Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against Goldman Sachs for unjustly denying my recent claim for fraudulent charges on my credit card account ending in XXXX. Despite providing substantial evidence of the fraudulent transactions to both the bank and the XXXX Police Department, Goldman Sachs denied my claim, citing that the card was used with the chip and/or PIN entered, and thus implying that I was responsible for the charges. 
The fraudulent transactions occurred on XX/XX/2023, and I reported them to the XXXX Police Department as part of a financial fraud investigation ( Case No : XXXX ). The total amount of the unauthorized charges on this account is {$1700.00}. A detailed list of these transactions has already been submitted to the XXXX Police Department for investigation. 

According to the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ), I am protected from liability for unauthorized charges on my credit card account. The FCBA limits my liability to {$50.00} for unauthorized charges, and many credit card issuers, including Goldman Sachs, have a zero-liability policy for fraudulent charges. Despite this legal protection, Goldman Sachs denied my claim and decided to remove the temporary credits applied to my account. 

I kindly request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to intervene in this matter and investigate the unjust denial of my claim by Goldman Sachs. I believe that the bank 's decision to hold me responsible for the fraudulent charges, despite the evidence provided, is in violation of the FCBA and the zero-liability policy.

Please find the attached documents for your reference. I am willing to provide any additional information or evidence required to support my complaint. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
I submitted my reinvestigation request to all 3 credit bureaus on numerous occasions with proper identification required and have also requested that they block fraudulent inaccurate, erroneous, or misleading information in my credit files. I also provided my FTC report for the fraudulent accounts reporting on my credit profile and the only correspondence I receive is that I did not provide proper documents This is a stalling method that these bureaus continue to use in order not to process my request for a re-investigation. My rights are being violated at this point and I feel that they are i in compliance with the FCRA. This type of behavior needs to cease immediately and do what is right for the consumer.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is a federal law that regulates how consumer credit information is collected, reported, and used. While the FCRA does not specifically address inaccurate charge-offs, it provides certain protections and procedures that can be relevant when disputing inaccurate information, including charge-offs, on your credit report. Here are some key provisions of the FCRA that may apply : 1. Accuracy of Information ( Section 607 ) : Credit reporting agencies ( CRAs ) are required to maintain reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. If you believe that the charge-off information reported on your credit file is inaccurate, you have the right to dispute it with the CRAs.

2. Investigation of Disputed Information ( Section 611 ) : When you dispute inaccurate information on your credit report, the CRAs must conduct a reasonable investigation into the matter. They are required to contact the creditor that provided the information and request verification or correction. The investigation should be completed within 30 days, although there are exceptions for certain circumstances. 
3. Reinvestigation of Disputed Information ( Section 611 ) : If you are dissatisfied with the outcome of the initial investigation or if the inaccurate charge-off information reappears on your credit report, you have the right to request a reinvestigation. The CRAs must conduct another reasonable investigation and provide you with a written response within 30 days.

4. Obligation to Correct or Delete Inaccurate Information ( Section 611 ) : If the CRAs find that the reported charge-off information is inaccurate or can not be verified, they must promptly correct or delete it from your credit report. They are also required to provide you with a free copy of your credit report reflecting the changes. 

It's important to note that while the FCRA outlines these rights and procedures, it does not guarantee that inaccurate charge-offs will be removed from your credit report. The outcome of a dispute depends on the results of the investigation and the accuracy of the information reported by the creditor. It may be helpful to gather supporting documentation and evidence to strengthen your case when disputing inaccurate charge-off information.

If you encounter challenges in resolving the issue through the credit reporting agencies, you may consider consulting with a consumer law attorney or contacting the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) for further guidance and assistance in asserting your rights under the FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing in reference to the following three accounts that I had at the TD Bank branch in XXXX, New Jersey. The total value of all accounts exceed {$25000.00}. 
I. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Savings account number XXXX In XX/XX/2023, I called the XXXX office and spoke with XXXX. I told XXXX I would like to close the accounts. She suggested that I visit the branch. I told XXXX that I do not reside near any TD Bank branches. She then suggested that I sent a notarized letter requesting the accounts be closed. I prepared the letter and mailed it to the XXXX branch on Tuesday XX/XX/2023. On Friday XX/XX/2023, I received a call from XXXX indicating she received the letter and closed the accounts. She indicated she prepared a check and provided me with the following XXXX tracking number : XXXX. 

Unfortunately, the XXXX package did not arrive during the next several days. I input the tracking number into the XXXX Web site on the Internet and I received a response indicating the label was generated on XX/XX/XXXX but the package did not enter the mail stream. On Friday XX/XX/2023, I called XXXX and told her I did not receive the package. I also told her it was not placed in the mail stream. XXXX repeatedly said the package was mailed and told me to file a complaint with XXXX. Needless to say, I can not file a complaint if the package was never placed into the mail stream as indicated by the tracking information. 

Unfortunately, the package still has not arrived and my savings accounts with a total of over {$25000.00} is depleted. For you convenience, I have attached a screen shot of the XXXX tracking information. Your assistance in enabling me to promptly obtain the proceeds from my accounts is needed and will be greatly appreciated.
