A few months ago, I disputed a fraud charge on my chime account. They closed my account and they did send me my first closure check, but then they finally decided that the fraud was accurate and they credited my account finally with a permanent refund. They are now holding the money and they have not sent me my check it has been over 60 days. I have emailed them and called them multiple times, they email back and say they will take care of it but it has been 60 days now.Business Response

I visited the atm on narcoosee (address shown in receipt) My first transaction for $400 processed. The second transaction for $400 withdrew the money from my account right before the screen on the atm crashed and stated it was out of order. I never received the cash for the second transaction. I reached out to chime and spoke with ***** after a 20 minute hold. I asked questions for clarification on the waiting time to get the money back. To this, ***** responded with a heinous attitude. July 9th I reached out to confirm the creation of the claim and it turns out the claim never existed. I created a new dispute to which chime responded that it will take up to 45 days to return the money and I might not be eligible for the credit. I have rent i need to pay month, not in a month in a half. I want my money back. This is ridiculous and not how a business should run their company whatsoever. *** had friends tell me they havent even gotten a refund despite not getting the money. *** worked with other banks that have immediately credited the account and finished the investigation quickly. I severely regret working with chime. As I told chime you can speak to the 711 and see me clearly on the security camera at the time of incident not getting the money.Business Response

Received no type of notification my chime card was frozen/locked bc of unusual activity, but tried to log into the app. Emailed support, was told Id hear something in a few days. Never did. Emailed again and got a laundry list of items (including my other bank account statements) they were requesting. Did not feel comfortable providing, asked for my account to be closed via the telephone. ********* told me my account would be closed and I would be issued a refund check in the mail for the $20 some odd dollars I had remaining in my account. Received an email a few days later stating my account had been closed and was not eligible for a refund. What kind of scam is this? I deposit money into my account and you all close it and do not issue a refund? That sounds like theft.I am demanding a refund check for the money that was remaining in my account.Business Response

On July 3, 2023, during a routine monitoring of accounts, we identified some unusual activity regarding the amount and/or origin of certain funds which were deposited to ******'s Chime account. As a result, we placed a hold on the account and requested documentation from ****** that could verify the source of the funds deposited.
On July 9, 2023, we determined that the account of ****** was not in compliance with Chimes internal policies and the account agreement provided at account opening, therefore we exercised our right to close the account.

I had recently got hacked and had a complete account takeover. I got access back to my account and there were fraudulent and unauthorized transactions totaling close to $5,000.00. So I then started disputing transactions via phone & online app. They only approved about $1,5000.00 of that. Now what I cant understand is why the rest of the charges that were unauthorized and fraudulent, got denied on my dispute. I then disputed the denied disputes & was very clear with them that I felt that they were disrespectful in saying that the transactions were not fraudulent and no further action was to be taken when in all actuality, they were lying and they were making me out to be a liar. They denied my dispute on the denied disputes. I feel as if they are making me out to look like a fool and lying and I dont find it professional at all. Im very close to taking legal action against them if they cant return my funds to me that are FDIC insured like they claim. This isnt right and I want something done about it.Business Response

Yesterday, Friday the 8th of July, i got an email stating that my bank Chime has decided i have violated their deposit agreement and that all three of my accounts with them were closed and not eligible for repayment. I emailed them multiple times asking for clarification on what i violated, stating i only get deposits from work, the occasional venmo, or depositing cash. I received many many emails from them. Some stating i wont get a refund, one that says both that i will and will not receive a refund. One that says i will get a refund check in 30 days. Other emails say theyve escalated the situation.After fighting my way through their customer service menu on the phone, i finally was able to speak to someone, who stated there was nothing he could do and that Id have to wait for an email. He also mentioned that i had various loads of money that couldnt be verified. When i asked for clarification i was told he did not have any answers. after ending that call, i received another email saying theyve reviewed my account and i will not receive my money back.In one of the emails they stated they needed identification and all my pay stubs from the previous 3 months (almost 20 paystubs). I asked for a new link because the original one didnt work, and got a final email stating i violated said deposit agreement and will not receive any money.This is very confusing and frustrating. I see that this is happening a lot and i believe something needs to be done before even more people lose their entire bank account balance with no warning or answers. Attached is a document with all of my email correspondence with ChimeBusiness Response

I started receiving emails on July 7th about a new account opened in my name. I emailed them back, about the person was not me. I called them on the 8th and the person on the other end said his name was ****, hung up on me, I called back and and the same person answered and told me that he sent everything to his supervisor and he would be calling me back. He never called, cause I never gave hime my number, never verified anything. I just got an email stating that a bite card was being sent out to me. I found an option to chat in one of the emails. When I went in chat at 7:31, the chat program said someone would be with me in 14 minutes, I waited and waited and no one came on. I need to make sure this account is stopped, closed and make sure nothing goes on my credit. My name and social security number was used to open a credit card in 2 other companies.

On June 20th 2023, I transferred $2,500 from my Chime bank account to my linked Cashapp account. The transaction was disputed, and Chime charged back $2,500 from my cashapp without crediting or returning the funds to either accounts. I have filed multiple disputes requesting my funds and they have all been met with denial and rude inarticulate customer service based out of a foreign country. The chargeback occured over a week ago, and chime has stated that they have found no evidence of reason for dispute so they plan to not release my funds to either account.Business Response

When members notice an error with transactions on their Chime accounts, they can file a dispute through Chime. Disputes can be filed over the phone, by email or in the Chime app. On June 22, 2023, Jonathan contacted Chime to dispute a transaction that they claim was not received. Chime opened an investigation
As part of our dispute investigation, Chime may file a chargeback. A chargeback is a request to the merchant, from Chime, to have the funds from a disputed transaction returned to the member. Merchants are able to reject chargebacks and can provide their own evidence to show that a transaction is legitimate.
On June 28, 2023, ******** requested to cancel their dispute claim. As a result, the chargeback was reversed and payment was released to the merchant. We recommend contacting the merchant for additional information on when *********************** receive the funds from that merchant.

I am rejecting this response because:
This is not the first time Chime has opened a rebuttal of this claim just to close it at a later date. This is the 3rd rebuttal, and I have provided clear proof chime initiated a chargeback of $2,500 from cash app. Chime claimed to close the dispute, however never returned the charge back to cash app or my account. The clear stated issue is the mishandling and now disappearance of $2,500. If chime wishes to close the dispute, why did they not return the chargeback amount of $2,500. This has gone on beyond the standard wait time only due to chime continuing to force rebuttals upon closing the dispute.
Sincerely,

I was at work when I got a notification that $100 had been charged to my Chime bank account at ******** Again, I was at work & not at a gas station so this charge was obviously fraudulent. I have had $1000+ fraudulently taken out of my bank account over the years & still kept banking with Chime because they always resolved the issues when I filed a dispute & gave me my money back. This time, I filed a dispute for the $100 ******* charge & it was immediately denied. Chimes response was that they concluded no error occurred. This is obviously extremely frustrating as I was clearly not at a gas station while I was at work. No one else has access to my account or card information. I explained all of this & sent screenshots of my time sheet proving I was at work. This was 9 days ago & I have not heard from Chime since. I feel like my personal ******************* is not safe or protected with this institution. $100 may not be a lot of money but it makes a difference for me. It shouldnt be this hard to get back whats yours.Business Response
