I combined cards with my spouse under a promotion where we were supposed to receive $100.00 in Apple Cash as a restul of the transaction. Since combining account, the funds were not received as promised. I've engaged with Assocaites several times who promissed that a case would be opened and that the $100.00 would be credited within 90 days. Several cases have come and gone and yet no credit has been received. The last complaint I filed with them resulted in a phone call from an Assocaite who promised that we would receive the $100.00 apple cash and a $100.00 goodwill statement credit for the troubles, which also hasn't happened.Business Response

This pertains to Apple Credit card account and made full payment on 9/27/22 in the amount of $5160.67. The due date is the last day of each month. I called and spoke with Goldman Sach rep to confirm they received payment in full, which he confirmed. He indicated that this full payment includes all charges and fees, so there should be no additional charges after this. On 9/30/22, the bank charged my account for $90.08. I called 3 times and sent 4 text messages inquiring about this charge. I was told this was interest rate for Sept, however, it was in error because I paid my account in full before the due date. Their system didn't release/clear my payment until 10/5/22, to no fault of my own. I was told the balance will be adjusted and rep filed a claim/dispute on my behalf. 19 days later, the issue is not resolved, nor willing to assist me. I'm filing a complain against the company because I'm getting run-around and refusing to resolve the issue.Business Response

Goldman Sachs Bank USA received the above-referenced complaint related to the Apple Card via the Better Business Bureau (BBB) Complaint Portal on October 19, 2022. We appreciate the opportunity to address the issues raised by *********************************** (the Customer) related to interest charges on the Apple ************************ conducted a review related to payments and confirmed no bank error occurred. On August 27, 2022, the Customer made a payment in the amount of $175.00. This left an outstanding balance of $5,220.54 unpaid in August. Since the monthly balance was not paid in full, the account was charged interest in the amount of $104.29 on August 31, 2022. The monthly balance was paid in full on September 20, 2022 and September 27, 2022, when the Customer made payments in the amounts of $175.00 and $5,160.67. Trailing interest in the amount of $90.08 was charged on September 30, 2022.
To avoid interest charges, Customers are required to pay the monthly balance in full as of the end of the previous month by the due date every month. If the monthly balance is not paid in full on or before the due date, Customers are charged interest on the monthly balance for the days until the Customer fully pays it off. This is also known as trailing interest. Additional details regarding how the Bank calculates interest can be found in the Apple Card Customer Agreement.
During our investigation, the Bank identified an inadvertent communication error occurred on October 06, 2022. As a result of the miscommunication, the Customer was incorrectly advised that interest was assessed in error. The Bank credited the interest assessed on the September 2022 statement in the amount $90.08 on October 31, 2022. The Bank regrets the frustrations the Customer has experienced.

I have a my Cadillac rewards Mastercard from ****** by Goldman Sachs and it's been a nightmare using this credit card but I don't want to close it yet cause it will effect my credit score tremendously. But if I would have known how shady they are I would have never gotten it in the first place. I want to make it clear I've never been late nor do I owe them anymore so I'm not making this dispute for that.I disputed a $214 dollar purchase for an item that I received that doesn't fit the description of what I bought. To the point of I am unable to use the product. 3 months later the bank emailed me saying they need additional information and they want a letter for a 3rd party stating the product is defective and I need to send them a whole bunch of other stuff in 2 weeks ! When they took 3 months to tell me this. I tried to use my credit card after this purchase for an emergency and it was declined bc I made this dispute. When I made this dispute if I would have known that they were going to take this long to just ask me for more docs, then ask me for a letter from a qualified 3rd party and deni my emergency purchase I probably would have eaten the cost. They are making it impossible to make a dispute on a legit fraudulent purchase. Horrible experience , wasted so much of my time , and now I'm stuck with them for a while cause it will effect my credit if I close. I wish our government had laws to protect us from greedy banks like Goldman Sachs.Business Response

On Sept. 22 I purchased an iPad thru the Apple store using my Apple Card because of its payment plan. It is supposed to be roughly $67/mo. Instead they took the ENTIRE purchase amount of $804!!! They said it would as a pending and fall off after a few days. Then they said it would fall off after 10 days. Here we are almost three weeks later and they are holding HUNDREDS of dollars hostage when its only $67! What the **** is the point of a payment plan if you take the entire amount at once?! I want my available credit restored immediately or I escalate this issue. You cannot bait and switch saying its a payment plan and then take the full amount. I will NEVER EVER buy from them again. Probably why their Apple Pay plan got derailed and delayedthey dont understand the basics. The proof is attached. Resolution is a refund of my $804 minus the pending $55 they took Sept. 22. Then I owe $67 this month, but do I really since they took the whole $804 already? Things that make you go hmmmBusiness Response

On 9/18/22, I was issued a refund of $80.58 from Apple for a refunded purchase on an 'Apple Card Monthly Installment' for my iPhone 13 with AppleCare+. At the time of the refund, this installment loan was already paid in full. Instead of receiving the full refund, I received only $5.27, the taxes for the refunded amount. I am still missing $75.31. When I contacted support about this issue, they advised it will show up on the September statement as a credit towards the installment balance, which it did, however, the $75.31 is not being reflected in the remaining installment balance. To put it differently, though the -$75.31 shows as a line item on the September statement in the 'Apple Card Monthly Installments' section, the remaining installment balance figure of $1488.61 does not reflect the -$75.31. I cannot get the numbers to add up properly to reflect the $75.31 refund in the balance. It's as if the balance is not including the refund.I am requesting an explanation as to my installment balance remaining, as well as where my $75.31 refund is, along with documentation supporting the explanation. Thank you.Business Response

