      I applied for financing through GreenSky on 9/1/2022 for a new **** system. I received approval, activated the account, and registered on the portal (9/1/2022). I notified my merchant & scheduled the **** install. On 9/26/22 I set up Auto Pay on the account portal in preparation for the **** installation charges. The **** was installed today. The merchant attempted to process the purchase and was denied. I called GreenSky & spoke with a representative who stated that the account was active & had been since 9/1/22. I asked why the purchase was denied. She paused, & responded that she was seeing that now the account was closed. I asked how an account can be both active and closed? Why was it closed when I did not close it? Why do I have access to a online portal which states I have an open line of credit? She said she was going to place me on hold & figure it out. 20 minutes later she returned, stated that she corrected the ************ was active. I asked why it had stated it was closed, she gave no answer & said it was corrected & we should be able to process the purchase. Merchant ran purchase, again was denied. I called back GreenSky. Spoke to another rep who first stated that the account was active. I explained the issue, she paused, then replied that the account was closed. I asked why. She responded that the initial application was denied. I asked how an application that was approved on the 1st, has been active since the 1st, can all of a sudden be denied. She responded that it was denied after review, she then transferred me to another rep in accounts. That representative stated that the account application had been denied. I asked why. She stated she could not provide a reason (GreenSky is violating ECOA). She said she would forward my complaint to anther office. I have yet to hear from that office. My account is listed as active on the online portal. GreenSky's behavior is unprecedented & unethical.

      Date: 10/11/2022

      GreenSky investigated the primary applicants claims.   The credit application was approved in error.  The account was closed as soon as the mistake was found. However, the account was activated prior to the GreenSky closing the application.  Our records indicate that the primary applicant spoke with a Front Line Manager and was advised that she could reapply by herself.  We apologize for the applicants experience and will continue to improve our policies and training.

      [Your Answer Here]

      GreenSky has not provided a written explanation about why the application was approved in error. In my communications with the credit operations department, I was told: (a) the account was closed at 1:30pm 9/29/2022, the exact time that I called to raise concern about the merchant being unable to process payment, (b) the account was now closed and the online account will reflect the closure within 24 hours (c) we would be receiving a detailed letter explaining why our application was approved in error. Since that time, the online account has remained open and active with a line of credit displayed as available,I received a letter dated 9/30 which states At this time, your GreenSky Program Loan account has been closed at your request. If you would like to reopen this account, please contact our **************** team, on 10/4 I received another letter stating This letter will confirm our conversation in which we discussed the results of our investigation and the resolution of your complaint. The letter also stated that they contacted the merchant.
      We did not request the closure of the account. We did not have a conversation in which the results and a resolution were discussed. We have yet to receive a written explanation as to why our account was closed after it was open for 29 days until the day, we went to use the account, or why our application approved in error. They also had no communication with our merchant.

      We have not received a written explanation explaining why the account was closed and application denied after approval. On October 30th we filed a complaint with the *** DA for violation of ECOA. I received a phone call on Nov. 1st from a GreenSky customer service representative stating that they reviewed our case and will open our account. I explained that this does not resolve the issue because it has been a month since the account was closed without notice and we had to pay the vendor out of pocket. I again requested a written explanation for the account closer and application denial. The customer service representative then asked if I would like to close the account and I hung up.

The letter is a Past Due Notice that I owe $19,217.25 and the Lender is BMO ****** BANK N.A. The problem is I never applied for this Loan. I don't even know who this company is. This amount is showing up on my Credit Score under Personal Loans. I would like to see the Original contract that was in my name, I never gave authority for this loan. I believe this a mistaken Identity, or a fraud nature, meaning that someone else has taken my ID. I would also like a copy of the signature of this contract.

      Company is criminal and fraudulently collecting interest payments from me. A $1,100 transaction was reversed twice once on the 08/31/22 and again on 9/21/22 both for the same amount which as a result charging my credit account twice. The people who were looking through my account carelessly pushed two of the same transactions after having my account on hold unusable for 5 months. Every representative i have spoken to has been no help and all have progressively made everything worse with no resolution. I need the second duplicate charge removed before it is reported to the credit agency.

