I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice 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.

Company: Chime Financial Inc (IL)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a complaint that my account was compromised and {$2200.00} was wrongfully taken out of my account from a random third party. My account was then closed XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, the amount of {$2200.00} was refunded back to my account, however the account was already closed. I received a notification about the dispute being refunded, however, it was in my junk folder and I did not see it until XX/XX/XXXX. According to my transactions history, Chime redacted the refund on XX/XX/XXXX. I have not received any notification to where the money that was rightfully mine went. 

I then contacted Chime in regards to my money and was told the inquiry would need to go through to investigations and they would reply with XXXX hours. That time had elapsed and no update. Eventually, I was calling every XXXX business days in regards to the same situation and every time, it was treated as if I had never called in the first place. 

I finally got some feedback from Chime but it was only that the dispute was approved and the {$2200.00} was approved and paid out on XX/XX/XXXX, but nothing about the transaction from XX/XX/XXXX, the date of the issue I was complaining about, Chime taking my money from my account without any notification. 

It has now been over XXXX month of continual contact with Chime and no improvement, no updates and no payment of {$2200.00}, that is rightfully mine.