Goldman Sachs Bank *** (the Bank) received the above-referenced complaint related to the Apple Card via the Better Business Bureau (BBB)Complaint Portal on October 05, 2022. We appreciate the opportunity to address the concerns raised by ************************* (the Customer) related to a return credit on their Apple Card.
******** conducted a review of the account balances, payments, and return credits and confirmed no error occurred. Per the Apple Card Agreement all payments in excess of the minimum payment due are applied to the balance with the highest APR first. Payments over the minimum are applied to the **** balance only when the revolving balance reaches $0.00 since the **** balance is not subject to an APR.
On September 18, 2022, the merchant Apple posted two return credits in the amounts $5.27 and $75.31. These credits were applied according to the Merchants processing. The Customers revolving balance as of September 18, 2022 was $223.35. The credit in the amount $5.27 was applied directly to the Customers revolving balance and a Daily Cash Adjustment in the amount $2.42 was billed. The credit in the amount $75.31 was applied toward the Apple Card Monthly Installment balance associated with the original Apple Card Monthly Installment plan that originated on September 22, 2021. ******** confirmed this Apple Card Monthly Installment plan was closed as of February 02, 2022. As a result, the return credit in the amount $75.31 was applied toward the revolving balance. The Customers updated revolving balance as of September 19, 2022 was $145.19.
During the investigation, the Bank confirmed the Customer made an overpayment to the Apple Card account revolving balance in the amount of $28.19 on September 22, 2022. The revolving balance as of September 22, 2022 was paid to $0.00, and the overpayment credit balance in the amount $28.19 was applied toward the Apple Card Monthly Installment balance, starting with the oldest plan first.
The below is a running balance of the activity associated to the account reflecting the balances as of Sept 30, 2022.
**** balance change from $1,111.05 to $1,488.61 is a result of **** payments, **** purchase, and additional payment/revolving **************.
$1,111.05 - $123.25 + $529.00 - $28.19 = $1,488.61
Revolving balance change from $54.30 to $25.15 is a result of **** payments due, total payments made, total new charges credits and returns, the **** credit applied to revolving balance, and the 9/22 EOD credit balance moved and applied to **** balance.
$54.30 + $123.25 - $871.81 + $766.53 - $75.31 + $28.19 = $25.15
******** conducted a review of the Customers Apple Card Monthly Installment balance and confirmed no error occurred. The Apple Card Monthly Installment balance as of August 31, 2022 was $1,111.05. The Customer posted payments on September 02, 2022 that reduced the Apple Card Monthly Installment balance by $123.25.

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:I have again reviewed in detail the transactions listed on both PDF statements and in the 'Wallet' app. Neither indicate a credit of $75.31 was issued to my revolving balance. To clarify, in case my original message was perceived the wrong way: I am not alleging malfeasance/misinformation on the part of any one person or group of people at Goldman Sachs/Apple, rather, I believe that an error has occurred in the bank's system which requires a manual resolution. Thank you.
In order for the BBB to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.
Sincerely,

Goldman Sachs Bank *** (the Bank) received the above-referenced complaint related to the Apple Card via the Better Business Bureau (BBB) Complaint Portal on October 31, 2022. We appreciate the opportunity to address the concerns raised by ************************* (the Customer) related to a return credit on their Apple Card.
As provided in the Banks response to the Customers prior complaint, the Bank conducted a review of the account balances, payments, and return credits and confirmed no error occurred. Per the Apple Card Agreement all payments in excess of the minimum payment due are applied to the balance with the highest APR first. Payments over the minimum are applied to the **** balance only when the revolving balance reaches $0.00 since the **** balance is not subject to an APR.
On September 18, 2022, the merchant Apple posted two return credits in the amounts $5.27 and $75.31. These credits were applied according to the Merchants processing. The Customers revolving balance as of September 18, 2022 was $223.35. The credit in the amount $5.27 was applied directly to the Customers revolving balance and a Daily Cash Adjustment in the amount $2.42 was billed.The credit in the amount $75.31 was applied toward the Apple Card Monthly Installment balance associated with the original Apple Card Monthly Installment plan that originated on September 22, 2021. ******** confirmed this Apple Card Monthly Installment plan was closed as of February 02, 2022. As a result,the return credit in the amount $75.31 was applied toward the revolving balance. The customer will not see this in the wallet, however we have outlined how this reduced the revolving balance. The Customers updated revolving balance as of September 19, 2022 was $145.19.
During the investigation, the Bank confirmed the Customer made an overpayment to the Apple Card account revolving balance in the amount of $28.19 on September 22, 2022. The revolving balance as of September 22, 2022 was paid to $0.00, and the overpayment credit balance in the amount $28.19 was applied toward the Apple Card Monthly Installment balance, starting with the oldest plan first.
The below is a running balance of the activity associated to the account reflecting the balances as of Sept 30, 2022.
**** balance change from $1,111.05 to $1,488.61 is a result of **** payments,**** purchase, and additional payment/revolving **************.
$1,111.05 - $123.25 + $529.00 - $28.19 = $1,488.61
Revolving balance change from $54.30 to $25.15 is a result of **** payments due, total payments made, total new charges credits and returns, the **** credit applied to revolving balance, and the 9/22 EOD credit balance moved and applied to **** balance.
$54.30 + $123.25 - $871.81 + $766.53 - $75.31 + $28.19 = $25.15
