Consumer Narrative
My credit card account was originally with XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) XXXX XXXX. Then Goldman Sachs took them over. I had a {$14.00} balance on the account. On XX/XX/2022, I attempted to pay off the balance. I made a phone payment and the agent said that they payment had been received. On XX/XX/XXXX, I got an email saying the the payment had NOT been received. On XX/XX/XXXX, I attempted again to make the payment, with the same result : The agent told me that the payment had bee received but a few days later, on XX/XX/XXXX, I got an email saying the payment had NOT gone through. Now I am being charged overdue fines because in Goldman 's eyes, I did not make the payment. I have spoken with their customer service department a couple of times and during one of theses conversations, the agent told me that they could not waive the late fees, and that somebody would call me about it. However, I live overseas, so getting through to me can be a bit of a challenge, so perhaps they DID try to reach me and couldn't get through ; I acknowledge that that is a possibility. In my last conversation with an agent ( Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX ), they told me that they would try to dispute the late fees ( which is kind of odd, since this is an intra-agency dispute ) and that it would take time, so much time that ANOTHER late payment fee would probably be added in the meantime. I asked how much of a payment I would need to make to avoid this and was given a figure of at least {$80.00} ( I don't remember the precise number ). I told the agent that I didn't think this was fair at all, and that I thought Goldman was engaging in predatory practices, and that I would NOT pay.
