I, XXXX XXXX, applied for a Chase Bank XXXX Edge Credit card around the month of XXXX, XXXX. This card comes with a 0 % APR on purchases and balance transfers for a promotional period. I got the card because of this advertisement and also because of this attached link ( https : //www.chase.comXXXX XXXX  which states that a balance transfer can be used for, " Pay for unexpected expenses or get cash. If you've received balance transfer checks, you can use them to pay for things you need or to get cash. If eligible, you can also sign in to Chase.com or call the number on the back of your card to transfer funds into a qualifying checking account. Successful payment history must be established for checking accounts you wish to use for transfers. '' However, when I called Chase Bank to make a balance transfer to my checking account I was notified that I can not do that until I have made 6 monthly payments. They have not been able to provide anything in writing that says this. They mislead me, negatively affected my credit, because they falsely advertised how their card can be used. I have my card member agreement and all other documents that were sent to me as of XX/XX/2023, and there is nothing in the card member agreement or other documents that state that I must wait for 6 monthly payments to go through to use this advertised benefit. 

Chase has not been helpful in this situation and send me in a " circle '' of department to department without being able to provide anything in writing about this policy.

Issue: Struggling to pay your bill — Credit card company won't work with you while you're going through financial hardship
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (NY)

I requested lower monthly payments on one of my credit cards due to financial hardship. I have been a customer with Chase for over twenty five years with a mortgage I have with them. I also have a business checking account.

Today in requesting lower monthly payments after being transferred to six different customer agents I received no help. The last customer support agent, XXXX was rude and hung up on me. 
Chase in the past has always treated me egregiously disrespectful. When people were applying for forbearance due to the Cares Act that was precipitated by the pandemic, Chase didnt want to give me my forbearance until I spent an enormous amount of time insisting on it.

Chase denied me a loan modification as I am an XXXX  person. 
I have a fixed rate mortgage but Chase raised my monthly payments claiming I have an escrow account and the New York tax bureau sent them a letter claiming my taxes were overdue. Chase never produced the letter but still hasnt reduced my monthly payment to what my fixed rate mortgage payment should be as stated on my note. And when I took the mortgage out I did not consent to an escrow account.

After receiving an unsatisfactory response to my 2nd dispute, I promptly escalated the matter by filing a Fifth dispute with the bureau. As per the FCRA, the agency is obligated to notify the furnisher of the disputed information and provide them with all relevant documentation. However, they failed to fulfill this obligation, and as a result, the furnisher continued to report the inaccurate information without any verification or correction. I also requested identifying information in reference to any supporting documentation to sustain why the items Ive disputed are continuing to report. I received nothing. 

In my previous complaint, I specifically requested identifying information and supporting documentation to justify why the disputed items are still being reported. To date, I have received no such documentation or any satisfactory explanation. 

The continued reporting of inaccurate information on my credit report is causing me significant distress and harm. 

I demand that the credit bureau take action on the following items immediately. 

XXXXXXXX XXXX : Account number : XXXX, A charge off account with balance? Clearly, this is an inaccuracy. Delete the account. 

XXXX XXXX : Account number : XXXX, A charge off account with balance? Clearly, this is an inaccuracy. Delete the account.

I lodged a complaint against these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. Surprisingly, I haven't received any response or correspondence from the Bureaus, and they have already closed my complaint. Could you please explain why they closed my complaint without resolving the issue? Have they even acknowledged or verified my dispute? I need assurance that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report and validated the accounts. Can you provide details about the methods they used to verify my report? This situation is incredibly frustrating! It has been more than XXXX  days since I filed the complaint, and I expected these accounts to be updated by now. If they are not updated immediately, I will have no other option but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.
