Issue: Opening an account — Didn't receive terms that were advertised
Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I opened a XXXX XXXX XXXX Account using a unique link provided to me by another customer. Use of this link was meant to provide me & that other customer with an increased interest rate. 3.5 days after opening the account, I called XXXX complaining the rate had not been applied. Customer service refused to take any action because I was outside of a XXXX hour window. They did not provide me with the policy that stated I had a XXXX hour window to complain. I elevated to a CFPB complaint. After much back and forth, including a confidential call with the person who sent me the referral link, I eventually received a call from XXXX IT saying that I did not use the link to open my account. When I reiterated that I had, and that I had clicked on the terms and conditions during the process, she said that perhaps clicking on the terms and conditions had taken me out of the linked portal. 

XXXX then resolved my CFPB complaint with the response that I did not open my account using the unique link. I did follow the unique link to open my account. If features of the XXXX website cause customers to be taken out of the unique portal, this is an issue that XXXX should resolve. 

I followed the unique link sent by my friend, but there was nothing in the XXXX account to indicate when I was " in '' or " out '' of the portal, and I had no way of knowing that XXXX would refuse to apply the advertised rate to my account. 

The IT rep I spoke with additionally advised me that many people face similar issues, and that her personal advice is that everyone call customer service immediately after opening their account to avoid missing out on the advertised interest rate. This advice of course could not help me, since I had already been denied the rate. There is nothing on the account opening page advising consumers to call customer service to ensure that they receive the advertised rate.

Complaint narrative:
verbiage 75 % XXXX The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
We opened a CD with Citizens that matured in XX/XX/year> and we never received communication that it was maturing. Citizens has renewed the CD for five more years, and will not let us access our funds without a hefty removal fee. We would like our funds transferred back to our original account at XXXX XXXX XXXX, and Citizens is not permitting this. 

Not everyone is connected to email 24x7, and we never received the original email that our CD was due. Even more importantly though, we never received a phone call. I think for people who are not on technology all the time, a phone call would be a much better communication tool than email. It is almost as if Citizens is being very sneaky and trying to keep customer money as long as possible and pay as low an interest rate as possible. 

I am hoping you can help get our money out of this bank without a fee.

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported in XXXX to be removed. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

XXXX XXXX never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries. These are the following accounts need to be removed :
