn't even address what I mentioned in the letter you copied and pasted what you sent to CFPB.  If they don't resolve the issue my next steps would be ti hire a consumer attorney to fix the issue if they don't prove otherwise.

        

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


      Sincerely,

      ****** ******

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

      [Your Answer Here]

       

      They are copying and pasting the same letter to both you and the *****  Goldman has not come close nor looks as if they are able to provide any information.  Each reply is that I applied for the card, and yea I did and the question is why did you close the account?  I have not received any letter stating why by email not postal!  If you have the letter, simply attach it to this cor***pondence.  You have failed to do this to date!  Also when I call and the ***** account is viewed I was told there are no red flags seen and all of my transactions are what is normal and there are no things that raises any concern with the ***** account. I finally got a call and it was all of 3 minutes that you are working on my case, I never got a chance to explain anything.  This is my first time applying for anything with Goldman and my name was used in 2017 that you tried to sue me for and I sent documents from the court that proved my identity and information was stolen and the case was dismissed due to the error.  Goldman is tying my name to something that wasnt mine and now this is where we are.  I applied for the card, was approved for the card, and used the card and attached my banking information to make payments.  Not sure why they are being unethical and shady with doing the right thing and fixing the issue.  You put a hard inquiry in my credit and closed it the following month.  Do the right thing Goldman!  I even offered to send my ID social security card whatever they needed.  Again

      I got nothing that tells me why the account is closed, so please stop saying I got the reason why because I did NOT and again attach the communication here so that I can see.  I have not into any of the categories to suggest closing the account

      per my contract , so what are the *** flags??

       

       

       

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


      Sincerely,

      ****** ******

      On or about April 16th 2025, Goldman Sachs Bank "froze" both my ************* account and my Apple Credit card. I have contacted Goldman Sachs Bank daily and was only told there was a "security" issue that needed 5 to 7 business days to "clear". On April 22nd my ************* account was "unfrozen", but there was a "bug" that has prevented my Apple Credit card from being "unfrozen" as of April 25th. I would like my Apple Credit Card to be "unfrozen" and an Apple apology/explanation letter sent to all of my vendors where my Apple Credit Card payments did not go through, as well as, letters to the credit reporting agencies indicating that late payments were entirely due to a "bug" at Goldman Sachs Bank. ***: I intend to close my accounts with ********************** Bank.

      Better Business Bureau:

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is unsatisfactory to me and, as a result, I have transferred my savings account to another financial institution.

      I have been given the runaround from Apple Card support since 2023 regarding flights that were diverted then cancelled and ***** is trying to force me to pay for the charges when I never received the services. ***** card support failed to handle my dispute by reviewing and submitting my evidence always claiming they never receive the emails on ***** chat but own up to receiving the emails but not reviewing them when the supervisors call me over the phone. I am not responsible for these charges now and need to be refunded by Apple Card/Goldman Sachs. I am convinced the dispute department does not exists there and they advertise being able to dispute charges when you apply but they are not capable. This is for 2 transactions on June 7th 2023 for $501.45 for each flight.
