I was informed that this fraud account was opened with an address, phone number, and email address that is all fraudulent information. When I called the fraud department, they said that the account is no longer in my name with Goldman sachs. I requested a debt of validation letter and they keep sending the validation letter to the address on this fraudulent account that is located in *******, **. I have never lived in *******, ** and I reside in the state of *********. I have neither engaged in business transactions with this company nor entered into any agreements. Hence, it is unjustified for this company to report a fraudulent account that I have no knowledge of. This situation infringes upon my rights as a consumer, as outlined by the **** and *****.

I received a text message on May 23, 2025 asking if a ****** dollar charge for Six Flags in ********** was my charge. I replied no, I live in ************ and had no intention of going to ********** for any reason. I then immediately called the credit card administration, ******, through Goldman Sachs. I told them that the charge was fraudulent and not mine. I was told that the charge was blocked and the card, a virtual card, was canceled. They helped me to get a new virtual card number and I said goodnight. The next day I looked at the app for my account and saw they paid the charge for some reason. I called again and was told that "OH, that's our mistake, we'll just file a dispute and get rid of it." I said ok. I spoke to the ****************** and filed a dispute. A few days later I received an email telling me that I was found against and I have to pay this. I called again and told them the story about the text, the call, the second call and the dispute filed, and how had they not paid it, like they were suppose to do, this would have never happened. Again they apologized and said they would re-file the dispute and everything I said happened was supported by what their system showed so just wait and the charge would be gone. Since that time I have had to call back three to four times, maybe more, to file the dispute again each time. I don't understand how their system shows that everything I have said is true and their dispute people agree with me, but they keep saying it's my charge. Even though the next day, May 24, 2025, three orders were placed at a ********, in **********, on that card number, they were denied of course, since the number was shut down. Then the day after that another three orders at a ******** in ********** was placed with that same card number, again the card number was shut down and the order was rejected. I don't know what to tell them. I have done all the right things and they still won't admit that it's not my charge.Business Response

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 day this charge was placed I answered their text, no it was not my charge, I called and reported it within a few minutes of it happening, and called the next day, which I was then informed that the first attempt was denied, but another attempt was run 2 seconds later which slipped through. My version of events coinsides with their computer logs. Also there were additional charges from the same town for the next 2 days that were denied. As well as I havent been to ********** ever. I live in ************. If I bought the tickets but never went to ********** how did I use them. This is a bank mistake and they don't want to admit to it and have to pay. I don't understand how stupid you have to be to look in your computer and see you sent a text, response was not my charge, customer calls and says not my charge, customer gets new virtual card not my charge, same card from tickets, now deactivated, is tried to be used 6 more times over the next 2 days, not my charge. Dispute supervisors admit it was the banks fault, it just slipped in by mistake but a dispute will take care of it, not my charge. How much ********, that's in their computers, needs to be shown. What evidance can I show, a nonexistent plane ticket that says not going to ********** leaving from gate a7? So the tickets were bought and redeemed, couldn't be by someone else, especially since I denied the charge since it happened. This is the most idiotic company I have ever heard from.
In order for the BBB to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.

This company does not honor regulation E, and it sides with scam artists and criminal activity. New York state scalping laws prohibit more than a 10% markup for entertainment ticket resale activity. GoTickets marked them up 100% in violation of New York state law. Within a day of purchasing from GoTickets, I realized that they did not actually have the tickets when my ********** account remained empty. I then realized that GoTickets wasn't the official ticket vendor. I had been tricked. I reported the fraud, but Goldman Sachs refused to back me up on this even though it's clear they violated New York state law. The ************************* counts on banks to uphold the law, but you can't count on this bank. They will side with scam artists and criminals; therefore, I don't recommend doing business with this bank, even though their interest rates are tempting. If you get scammed, they won't have your back, and that will cost you.Business Response

Dear Apple Card Support,I am writing to formally request the return of an overpayment made to my Apple Card account.

Unfortunately, I have received conflicting and unclear information regarding the process and timeline for issuing a refund. This has caused unnecessary confusion and financial inconvenience.Please review my account and initiate the refund of the full credit balance without further delay.

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 30, 2025. The Bank appreciates the opportunity to address the concerns raised by ****** ****** (the Customer)related to a credit balance refund. The Bank conducted an investigation and confirmed an inadvertent communication error occurred. According to the Banks records, the Customer contacted the Bank on June 30, 2025, regarding a credit balance on the account. The Customer received credits from the merchant Apple in the amount of $1,950.00 and $387.72 on June 27, 2025, and June 28, 2025.Additionally, the Customer made a payment on June 28, 2025, in the amount of $1,709.21. When merchant credits are applied to Apple Card accounts, they are applied to the Customers revolving line, because the revolving line can incur interest if the statement balance is not paid in full by the due date. Because the Customer had an Apple Card Monthly Installment balance that was still due,the Customer did not have an overall credit balance that could be refunded.When Customers have a credit balance on the revolving line, it can be used towards new purchases on the Apple Card or used to meet the minimum payment due each month for the Apple Card Monthly Installment. The Customer made a purchase with the ********************** in the amount of $1,738.14 that used the credit balance. The Customer has since made a payment on July 2, 2025, that satisfied both the installment and revolving balance. The Bank regrets the frustrations the Customer experienced.
