State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I regret to inform you that I can not accept your decision to dismiss my identity theft claim by attributing it to an error or a misrepresentation of material fact. It raises serious concerns as to how and why you possess the authority to determine what constitutes a material fact. It's worth noting that your role does not grant you the powers of a judge or jury, nor any inherent right to make such determinations.

According to the guidelines set forth by the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), when an FTC identity theft report has been filed with a law enforcement agency ( which the FTC itself is ), the protocol is to adhere to the law and investigate accordingly. 

XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX I am willing to grant you one final opportunity to process my request concerning my identity theft. Failure to do so will compel me to seek legal recourse through the judicial system. In such a scenario, you will be held accountable for the damage caused to my reputation, credit, and the emotional distress I have endured throughout this ordeal. It is highly likely that what constitutes a material fact will become abundantly clear during legal proceedings, and you may be required to compensate me for your negligence.

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023 I purchased clothes from a merchant named XXXX for the amount of XXXX order XXXX XXXX Tracking from XXXX : I have previous orders with the merchant and had no problems with them but in this case I never recieved my order. I attempted to reach out to the customer support several times before I involved my bank ( Apple Card/ Goldman Sachs ) Dispute case : XXXX I never once recieved a reply from the merchant about my items not delivering. I also attempted to reach out to dhl to open a missing package but was unable to as its the merchants responsibility. I was able to get confirmation of the signature that clearly wasnt mine. All this was provided to Goldman Sachs/ Apple Card and I was surprised to see that the dispute was not ruled in my favor as I clearly was being ignored from the merchant who decided to challenge my dispute as I had notified them because I thought it was the responsible thing to do and act in good faith. I am providing the evidence that I provided them with which proves how this was unjustly ruled in favor of the merchant despite me paying for something and never receiving it. I provided my signature so they can compare with the one that was provided as well as a sworn statement confirming I never received my items.
