My account was hacked on 3/24 at 6am. My bank details were changed, and money was transferred out of $4000, as well as a temporary card requested in order to make 7 purchases of $6033 in weird named merchants that don't even exist online anywhere. All unauthorized. I contacted Chime asap to request all my details be put back to mine so I can go back into my hacked account that had been wiped out. I changed my password, and put a stop to the temporary card that was used for fraud and in which the transactions were still pending. My debit and credit card were canceled, and new ones were sent out. I filed a report with the consumer financial protection bureau, ************** of ********************* station, and ******* ***** Of law enforcement, FTC and identity theft. Com. I also put a fraud alert in all credit Bureaus. I sent all proof to chime, Which as per their policy, With these official reports I Would be able to recover my money.

I am rejecting this response because:The timeline reflected by Chime is incorrect.
On April 24th I opened the disputes Also attaching more evidence of the hacking and unauthorized transaction as I received an email from CHIME advising that there was suspicious activity - attaching.
On April 5th Just two days before I can obtain my provisional credit, the dispute was denied again, and I called to re-opened the claim, also submitted more evidence as I have emails showing the unauthorized changes to my account that consisted of the phone number being changed twice to area codes in which I do not even live in, and also the email being changed.
April 7th Just two days later, which is an impossible time frame for CHIME to re-investigate anything. It was Denied again, and I called once more to re-open claim.
I am attaching all the times I was on the phone with CHIME back and forth. The Last phone call I spoke to a supervisor named *******, who advised me that he was going to properly notate my account to reflect that my account was HACKED so that I would get a favorable outcome, and that he was going to expedite it so I wouldnt wait so long for this issue to be resolved and properly handled. CHIME should have all phone calls recorded.
I have contacted the following departments and have opened cases on this issue with CHIME in order to prove even more that this transaction was hacked and unauthorized.
Consumer financial protection bureau
Federal ****** of *********************** station: *************************, report number ************, address: *******************************br>Better Business Bureau

I am rejecting this response because:Chime has never asked me to send proof of me trying to cash the check. I have taken each check they sent me to multiple banks & they all say the same thing.
Chime keeps offering to send me new checks so that's enough proof to show that something isn't right & also they assured me I would be able to cash my check but I wasn't this would now be the 3rd check that they have sent me.
This issue has been going on since March 8th I am due to have my baby May 22nd, so this is hurting me finically.
Chime is not helping in any type of way besides sending checks that are verifiable. I am very disappointed

Chime is discriminating against me because of the way I received my payments so they were refusing to allow me to use spot me when I receive the payments and direct deposits that is required but they won't allow me the spot me feature solely because of where my payments come from which is discrimination against me and the way I receive my money.

On march 23,2023 I reserved a text message from chime saying this is your security code keep your account safe dont share this code. I login to my account and I try and change my password. My account somehow freezes and logged me out. I get another message saying my phone number has been changed, and a bunch of transactions start being made to a cash app account by the name of ********. I reach out to the chime support team and they tell me they have stopped all transactions but I keep getting notifications saying my money is being transferred to this cash app person. I file a dispute on all the transactions that were made and they tell me they will look into it. I received an email a couple weeks later saying there was no error and my money will not be reimbursed to me. Im very upset because they didnt take ten or twenty dollars it was ***** dollars. I just want to get my money back. I am beyond frustrated and dont know what else to do.Business Response

On April 2nd some one hacked into my account. They changed my address and tried to link a card to my account. I immediately called several times and spoke to different representatives and supervisors. I was sent a link to upload all my personal information and also to send a email to explain the situation which I did. I was later sent a link and told that my account was closed and I wasnt getting my money back. They keep saying I dont meet the terms and conditions. They kept asking for the mastercard that was linked to my account and kept telling them that wasnt my Mastercard and whoever tried to hack my account was responsible for the credit card. Ive been dealing with this for a week and no resolution. Im trying to get my money that was taken and my account back.Business Response

April 2nd 4:56. I had went to make the purchase of my rent using my Chime bank account through Venmo. Venmo cleared my purchase and the morning after Chime made another transaction for $2500 and cleared it. The original posting was now pending and me moneyless. I call them and after 5 people they claim they have made a dispute and gave me the number. April 7th 2023 They had taken my check which I obviously need after 6 days of having no money. I calll up chime and they claim that no dispute has been made and not admitted to them lying to me. I tell them to bring up call logs which claim to be recorded for my care.
