Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I have an Apple credit card. I pay the balance off each month. I paid my XXXX statement balance in full on XX/XX/XXXX ; however it wasnt due until XX/XX/XXXX. I have not yet received a statement for my XXXX balance which will be due by XX/XX/XXXX. Since I pay my full balance off each month, I am not being charged interest and will not until after XX/XX/XXXX. 

Separately, I have purchased some products at the Apple XXXX which gives me 0 % interest for period of time. I have an XXXX XXXX XXXX with only XXXX payments left out of XXXX. I wish to pay it off so that I can use it to trade it in in a promotion with XXXX that is only running during XXXX XXXX I have a separate retail installment sales contacting Goldman Sachs for the payment of this phone. 


Goldman Sachs will not allow me to pay only the balance of my phone without paying the entire balance on my credit card which is a separate revolving account. The balance that is not yet due or charged interest for another 34 days. This is a XXXX violation in that it is unfair when these are XXXX separate agreements. 

I understand that they are trying to protect consumers that maXXXX be being charged interest on a balance to not pay off a balance that is not being charged interest but in this case they are costing me the ability to get a free XXXX XXXX pro from XXXX. This is not fair and this policy needs to be reviewed and changed for situations like mine where I do not have a balance being charged interest and I should have another 34 days to pay the outstanding balance on the credit card when it is not yet due and in fact a statement has not even been given with that balance. Additionally I should be able to pay off the separate balance of the XXXX without having to pay another account balance. 

Also, this is a monopoly issue because I would be allow to trade my phone into Apple but not to XXXX.
