Hello, I have a son with disabilities, and often he does things impulsively. On January 4th he accessed my phone and purchased three apps from Apple Store. He did not intend to buy but said he couldnt control himself. Upon finding this out, I immediately canceled all subscriptions. I contacted Apple immediately, but they told me I had to wait to have this reversed. Days later, they told me there was nothing they could do. I don't use these apps due to the immediate cancellation, and my money was taken, so money was wasted on my end. I would like for you to consider refunding these. It was a mistake and due to issues that my son faces. Moving forward, I will find a way not to have this happen, but in this case, I would like a refund. Thank you!

This complaint is about my Apple Card account. In the last week of December, I earned Apple Daily Cash on 2 transactions but Apple Card did not make it available for me to use, either towards my balance or as a transfer to an external account.

Currently the unused balance is $4.77. Apple Card has no customer service number and its help text/FAQs were not able to resolve the issue.Business Response

Hello, Goldman Sachs allows Apple to charge my credit card without providing any product or service, and wont even provide a receipt. The credit card is an Apple Credit Card issued by Goldman Sachs.As the card issuer, Goldman Sachs provides no way for me to dispute these fraudulent charges with them directly. Instead they force me in loops with Apple Tech Support who wastes hours and cannot solve issue.I am getting billed for nothing - I am receiving no product, no service, not even a receipt for those charges, and there is no way to dispute them.After hours of trying, I find no way to solve this issue with Apple or Goldman Sachs, and am forced to file complaint with the BBB. PLEASE HELP ME.Details:- From 10/2022 - 1/2023 (4 months), I have been billed for 7 months of AppleCare+ for a device that I dont even own.- $74.62 is the total amount.- Apple will not provide me with any receipt, billing agreement, or product detail for these charges.- Goldman Sachs, as the card issuer, does not provide ANYWAY for me to dispute these, except to go through Apple, who wont help.- this is a case where the Merchant and the Credit Card Issuer are working together, without any oversight, to make baseless fraudulent charges to their customers.- since Apple will not provide receipt or detail for those charges, all the support I can provide are the bills I am seeing on my credit card.Business Response

We paid off a loan $3278.27we had with Green Sky with a check in the mail. They told me they did not get the check. So we paid off the loan directly giving them our account information over the phone and were told not to cash the check but they did anyway. We had put a stop on that check on that day we made the payment but unfortunately our bank did not stop the check and let it go through. We have contacted Green Sky several times and they told us we would get our refund expedited but it is over a week since they told us we would get our money back and they still have not processed it . They tell us everyday that it will be processed but nothing has been done about it. They still have our money and are making any attempt to reimburse us for the money they took from us. We have bills to pay and are in great debt because we need our money! Please help us get our money back fro Green Sky!Business Response

I used Greensky to finance the purchase of a spa purchased from ******* in ****** ** in August of 2022. The salesman assured me the loan was a 12 month interest free loan, and the papers I saw attested to this fact. Today in December of 2022 I paid off the loan, only to notice that Greensky was charging me $86 per month of interest on the purchase. I cannot reach Greensky, and ****** is claiming I made the wrong "selection" of the loan, even though they filed the loan application for me. This is incredibly deceptive and bait and switch. I am owed $425 in financing charges.Business Response

We got a loan form GreenSky in June 2022. We always made our payments on time through the same bank account every month. In December we submitted 3 separate payments for a larger amount than the monthly payment. Each time the payment was reversed or one number wrong on the checking account. They charged us a late fee with high interest for being late. Nothing changed with our payments but the amount we were paying. These people dont want you to pay off the loan. They want to keep charging you interest. True SCAMMERSBusiness Response
Date: 12/27/2022
GreenSky was unable to speak directly with the customer as she previously requested not to be contacted. The customers account was reviewed and it does appear that the payments are being rejected due to the account not being located, this usually happens when the incorrect account or routing number is entered at the time of payment. The customer is advised to ensure that the correct information is entered before submitting the payment. It is GreenSkys mission to provide exceptional service and we will continue to improve our process.
