      I have asked this business a plethora of times for a copy of my any contract/agreement established with this account as well all statements/documents associated with the months allegedly claiming I was late. Months letter still no documents so I am now requesting the documents be provided electronically. They continuously lie about sending them out via mail.

      concerns raised by ***** ******** (the “Customer”) related to debt validation
      for Apple Card.

      The Bank conducted an investigation and confirmed no Bank error occurred.
      According to the Bank’s records, the Customer opened the account on December
      25, 2019. During the application process, the Customer is provided with and
      must consent to the Apple Card Terms and Conditions, which discloses that the
      Customer agrees that the Bank may report information to the Credit Reporting
      Agencies regarding the account, which includes but is not limited to Late
      Payments, Missed Payments, or other defaults on the account.

      The Customer’s account did not receive the required minimum payment due for
      the months of March 2020, April 2020, May 2020, June 2020, July 2020, August
      2020, and September 2020. The Bank sent Payment Due Reminders, Missed Payment
      Reminders and Eligible for Bureau Reporting reminders to the email address
      associated with the Apple ID provided by the Customer when the Apple Card
      account was opened. As a result, the Bank reported the account to the credit
      reporting agencies as past due. The Customer’s account was charged off on
      September 30, 2020.

      The Bank has no record of the Customer requesting debt validation prior to

      Agreement and 10 months of statement history showing records of transactions
      and payments to validate the balance and the debt owed on November 1, 2023.

      On 10/11/2023 my husband **** and I authorized our banking institution Prospera Credit Union to pay in full the balance of our creidt card for $4,422.29.
      On 10/12/2023 Prospera Credit Union mailed a cashier's check to Goldman Sachs in which the cashier's check was cashed with a Goldman's Sachs endorsement on 10/17/2023. My due date for the credit card was 10/21/2023. The payment has not been applied to my account and unlawful additional interest charges have been added to the account on 10/25/2023. I called Prospera Credit Union on 10/23/2023 to request documentation for the payment to find out why my balance had not been paid in full. On 10/24/2023 I called Goldman Sachs customer service to inquire on where the payment was as it was not applied to my account. They stated they could not find the payment and would investigate it. I have called everyday as there has not been any resolution and they fail to call me back as promised over and over again each day. I want the payment of $4,422.29 applied to my account, the $84.61 interest charges removed and the goodwill monetary gesture they promised honored. Multiple 2 day timers and 12 hour timers of return phone calls have not been honored on Goldman Sachs behalf. Please help me resolve this issue. I have provided them with the cancelled cashier's check with Goldman Sachs endorsement and yet they have NOT started to even resolve this issue.

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because:

      Goldman Sachs charged additional interest on 10/25/2023 that totaled $84.61.  The interest was charged even though the balance was paid in full by the cashiers check our bank sent on our behalf that Goldman Sachs cashed on 10/17/2023.  My due date was 10/21/2023.  I do not feel that it is lawful to charge interest on a zero balance.  $60.89 was the remainder of the $84.61 that Goldman Sachs would not correct.




      Sincerely,



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

      Goldman Sachs Bank USA (the “Bank”) received the
      above-referenced complaint related to the GM Card via the Better Business
      Bureau (“BBB”) Complaint Portal on November 7, 2023. The Bank appreciates the
      opportunity to address the concerns raised by ******** **** (the “Customer”)
      related to interest charges.
      As provided in the Bank’s previous response, the Bank
      conducted an investigation and confirmed no Bank error occurred. The Customer
      contacted the Bank on October 24, 2023, reporting a missing check payment of
      $4,422.29. The Bank initiated an investigation to be completed within 10
      business days. The Bank located the payment on October 30, 2023, and posted to
      the account with a received date of October 17, 2023. Interest credits totaling
      $23.72 posted to the account on October 30, 2023. The Bank advises the Customer
      to include a full name and 16-digit card number with future payments to prevent
      delays.
      To avoid interest charges, customers are required to pay the
      monthly balance in full as of the end of the previous cycle 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 GM Card Customer Agreement.
      According to the Bank’s records, the account was not paid in
      full for the statement generated on August 24, 2023, with a due date of
      September 21, 2023. As a result, the Customer was charged $88.79 of interest.
      Since the Customer did not pay the August monthly balance in full, the Bank
      charged interest on the September balance for the days until the Customer fully
      paid the monthly balance. The Customer paid the September monthly balance in
      full with the check payment on October 17, 2023, so was charged interest on the
      balance until that date. As a result, the remaining interest of $60.89 is the
      trailing interest charged on October 24, 2023. The Bank is unable to provide
      further monetary compensation.
      Based on the above details, the Bank kindly requests for
      this complaint to be closed.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The cashiers check provided full account payment.  $84.61 interest charges were applied on 10/25/2023.  If the balance was paid in full no interest charges should have been applied on 10/25/2023.  Goldman Sachs should credit back the remaining $60.89.

