Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX FL XXXX XX/XX/2023 Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to request the removal of a late payment from my credit report that occurred during the XXXX pandemic. The late payment was for Account Ending in XXXX. I experienced financial difficulties during this time due to the pandemic, which made it challenging for me to make timely payments. 

I am now in the process of trying to purchase a home, and I am concerned that this late payment will negatively impact my ability to secure a mortgage. As you may know, a late payment on a credit report can stay on the report for up to seven years, and it can have a significant impact on my credit score.

I would like to request that you remove this late payment from my credit report as a gesture of goodwill given the exceptional circumstances surrounding the XXXX pandemic. I have since regained my financial footing and have made every effort to stay current on my accounts. Based on my otherwise spotless payment history, I would like to request that you apply a goodwill adjustment to remove the late payment mark from my credit report. Granting this request will help me improve my overall credit history and demonstrate my consistency as a creditworthy borrower. 

Removing this late payment from my credit report would greatly improve my chances of obtaining a mortgage and realizing my dream of owning a home. I believe that this removal will help me rebuild my credit and achieve my financial goals. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you require any further information or documentation, please do not hesitate to contact me. 

Sincerely, XXXX

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Cashing a check

Complaint:
I am an XXXX  XXXX  student that moved in to NY less than a month ago. I have recently opened a Chase account so I could receive the XXXX  from my university. My friend, who is also an XXXX  student, did exactly the same thing. 
She had to transfer some money to me, so, after we opened our accounts, she tried to do a XXXX transfer in the amount of {$3000.00}. Because her account was new, she was not able to do it, so she did a {$500.00} XXXX transfer and Chase employee advised her to deposit me a check of the rest of the amount ( {$2500.00} ). 
This deposit had my account restricted because they can not verify her phone number. So now I'm not able to use my money or to deposit my university stipend check. 

I've called Chase several times and no one was able to do anything while she does not have a " good number ''. On XX/XX/XXXX, the XXXX of us went in person to a Chase branch with all of our IDs to discuss this in person, and again no result. They told us that the phone is the only way to verify a person! 
My friend even contacted her phone provider and they told her that the number is already registered in her name. 
So now I'm stuck with this restricted account that has my rent payment and I can't close my account, I can't solve this, I can deposit my payment. I can't do anything and apparently neither my friend nor anyone at Chase can. 

It is very frustrating and I am incredibly disappointed with my customer experience so far. I'm being punished for a data mismatch that is not my own data!
