Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I opened up my XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX. I maintained an exceptional payment history never missing a payment, including during the coronavirus COVID pandemic. In XX/XX/XXXX I paid down the complete balance of my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to zero balance. Subsequently, I was told by XXXX XXXX XXXX that my account was closed. It should be noted that at this time I had no lates reported to the credit bureaus as I vigorously maintained an excellent credit history. 

I was Saddened that XXXX XXXX  XXXX unilaterally closed my account, but I was relieved that the balance had been paid in full. When I inquired as to why my account was closed I was told that it was their decision and I was welcome to reapply for credit. 

It is very important to note that since the card was closed I no longer received notifications, alerts or had access to login after they unilaterally closed my account. On XX/XX/XXXX I get an alert from a credit bureau saying I was past due on my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and that my credit score has dropped by XXXX points. This is especially disheartening because I am in the process of purchasing my first home. 

As soon as I received the information from the credit bureau, I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and was informed that despite I paid the balance to zero and despite the account was closed there was accrued interest of {$XXXX} due XXXX XXXX. They agreed that there was no way for me to be informed about the amount due. I further questioned why interest was due when I timely paid the balance in full. 

In addition, they told me that no attempt to alert me. Instead, they just reported incorrectly to credit bureaus. They agreed this was in error but now are refusing to remove the derogatory item from my credit report. I am not at serious risk of losing my home because of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX incorrect and inaccurate reporting to report to credit agencies. 

I feel this is a gross abuse of the credit laws and gross negligence on the part of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am turning to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to report this abuse. I pray that CFPB will be able to assist in this matter and do whatever can be done to prevent future consumers from suffering the same abuse as I have. 

It should be noted that in good faith I have worked long and hard with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  and feel I have been treated rudely and they have taken no accountability. I was told that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX would escalate this matter, but I am out of time on my new home acquisition and may need to cancel my home search due to their gross negligence and abuse. 

The company has already agreed they mad a mistake I have attached their response Thank you for your help and consideration.
