Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: FL
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems
Sub-issue: Problem with cash advances

Complaint:
I a resident of Florida and has been a Chase credit card member since XX/XX/XXXX. I opened a Chase credit card account in or about XX/XX/XXXX. I made regular purchases of cryptos on XXXX using his Chase-issued credit card beginning in early XX/XX/XXXX. Up until and including XX/XX/XXXX, Chase treated all of my purchases on XXXX  as ordinary credit card Purchases under his cardholder agreement.

When I made additional crypto purchases from XXXX, using the same Chase credit card, on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, Chase suddenly treated all of these purchases as Cash Advances, and assessed at least {$90.00} in cash advance fees and over {$160.00} in cash advance interest charges ( as of XX/XX/XXXX ). Despite calling Chases customer service line to complain about the surprise charges on his account, Chase declined to remove them. I was forced to pay and did pay these surprise cash advance charges in full.

At no point did Chase attempt to notify me neither before nor immediately after I executed my latest crypto purchases that such purchases would be treated as Cash Advances rather than Purchases under his card member agreement.

Had I known that Chase was going to begin treating my customary Purchases as Cash Advances, then I would not have used my Chase credit card to buy cryptos on or after XX/XX/XXXX, and would not have incurred or been forced to pay the cash advance fees and interest charges that Chase levied against me.

Chase Bank USA, N.A. is domiciled in New York and is one of the largest national banks and credit card issuers in the United States. In late XX/XX/XXXX, Chase abruptly altered its customers credit card terms without notice such that any crypto purchases made by card members would be treated as Cash Advances rather than Purchases.

Due to my 0 % Transfers I made and 0 % APR on Purchases, this XXXX Transactions and Cash Advance Interest can not be paid in full till the other Balance is fully paid.

The Truth in Lending Act, at 15 U.S.C. 1637 ( i ) ( 2 ), requires credit card issuers to provide a written notice of any significant change, as determined by rule of the [ U.S. Consumer Financial Protection ] Bureau, in the terms... of the cardholder agreement between the creditor and obligor, not later than 45 days prior to effective date of the change.