      In my prior correspondence, I expressed doubts regarding the accuracy of the negative accounts detailed in my consumer report. Despite earlier investigations, these accounts remain unresolved, significantly impacting my credit profile. It is imperative that as a consumer, I am provided with an accurate representation of my credit history, as mandated by the FCRA.

      Furthermore, I wish to reiterate that while elements such as payment history, credit utilization, and other pertinent factors play a pivotal role in credit scoring models like FICO, they are distinct from the contents of my consumer report. These factors are used to assess creditworthiness, and their influence should not overshadow the veracity of information present in my consumer report.

      Considering the FCRA, I draw your attention to 15 USC 1681A, a critical provision outlining exclusions from inclusion in a consumer report. It is my contention that the negative accounts under dispute may fall within the bounds of information that should not be reported. Citing the relevant section from 15 USC 1681A:

      "The term report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report; communication of that information among persons related by common ownership or affiliated by corporate control; or communication of other information among persons related by common ownership or affiliated by corporate control, if it is clearly and conspicuously disclosed to the consumer that the information may be communicated among such persons and the consumer is given the opportunity, before the time that the information is initially communicated, to direct that such information not be communicated among such persons."

      Goldman Sachs Bank USA (the “Bank”) received the above-referenced complaint
      related to Apple Card via the Better Business Bureau (“BBB”) Complaint Portal
      on October 26, 2023. The Bank appreciates the opportunity to address the
      concerns raised by ****** ** ***** (the “Customer”) related to credit reporting
      for Apple Card.

      The Bank conducted an investigation and confirmed due to a processing error,
      the Customer was incorrectly reported to the credit reporting agencies after
      being removed as a Participant. The Customer agreed and was added as a
      Participant on another Customer’s Apple Card account on November 3, 2021, and
      agreed to be reported to the credit reporting agencies. On April 28, 2022, the
      Customer was removed as a participant from the Apple Card account. However due
      to the processing error, the Apple Card the Customer was removed from was still
      being reported. The Bank submitted a request on October 30, 2023, to remove the
      adverse credit reporting after April 28, 2022, and update the reporting to show
      the Participant as terminated. The Customer should allow up to 30 days for the
      change to reflect on the credit reporting. The Bank is unable to remove any
      reporting prior to the Customer’s removal from the Apple Card account. The Bank
      regrets the frustrations the Customer has experienced.

      Based on the above details, the Bank kindly requests for this complaint to be
      closed.

      On 08-04-23 at 4:05 PM I made a purchase at Giant Eagle, **** ** **** **.., Erie, PA 16505. My credit card was denied three times so I paid for my order in cash, $57.02. I called Marcus at 4:36 PM and I spoke with Syed (spelling?) about my GM card and I was told there were no problems with my card. He said the amount had not yet posted and that I needed to check later in the day to see if it processed, which it did show up on my account. On 08-05-23 I initiated a dispute with Nyelli (sp?) and I was told to contact Giant Eagle. I was given a temporary credit and they would check with the merchant; they also said it could take up to 60-90 days to resolve and I would be contacted when they made their decision. I went back to the store and spoke with Angela at the C/S desk & she said the store couldn't help me. On 08-07-23 I uploaded a copy of my cash receipt to Marcus. On 10-24-23 my dispute was denied so I called again, i spoke with Adi (sp?) and she said she would resubmit my claim, she could see that I had paid cash, and she would annotate my account and submit to her superior for a review I have not received any additional feedback from Marcus.