      Goldman Sachs Bank *** (the Bank) received the above-referenced complaint related to Apple Card via the Better Business Bureau (BBB) Complaint Portal on September 21, 2022.

The Customer initially disputed the transaction on April 27, ************************************************************************ the amount of $2,220.00 while the dispute was investigated. Based on the Banks investigation, the dispute was resolved as a split decision partially in favor of the Customer and the Merchant on June 08, 2021 after the merchant H&B Xtreme Atv Ren issued a refund to the Customers account in the amounts of $850.00 and $250.00 on April 26, 2021. As a result, the Bank reversed part of the temporary credit in the amount $1,100.00 and made the remaining credit totaling $1,120.00 permanent.

      Due to an inadvertent technology issue, the Customers available credit for the amount ruled in the Customers favor was unavailable for use totaling $1,100.00. On September 21, 2022, the Customers available credit was made available for use, however, due to another inadvertent technology issue, $1,100.00 was rebilled to the Customers account a second time in error.On September 29, 2022, the Bank applied a permanent credit to the Customers account in the amount of $1,100.00 and the applicable interest assessed totaling $203.20. The Bank confirmed the Customer has been made whole. The Bank regrets any frustrations or confusion the Customer has experienced.

      On 9/18/22, I applied for an Apple credit card through Goldman Sachs Bank. I have good credit, yet my application was denied. The reason given for denial was, "You have applied a number of times and we cannot verify the information you have provided at this time".I have not applied a number of times. Their claim of such is a lie. I applied once.The fact they cannot verify the information provided is a lie too. Everything I provided in the application is verifiable.

      Extremely predatory. Major scam. Deceptive and falsified agreement terms. Bait-and-switch tactics. Advertised promotion period is four months, not one year as promised. Promotion terms are falsified, as exorbitant interest fees are compounded daily within the so-called promotion period, which stated no interest would be charged during this period. I would have been better off paying the contractor directly in full. If Greensky will agree to remove the predatory and falsified interest charges, I will pay the account in fulll, in the amount we originally agreed to, and never have any further contact with this unethical business.

      Business Response

      Date: 09/23/2022

      Upon receipt of the customers concerns, GreenSky spoke to the customer, explained the loan terms, and the deferred interest.  It is our policy to include the accruing interest on the customers monthly statements so that the customer knows how much interest is accruing.  At the top of the customers monthly statement it states, You are on a deferred interest plan.  To have your total deferred interest accrued waived, pay off your promotional balance of $x,xxxx.** by promotion expiration date of 08/12/2023.  Additionally, the loan document state Interest charged to account is waived if entire purchase balance is paid before the end of the promo period.   We will be happy to discuss this further with the customer upon her returning our call.  It is our goal to provide excellent service.

      4-26-22 purchases were made using my apple card (Goldman-Sachs ). The purchases were made online. Four Phones were purchased. Each cost $999.00 totaling $3,996.00. The transaction is fraudlent. As soon as I was aware that my identity was stolen I contacted Apple and Goldman Sachs to make them aware of fraud. May 5, 2022 an adjustment was made but still left a balance of $1,884.38 on my account. The person that stole my identity financed the phones on my apple card. I have tried through numerous calls and also with the help of my local bank to no avail to get this taken care of. I filed a police report immediatly and all of my local banks have removed any loans or debit card purchases. Goldman Sachs still has not taken care of the remaining balance. I did not purchase any phones and you can see on my statement they were all purchased in the same tranaction. I will attach the police report and my Apple Card statement for verification. I am requesting the apple card be brought to a zero balance and the card CLOSED so the hacker may not use the card again. I would also like the derogatory information be removed from my credit report.

The Bank does this to protect Consumers from identity theft and fraud. Subsequently, the Bank declined the application as a result of the inability to verify the identity of the applicant. Consequently, and in adherence with applicable law, the Bank sent the Consumer an email detailing the reasons the application was not approved. If the applicant chooses to reapply, they should ensure they are inputting the correct personal identifying information on the application, and if prompted to upload a photo ID, ensure it is a clear photo of an unobstructed state-issued ID or Drivers license.
      Based on the above details, we kindly request this complaint be closed.
