The address they turned services on was a mistake. A call was made within just a few days to turn the services off. Told rep that understood would be billed for the few days and we received a bill of an amount reflecting a few days of service. Then continued to receive bills thereafter.

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have closed a credit card account ( Apple Credit Card by Goldman Sachs Bank USA ) in XX/XX/XXXX after paying off all the remaining balance before the statement due date. 
I never had any late payment with the account since opening in XX/XX/XXXX. I thought I closed the account for good without any future issues. 
However, in XX/XX/XXXX Apple reported to all credit rating agencies that I was late over 30 days on " trailing interest charge '' of {$63.00} which I did not see on the last statement but I promptly paid anyway in hope Apple would delete the late payment record. 
As a result, my XXXX score went down by XXXX point from XXXX along with other credit agency scores. This Apple late payment is the only negative spot on my otherwise spotless credit report on all my over 10 accounts in the last 20 years. 
I've made all the payments for the Apple Credit card in accordance with the monthly statement before closing it. I am now in extreme difficulty getting a credit or any other critical loan for my living.
