The company unfairly changed the terms of my credit card during the COVID pandemic. I have been making perfect on-time payments and have been a long time customer of Chase. I have a XXXX XXXX in the XXXX. I received a notice that the terms of my credit card was changed and it involved an increase in penalty APR ( i.e. for late payments ). I feel this is price gouging during the COVID pandemic when many people are financially strained. Shame on Chase for attempting to price gouge! According to the call center supervisor and email, I have the right to reject these changes. However, rejecting these changes will force me to close the account which is not an option with a current balance. I am not happy with this change and I am speaking up on behalf of myself and other people who are subjected to these unfair terms and price gouging. The change of terms for my credit card was received on XX/XX/2021 by email. 

I feel the timing of the change in credit card terms that involve increase fees is inappropriate and unethical considering the current COVID pandemic. I feel this is price gauging. 

I filed a XXXX  complaint but Chase responded that it has the right to change the terms. I was not happy with this response as it felt like price gauging with disregard to the COVID pandemic. I notified Chase that I will proceed with a CFPB complaint.
