Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
I have had an Apple Card for 3 years and have always paid my balance in full every month and have had to any interest. In XX/XX/2022 I was looking at my transaction page and saw where this merchant which I knew had charged my card multiple times on that day I was checking it. I am talking a lot of money. I right then got in touch with the merchant and notified Apple Card. I have to be honest I am terrible at checking my monthly statements but I had noticed that XXXX and XXXX my bill was high but just thought I needed to slow down on spending. I checked the previous 2 months and there were numerous charges from that same merchant. I then turned them in also. I am talking over 70 transactions and thousands of dollars. It was a 4 month ordeal and they were all ruled in my favor. Apple Card has not credited my account with all the charges to this day. I have all the dispute transactions in my favor. I did have to dispute most of them a second time. On Monday morning XXXX XXXX, I got an email telling me my account had been closed for not following their agreement. I called them and they said read your email. I said why would you have done that. I pay my bill every month. Oh and they had just given me a XXXX line of credit raise.My credit line was {$37000.00} after the increase. There is still a XXXX balance but I know if they would had posted all the charges that I won in my favor they would owe me. I asked them if all the disputes were complete and they told me no and I said how can to close my account and I know you have not credited my account with some that I won. I have figured there is about {$10000.00} worth that had not been credited to my account. I have all the resolved emails, snapshots of my account and the ones they have not credited me. When I asked how many disputes were still open, and they said 12 and I said I dont know how you can close my account. I said well how do I know my balance will be the same and she said well there is only 3 left and its figured into your balance. That was a lie. They were trying to get me to pay off the balance on Monday and I almost did, but thought something is not right. I have all the chat messages also. I dont want their charge card anymore that dispute fiasco was a nightmare for 4 months. But I do want what is coming to me, I had payed for XXXX and XXXX and didnt catch it until XXXX, but at least it was at the beginning of the month. I have a credit score of XXXX and I dont want it to be destroyed from this. I did nothing wrong but dispute fraudulent charges!!!

Complaint narrative:
Dear MIDLAND CREDIT MANAGEMENT  Account # XXXX ; XXXX XXXX ; I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023 I deposited a State Refund check in the amount of XXXX via a Capital One ATM. The next day I checked the website to see when it would be available. According to the website, it would not be available until XX/XX/2023 at the earliest. I contacted Capital One on XX/XX/2023 and was told that I needed to call back when the FTB was open and the check could be verified. On XX/XX/2023 I called back and spoke to three different individuals. The final person indicated that he was at the end of the line and stated that no he would not do anything to speed up the posting. He also indicated that I can expect any check I deposit to take at least 5 days to post. I indicated that this was a government check and that I did not understand why at least some of the funds were not made available to me. He did not answer that question but went back to his original answer that the check would not post until XX/XX/2023 at the earliest. I have only deposited 2 checks into this account and both have taken in excess of 4 days to post. The original bank transfer that I made to this account of {$1100.00} from my XXXX XXXX account took 13 days to post and was split into two transactions. One transaction for {$100.00} posted on XXXX and the remaining amount of {$1000.00} posted the next day.
