Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Getting a credit card — Delay in processing application
Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
I tried to apply for the Apple Card Credit Card online on XXXX While filling out the application through my XXXX, I encountered a problem with my address. The application does not accept XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am a XXXX XXXX XXXX participant in the State of Minnesota, and have been for many years. XXXX XXXX XXXX is a confidentiality program designed to protect my physical address so that I can not be found by the person my life is in danger from. The legal address that I was issued by the Office of the Minnesota Secretary of State is a lot number with a XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is the address on my Minnesota State Driver 's License. My bank, doctor, school, and every company I have an account with uses my XXXX XXXX XXXX address as my legal address. I called the XXXX number and was connected with an Apple Card Credit Card specialist at Goldman Sachs . I explained my issue with trying to apply for the Apple Card online and was told that Goldman Sachs only accepts physical addresses as an address for the application. I explained that I was a XXXX XXXX XXXX Participant and all that entails, and I was essentially told that did not matter, Goldman Sachs only accepts physical addresses on applications. I told the credit specialist that I wanted to file a complaint because this seemed discriminatory. She had me talk to her supervisor, who told me the same thing, that Goldman Sachs only accepts physical addresses on applications. When I asked to file a complaint, she said she needed to look up my information first. I gave her the last four of my SS, my DOB, and name. She told me she could not find me anywhere in their system, and thus could not file a complaint on my behalf. She told me I could call Apple and file a complaint with them instead. After hanging up with Goldman Sachs, I called XXXX and spoke with a representative and told her what happened. She filed a complaint with Apple for my situation, but could not resolve the issue since Goldman Sachs will not accept my legal address.

Company: SANTANDER HOLDINGS USA, INC.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
I purchased my truck XX/XX/XXXX. My monthly payment is {$890.00}. I made 2 payments totalling {$900.00} well before my due date of XX/XX/XXXX. The total interest taken out of these 2 payments was around {$330.00}. I asked to change my due date to the XXXX, so my mortgage and car payment would come out of separates paychecks. I made 3 payments XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, once again totalling {$900.00} and again before my payment was due. They applied the whole monthly payment of almost {$900.00} to interest. How is that even possible when the first month, the principal was higher. I called 3 times now about this and there is still no update from " accounting '' which I have been told is supposed to review it. Each time the representative told me it's a simple interest loan and that's how it works.

Company: UPGRADE, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I was approved for a loan in XXXX of XXXX. The term was two years. My final payment was due XX/XX/XXXX. I made several attempts to make the final payment via their website and I received an error message. Afraid that resubmitting my payment would cause double the amount to be withdrawn from my checking account I logged off. I waited a few days to see if the payment would go through. I logged on again XX/XX/XXXX and not only did I get the same error message but now I see there's a late fee! I called their customer service line and was left on hold for 6 minutes the first time, 10 minutes the second time and I waited 10.5 minutes the third time when one of their agents suddenly disconnected the call. I believe this is Upgrade 's attempt to charge me additional fees and to negatively impact my credit.
