      Marcus by Goldman Sachs refuses to delete my account. I have cleared my account and moved all my money to other financial institutions. In this day of age, all companies are being hacked, I make it a habit to close/delete accounts no longer required. When I spoke to customer support they informed me the are not allowed/able to delete accounts. How can an institution the size of Goldman Sachs not be able to delete an account that is no longer utilized???

      I made payment on account and it says declined. I used **************** because the other account should not have been in the apple pay account. When I try to contact them through the app- it blocks me. It is not my phone, it is them. It has been that way for over a month. they have also erased my previous documentation that is always in the app- I had a previous complaints about their mistakes and they cannot block me from contacting them via the app. I have money in this account to cover the payment, so there is no way this was declined.

      I used their ** credit card to purchase tires in March of 2022. I paid the full balance of the charge ($889) on my statement. I was late by a few hours. So I accrued an interest charge of about $8. I called into customer service and discussed the situation and I paid the interest charge in full. I received more emails and charges. I called into customer service again to understand the situation. They stated that my account was like a four-leaf clover and they will fill a dispute for all of the charges. I continue to receive emails and charges to the account that I paid in full two times. I refuse to continue to give this company money its is a SCAM. DO NOT APPLY FOR OR USE THE ** CREDIT CARD.

      I am rejecting this response because: Payment amount due was supplied to me by a customer service agent. I paid the amount told to me in full $8.80 and still received more charges. I have since paid the card off for the third time. About $34.00 and the agent stated that I will have to pay it off for the ***** time to really pay it off. This is scammy and a poor business practice and the community needs to know to avoid this company at all cost. Stay away from this Credit Card many many better choices in the market place. Scam!

      On 1/5/22, I tried to transfer all my fund in brokerage account to fidelity brokerage account. The account is locked. I tried to contact the Marcus to unlock account for 3 times. The marcus wanted to do the three-way identification verification with Fidelity. The first time, the call failed since the holding time was too long with the Fideility and they suggest me to call back. The second time, I contacted Marcus again, and Marcus had long time to connect their fraud center and promised to call back but never call back. The third time, I called, they connect quickly to the fraud center but the call dropped once its connected to fraud center. I just want to have my account unlocked and have my money transferred. Since part of the fund is to be used to close the house purchased that will be closed soon. And also part of the money I need to pay off some medical expense.Can you just unlock my account instead of me to calling everyday and problem is not solved ? I felt like its a scam that I cannot take my money when I need it

      I'm writing about my online saving account was closed without clear explanation, and more importantly I cannot access the funds at this time. On 1/5/23, I requested a transfer of $700K to my linked verified checking account at BOA as I have just signed a contract of home purchase in the morning and I need to use the funds toward down payment. I spoke to a customer representative, and he helped me initiated an ACH transfer. At first, the transfer was made successfully, and the transaction also appeared in the mobile app. After 2 hours, I received an email from Marcus Bank saying "Please call us back" but they never called me in the first place. So, I called them. after a long wait, they connected me to a specialist and told me that they have closed my account and the transfer was voided. She didn't provide any reason why they close my account and just told me to call back tomorrow and ended the call in a rush. I called in again and reached to another specialist named *****. This time I was told that my account was locked, and in order to unlock it that Marcus will mail a form for me to fill, sign, notarize, and mail back to them. My identity was verified every time when I first connected to an agent. The transfer is also going to a verified checking account which is the same one I used to transfer money in. I have also been verified using a One Time Code Verification method with a Marcus agent before, but ***** said he couldn't use this method without explanation and claimed that the form was the only way. I found his words very unconvincing. Now, I have lost visibility and control of my money, and I really need to use the fund urgently toward home purchase.

      I opened Marcus Goldman Savings account a few months ago. However, they constantly locks my account for security concerns.Every time I want to make external transfer to any banks whether its initiated at Marcus or the external banks, Goldman would require me to call in and make excessive confirmations with phone representative.

      I made a transaction to my chase saving account from my Marcus by Goldman Sachs account for $1,8000 (for tuition). Marcus by Goldman Sachs locked my account and claimed that they have called me but was unable to reach me that is why my account was locked(I have not received any call from them). I read their instructions on the email I received and called back, which I provided all the information they needed correctly (including my SSN), the custom service agent transfer me to another agent called *****. ***** said my calling phone number does not match the record which is not true because that is my only phone number in the U.S She first somehow admitted that phone number does not match is the reason the account was locked, then she refused to confirm why the account was locked. ***** later said she will mail me an affidavit of identity which she cannot guarantee when is the arrival and I also need to mail the form back. I asked for online form to download and mailed back, she refused. I was not satisfied with the blurry process, so I called again and providing the exact same information, which I got a note on my file, which does not help at all. This has caused extreme unconvinced and lost to me, if I passed the tuition due-date, I will have to pay a late fee to school. Also, if my account was locked, I am not sure if the assets in it was safe because I cannot access it. Further, if the account will be locked without telling me any information, that is against my rights on using the account solely. Last but not the least, if the account was locked, would the monthly rate still apply to my saving? if no, who is going to bear the lost?
