Consumer complaint received 2025-08-05 00:00:00
Product: Checking or savings account — CD (Certificate of Deposit)
Issue: Managing an account — Funds not handled or disbursed as instructed
Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
On Saturday XX/XX/year>, I attempted to close my CD ( {$4900.00} ) with Marcus by Goldman Sacs. I added my XXXX XXXX checking account on Marcus via the plaid platform. On Monday they attempted to call me to confirm I made the transaction. I called them back at XXXX on Tuesday to confirm I made the transaction. They then went on to state they needed to call XXXX XXXX to confirm that its my account. I expressed my disappointment and conveyed that to a supervisor. I called back later when I had more time to once again go over the procedure. They informed me they would call XXXX XXXX from their phone and I would have to do the verification myself. 

I informed them that this made me uncomfortable as I have no way to verify the number they called or even if a XXXX XXXX employee is on the other end of the call. They told me that this was the only way they could proceed to give me my money. 

I told them I would not do it as this seems like a way that fraud occurs. 

XXXX asking that my money be released into my XXXX XXXX checking account. Asking someone to give personal information over the phone to a number they didnt dial, or a company they can not verify is on the other end is wrong.
