Company: Chime Financial Inc (NV)

I have an account with Chime online bank. My account received XXXX direct deposits from Nevada XXXX : {$740.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, and {$13000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. 
I was arrested and my probation revoked on XX/XX/XXXX. I remained incarcerated from that day until XX/XX/XXXX. My ex boyfriend hacked into my cash app account, which was connected to my Chime account via my Chime debit card, while I was incarcerated. He then transferred all the money out of my Chime account into my cash app account using the attached Chime debit card, and then transferred all the money from my cash app to his and a few other accounts. I did not authorize this, and I had no access to my account during my incarceration. 

I filed a police report with the XXXX XXXX, Nevada sheriff 's office upon discovering the fraudulent activity. I also filed a dispute with both Chime and cash app. Both institutions closed my dispute claims, despite documentation I provided them proving my incarceration, identity and the police report filed. There is no way I could have authorized these transactions from a prison cell. 

Chime refuses to credit the money transferred out of my account back into my account, though they are FDIC insured. The reasons they give are : XXXX. I didn't have my card when the transactions took place. 
XXXX. The cash app transactions were normal for my account. 
I did transfer money from my Chime account to my cash app account when I was not incarcerated, but never in those amounts or worth that frequency, and I couldn't do so while I was in jail. It is also not possible for me to have my card while in prison. My father tried to have them cancel my card while I was in prison, but Chime also refused that without a notarized Power of Attorney.
