Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX merchant named XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, charged an unauthorized transaction to my Apple Goldman Sachs credit card for the amount of {$490.00}. The company was hired to move my furniture on XXXXXXXX XXXX. During the move, it began to rain and the movers refused to move my couch in the rain because they claimed they could be injured. They told me they would be returning the following day after the weather improved to move my couch. They refused to release my couch and took it back in their moving truck, saying that they needed to hold onto it until the job was completed. On XXXX XXXX, the movers arrived at XXXX XXXX  to move my couch inside my home. They asked me to sign their mobile device to close the moving contract, but they did not disclose that they would be charging me a second time. When I saw the second transaction on my credit card later That same day, I called the company and could not reach anyone. I continued to call and leave messages to dispute the charge directly with the merchant but did not receive any response. I opened a dispute for the charge with my credit card company, Goldman Sachs. On XX/XX/, Goldman Sachs informed me that they decided to side with the merchant on the dispute. They did not ask for additional evidence on my part before making their decision to credit the merchant for a transaction that was charged without my permission. If you see the attached contract I signed with XXXX  and XXXX XXXX, you will see that a couch was included in the inventory to be moved. I should not have been charged a second time or additional charges since the couch was already included in my contract.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX contacted Transunion today at around XXXX PST. He was repeatedly hung up on, disconnected, provided false and inappropriate guidance from numerous representatives as XXXX was advising of a case number concerning fraud on his Transunion profile exclusively. XXXX had spend numerous amounts of his time explaining simple things like email address information, police report numbers and was not allowed to provide all the information XXXX was trying to provide to Transunion. XXXX is a victim of consumer fraud and Transunion is not complying with the removal of inappropriate remarks on his credit profile. XXXX in one instance was providing the police report number to a Transunion worker, and the worke disconnected the call after reading back the police report number numerous times. Providing an email address to another worker became very difficult as well, as the worker began reading back worded that are not even English. 

This is serious. It should not be this difficult to get fraudulent remarks removed from a credit report. In fact XXXX feels that they are working to not remove the remarks with the so backwards and ignorant mannerisms and behaviors. Transunion should not be asserting false and misleading information and then working to keep it on he report when there is a police investigation into the conduct of the merchant not exclusive to just XXXX. 

XXXX was trying to provide the following information and is unsure if Transunion properly recorded it. 

Case Number : XXXX Station : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX investigations Phone Number : XXXX Investigating Officer : XXXX ( Badge XXXX )

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
On or about XX/XX/2022, Barclays Bank Delaware ( hereafter Barclays ) notified me that it had terminated my AAdvantage Aviator World Elite Business Mastercard account ending in XXXX ( the " Account '' ). Barclays did not provide me ( 1 ) 30 days ' written notice of its intent to terminate the Account or ( 2 ) a statement of specific reasons for that action, both of which are required under federal law. Barclays thereafter failed and refused to transfer to my XXXX XXXX AAdvantage account both the Award miles ( miles ) and the Loyalty Points ( points ) I had earned. 

Barclays actions violate the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( 15 U.S.C. section 1691 ( d ) ), Regulation B ( 12 C.F.R. section 1002.9 ( a ) ), and constitute Unfair Competition ( Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act ( CUTPA ) ), conversion and breach of contract/breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. 

When Barclays closed the aforementioned credit card account, I had previously earned two ( 2 ) miles and one ( 1 ) point for each dollar spent. I would have earned an additional XXXX miles and XXXX points based on my spending in the billing period with a XX/XX/2022 statement closing date. I plainly have a right to those miles and points. Barclays nonetheless failed to transfer those miles and points to my XXXX XXXX account as it had done for the prior nine ( 9 ) months. Instead, it purported to forfeit those miles and points based on some internal policy which it had not provided to me. By confiscating my miles and points and preventing me from earning additional miles and points, Barclays improperly interfered with my right to my miles and points. Since those miles and points have substantial value to me they served as the basis for Barclays inducing me to obtain and use its credit card I was damaged as a result of Barclays conduct. Barclays justification for the forfeiture is immaterial under the law. Having deprived me of my miles and points, Barclays motive is not relevant. Barclays is strictly liable for conversion.
