Chime is refusing to unblock my account and has been for the past two months. I had tried to transfer money to another bank account but it was sent back due to my clearview bank transactions being blocked. Because of this chime blocked my account and refuses to unblock it even when I show them the proof that they ask for. Each time I show the proof they send me another email with completely different details needing to be met. And when I still show the documentation they just repeat the email with different qualifications refusing to give me access to my money. This has been a hugely incredible hindrance to my life and has affected the children I provide for.