      I am writing to file a formal complaint against Apple Credit Card for an unauthorized charge of $29.99 and their subsequent failure to address my concerns.Unauthorized Charge: I discovered a $29.99 charge on my Apple Credit Card account, for which no email receipt was provided, and no details were visible on the mobile app.Inadequate Customer Support: I found it extremely challenging to locate a customer service contact for Apple. The contact number is not clearly listed on their website and turns out to be for Goldman Sachs, not Apple.Dismissive Support Staff: Upon reaching out to Goldman Sachs, the representative was condescending and unhelpful. My call was terminated without resolving the issue.Unhelpful ***************** My attempts to seek help on the *************** Webpage were fruitless. I was directed to another Apple site with conflicting information, stating that issues must be addressed in writing and mailed.This experience is unacceptable and portrays both Apple and Goldman Sachs in a highly unprofessional manner. I am seeking your intervention to facilitate direct and effective communication with either Apple or Goldman Sachs to resolve this unauthorized charge.Your prompt attention to this matter would be highly appreciated.

      I called Aug. 2023 to pay off my credit card. I was told to call back on Aug. 31, 2023 because it would it be cheaper. So I called on Aug. 31,2023 to pay off my credit card. This time I was told $3641.31 would pay off my credit card expect for the $198.77 is what i owe on my iphone. I waited a few days kept watching for my credit card to go to zero balance and it never did. So I called back towards the end of the week of Sept. 2023 and I asked about the charges still showing, I was told it can take up to 2wks before it goes to zero balance. I was ready to pay off my iphone and I was told I had to wait till my credit card goes to zero balance. Now this has became an issue because now I'm being told I owe this balance that keeps adding up due to the interest. I spoke with ********* (manager) he supposed to check into this and either call or email never heard from him. So I called Oct. 9, 2023 spoke with **** and I explained everything to her she told me my next step was to file a complaint since ********* didn't follow throught, so I did. All I wanted to do is to pay off my iphone is what I have left to pay on my Apple credit card (Goldman Sachs). Noone won't accept my payment. I'm willing to pay the $198.77 and nothing more because I was told that's all I owe not $5 hundred and some dollars.

      Goldman Sachs Bank *** (the Bank) received the above-referenced complaint related to the Apple Card via the Better Business Bureau (BBB) Complaint Portal on October 22, 2023. ******** appreciates the opportunity to address the concerns raised by ******************************* (the Customer)related to payments, customer service, interest charges, and account balance.

      ******** conducted an investigation and confirmed inadvertent communication errors occurred. The Customer contacted the Bank on August 29, 2023, August 31,2023, and September 2, 2023. The Customer was not provided with billing explanations.

      The total balance shown on the statement generated July 31, 2023, was $3,862.08, with a monthly balance of $3,666.31 and a due date of August 31,2023. The total balance on the account included the remaining balance present on Apple Card Monthly Installment plans. The Customer was provided with the accurate total and monthly balances during interactions on August 29, 2023, and August 31, 2023. The Customer opted to pay the remaining monthly balance of $3,641.31 on August 31, 2023, but did not pay the entirety of the total balance shown on the July statement or new purchases made in August. As a result, the total balance shown on the statement generated August 31, 2023, was $579.77,with a monthly balance of $403.66 and a due date of September 30, 2023. Monthly statements can be viewed in the Wallet Application or online by logging in using the Apple ID associated with the account at card.Apple.com. ******** confirmed that the balance is correct and accurate.

      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. The Customer was charged trailing interest charges of $82.47 on August 31, 2023, and $8.62 on September 30, 2023. The Customer may see an additional trailing interest charge on the upcoming statement.

