Issue: Closing your account — Company closed your account
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (TX)

Over a decade ago, I was accused of " potentially '' running a business out of my home by JPMorgan Chase Bank. Even though my employer 's DIRECT DEPOSIT checks were going straight to the bank, I was asked to provide evidence that I was not running a potentially troubling business [ long story short ]. At that time, during the questioning I received at a branch, in person, the " red flag '' that was apparently setting off their system was that I had too much " money coming in '' and was also " spending too much money '' [ to the effect of ]. XXXX XXXX  I pay my mortgage and bills [ which I provided full evidence for, although I shouldn't have had to, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ]. 

Finally, they had [ supposedly ] cleared my account and allowed me to continue banking. However, they continued to choose that I was a " risk '' and flagged my account as " undesirable '' without explanation. Whenever I tried to get an explanation, I was told that they didn't need to tell me. I, luckily, had an insider who was willing to show me that this was the case. My account was flagged as that I was curious as to why my account closed and that I was to be told simply that Chase was " exercising its rights '' and didn't " need to provide an explanation. '' My attorney had said I may have a valid complaint, but that it may take many, many years to see it come to fruition. I licked my wounds and bowed out. Someone else didn't. A class action filed against Chase for shutting consumers down without explanation while first insinuating wrongdoing on the consumers ' part was successful. 

I decided that, given the fact that I have a completely clean record, I may try to get a credit card. I applied for an XXXX XXXX XXXX, was approved, given a credit limit and I was off. I also have an auto loan that I am currently and faithfully paying. However, this didn't stop Chase from closing my credit card account, once again, without any explanation other than " previous undesirable relationship. '' I'd really love to know what I did wrong and why they continue to discriminate against my having business with them when the only evidence they can provide to me is " we don't need to provide evidence '' as to why they mistreat consumers with good records.

" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "

Company: BANKMOBILE TECHNOLOGIES, INC (FL)

On XX/XX/2023, I received a text from BankMobile XXXX XXXX asking me to verify a charge on my debit card. I did not recognize the charge and logged into my account to find that several charges had been made overnight to XXXX that I had not authorized. Charges in the amounts of {$21.00}, {$100.00}, {$39.00}, and {$39.00}. I responded that I had not authorized the charges and was called by a representative of BankMobile. All she said was that she confirmed that I didn't make the charges and that I would have to call customer service about cancelling my card and getting reimbursed. I called the customer service number and was transferred twice. The XXXX person I spoke with said I couldn't do anything about the charges until they had fully cleared my bank account, but the money was considered gone and I could not access it. I asked her to cancel my card and that I wanted to speak with a supervisor. She told me that there was no supervisor to speak with. After several minutes of back and forth, she transferred me to " Rain '' who said he was a supervisor. He asked me if I wanted to cancel my card, which I had already asked three separate representatives to do. I was then told that I couldn't use the money, but couldn't refute the charges until they had fully cleared. He said I should just call XXXX and contest the charges with them because it would be easier for me to do it instead of them. I was traveling across the country at this time and was unable to use my debit card and had money stolen from me, but they said nothing could be done for at least 5 days. When the money was officially taken out of my account a few days later, I filed claims against each charge. I received an email that it would take the institution 10 days to investigate. It is now XX/XX/XXXX and I have not received reimbursement nor have I received any correspondence from BankMobile. I have tried to contact them a couple times via email to no response and tried to call again, but was put on a lengthy hold and never reached anyone. I have never had a financial institution that does absolutely nothing when their clients have money stolen from their accounts - then makes them jump through hoops to get their money back. I will be finding banking elsewhere, but I need my money to be reimbursed. It should not take over 3 weeks to get my money back.
