Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service — Mobile or digital wallet
Issue: Fraud or scam — 
Company: Chime Financial Inc (CA)

I received a text from Chime on XX/XX/2024 about a transaction attempt. When I replied " no '' I got a response that a customer service team member was going to reach out to me. They had all my banking info and called to tell me that there were a few attempted purchases being made. They said my account had been breached and they would have to close my account and create a new one. They instructed me to transfer money out of my savings and that a chime supervisor was going to send me a link to follow so I can attempt to test a transfer to create a new account. The agent told me there wouldn't be any funds taken out and it was only a test. Once I realized there was indeed a transfer happening I tried to stop it but to no avail. The person stopped contact and the call went silent. Everything seemed so legitmate because Chime does normally send a text when I attempt to use my card to pump gas or make other purchases. I called Chime to try and clarify if it was real and found out they don't make calls to customers and that's when I realized I was scammed. I tried to dispute it with screen shot proof of what I had. From the text messages to the incoming call from this person that impersonated to be a Chime Representative. Chime responded back and denied my claim leaving me at a financial lost of {$1900.00}. It also shows the person that scammed me was also a chime member so I cant understand why they couldn't help me retrieve my funds or at least put a freeze on that individuals account. I have already filed a police report and contacted Chime again about recovering my funds. I'm hoping they can credit me for the lost amount of money.

So I buy this truck and I have it a little over a month or so and the transmission goes out. I have a job to get to so I call them and say hey the truck you told me that runs great and will get me where I needed to go. Wont go can you fix it or help me fix it or borrow me a vehicle to get back and forth to work they said no. So I said well I dont want it then I put down a lot of money for a running vehicle. They laughed and said it was running. And I surrendered the vehicle about a month or so later I see that truck driving down the street so I followed it to a store and when the dude got out I said nice truck he said he bought it presently thanks. So I call PAC and said did you guys sell the truck they said no it went to a salvage yard. So I thought I might be mistaken then I called PAC again a couple days later someone else answered I acted like I was a new customer and said my friend recently bought a truck that they replaced the transmission in and he loves it now they tell me they sold him it and its a great truck and I should get to their dealership. I hang up so a few days later I called and told them they did me wrong and I feel like they should take it off my credit since they made a profit selling it for {$8000.00} they said they do t do that and told me I was burnt. So Ive been disputing them for five years now and I am sick of them keeping me down and reporting for a vehicle that I overpaid for and returned because it broke and they fixed and sold for more then what I bought it for. I mean how many times are they going to get paid on the same vehicle they lied to me said this truck would last me years and talked me into buying a lemon and are forging and fraudulently reporting a balance incorrectly and hindering me from providing myself with a better line of credit it isnt right and no one is doing anything about it but me why? When will they stop harassing me over a vehicle they got paid for from someone else and something has to happen XXXX sick of it they are relentless on making me pay for a vehicle that was garbage and I gave it back

My account with XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in XXXX be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

XXXX never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule XXXX and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