      As a courtesy, the Bank applied credits of $25.00 on August 31, 2023, and $66.09 on October 25, 2023. ******** is unable to provide further compensation.******** contacted the Customer on October 25, 2023, to provide an accurate billing explanation and scheduled a payment for the Customer. ******** regrets the frustrations the Customer experienced.

      Marcus by Goldman Sachs accepted my money online on January 7, 2023 to open up a 6-month CD, a 1-year CD, and a high-yield savings account. Roughly a month later my account was closed for reasons still undiscerned, and now they refuse to return my funds to my sending account. They have essentially robbed me.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      Although the bank DID indeed close my accounts, it however, has NEVER returned $7,500 of my funds to me. All I am asking is that Goldman Sachs RETURNS my remaining $7,500 to me by either ACH transfer back to my original (sending) account, or by issuing me a cashier's check and sending it via certified mail to my address on file with them (and the BBB). All I want is my money returned to me. Please help me to expedite this and THEN I would not mind my complaint being closed. Thank you...

      I am a victim of Identity Theft. GOLDMAN SACHS & CO has obtained my financial identifying information by way of Identity Theft in accordance with O.C.G.A 16-9-12(a)(1) and has shared my information with its contracted customers EQUIFAX, EXPERIAN, & TRANSUNION in which they unlawfully included this alleged account in my consumer report in exchange for monetary compensation. I have no knowledge of this alleged account that you are furnishing to the credit bureaus: Account Number# ************. I have never applied to use any of your services. I have never given anyone permission or a permissible purpose to use my personal information to apply to any account. I have sent Affidavits Certified Mail Return Receipt Requested along with an Affidavit of Mailing to GOLDMAN SACHS AND CO that have gone unrebutted. In commerce, an unrebutted an Affidavit stands truth. If the claims you are making are true, I need someone who can bind your corporation to sign an Affidavit under penalty of perjury so that I may hold someone liable for making false claims against me. Punishing me for non repayment of a debt by furnishing nonpublic information without my consent to unauthorized third parties as a means to ruin my financial reputation is a violation of 18 USC 894, which the furnisher could be criminally held liable for 20 yrs for collections of extensions of credit by extortionate means. No Consent gives grounds to Identity Theft and 18 USC 1028 makes it a crime to misuse someone's identifying information, whether personal or financial.

      Attached are documents i.e. FTC Identity Theft Report to substantiate my claim. Cease all reporting of this fraudulent account. Delete and purge me from your system.

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because: I have no knowledge of the alleged  account or any login details to that alleged account. Not to mention, it’s listed under a address that doesn’t belong to me nor have I ever stayed and all three bureaus have indeed flagged the address as fraudulent. The account was opened without my consent, authorization or permissible purpose using my confidential information. I have no way of knowing any login information for the alleged account with Marcus by Goldman Sachs. All I have is the account’s number and that is due to it being listed on my consumer report. Experian, Equifax, Transunion and Plaid, are all paid services that you (Marcus by Goldman Sachs) use which have all agreed that they have been apart of a data breach 2022 & 2023 which caused millions of customers, including myself, personal private information to be leaked for hackers, fraudsters and dark web activities. 

      Please be Advised and Noticed that punishing me for the repayment of an alleged debt by furnishing nonpublic information without my consent to unauthorized 3rd parties such as Experian, Equifax, Transunion, as a means to ruin my financial reputation, is a violation of 18 USC 894 and the furnishers “Marcus by Goldman Sachs” could be criminally liable for 20yrs.

      I am rejecting this response because:
      The problem has not been resolved. The transactions are complete, but not without any enormous amount of work on my part and enormous amount of erroneous information supplied and conducted by Marcus. I asked to be contacted by member of the management team and that has not happened. I got a call from a person in the contact center who is asking me if I wanted to make another transaction. Clearly nobody has read my complaint. Clearly nobody from management cares about my complaint. This is the last opportunity for someone in management to contact me to understand why working with Marcus was so problematic and why it is led me to an exit.
