Issue: Managing an account — Funds not handled or disbursed as instructed
Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, 2022, I called Goldman Sachs to initiate a {$30000.00} wire to an escrow account as part of a home purchase. The representative said he was unable to send a wire-in-progress or confirmation email. Instead, he shared an internal escrow wire reference number. 

Because it was late in the day, I understood the wire would likely be processed the next day. Instead, XXXX XXXX came and went without the escrow being processed. The funds remained in my account. 

On XXXX XXXX, I called customer service and was told it was in progress. Unfortunately, they did not tell me if I needed to verify any details or if there was anything I could do. They simply told me that some wires take one to three business days, and because I started the wire in the late afternoon on XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX was technically only the second business day. 

My escrow XXXX told me Goldman Sachs called her on XXXX XXXX to confirm the wire transfer details. She promptly gave the instructions that morning. Still, the wire was not sent, and the funds remained in my account. 

On XXXX XXXX, I called Goldman Sachs and asked if the funds would be sent, as it was the third business day. The representative told me only that the wire was in progress. However, she let me know that it was the third business day since I initiated the wire, and wires typically take one to three business days.

At the end of the day, the funds remained in my account. The wire had not been sent or processed, even after three business days.

I asked for each representative to send me an email so that I could prove to the XXXX  XXXX and the house seller 's realtor that the wire was in progress. None of them could provide me with the email or anything in writing about the status of the wire. 

I am now at risk of losing my house purchase because I am in breach in contract. My earnest money has not reached the escrow account. I have waited on hold for XXXX hours every day for the last four days. This is unacceptable. 

The Goldman Sachs XXXX wire reference number is # XXXX.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I had a payment schedule with Citibank for my general purpose credit card scheduled for an amount of {$300.00} on XXXX and received a confirmation email on XXXX stating this is the amount that would be drawn. Citibank drew the full statement balance for {$5700.00} from my account on XXXX without authorization. Citibank posted this as a payment to my statement even though the financial institution who holds my checking account declined the transaction as it would have significantly overdrawn my account. They have charged me a returned check fee of {$30.00} and have sense removed access from the card. I contacted Citibank on XXXX through their online chat and the agent was not helpful and said I can only resolve the issue by calling the bank myself. I then called the bank to address with them their error that was made and asked them if it is legal for them to draw an amount greater than what was authorized and confirmed through email by them ; to which no agent would answer. I demanded they supply to me a copy of the terms of agreement of my auto pay to review. After being transferred multiple times and being placed on hold multiple times as well. I finally ended with an agent named XXXX XXXX employee # XXXX ) who told me he was unable to provide me with the terms and conditions of this agreement. I bluntly asked him if a financial service provider is legally required to provide the terms and conditions of a contract to the consumer upon request and he would not answer the question. I told him that we both know the answer to the question is undoubtably yes and it is clearly stated on the CFPB website that this is a requirement. Ultimately I spent over an hour on the phone with Citibank, who has given me no answer to why they charged a significantly greater amount than what was unauthorized and Citibank has refused to provide me with a copy of the terms and agreements I accepted when enrolling in their autopayment program.
