XX/XX/XXXX : I applied for a CHASE SAPPHIRE XXXX XXXX Credit Card. I was told my application would be reviewed. 

XX/XX/XXXX : I successfully open a XXXX high yield savings account XX/XX/XXXX : I attempt to connect my bank ( XXXX doesnt take my bank. doesnt tell me this though! ) instead of giving me an error message it just locked me out PERMANENTLY for too many attempts. 

XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX : I call XXXX. They half remedy the issue by unlocking my account, I thought everything was fine. 

XXXX I find that I can't open new bank accounts. I can't connect accounts. Apparently XXXX sent XXXX some message saying I'm negative. From what I'm reading this mark with remain there for 5 years. No other information is available accept that I have the option to ask for this report and dispute it. Notice how much I need to do because XXXX 's platform doesn't inform you of THEIR website error. Websites are telling me " pay down debt '' as one of the steps. As if I did anything wrong or owe anyone money. 

XXXX I fill out my sensitive info for XXXX, click send, nothing happens. I try on a XXXX, same thing. I'm on a common laptop, like what's the issue? This is actually illegal on the part of XXXX, because they claim they will give me my report but it is inaccessible. I actually try to call, but the connection and accent is so bad I can't understand anyone and I give up. I promise I'm not being XXXX, just XXXX ; I really struggle to understand heavy accents. Inaccessible information that is mine. Hours spent by now. 

XXXX I call XXXX back to give them an opportunity to correct it ; the kind and unfortunate supervisor tells me that by their rules Discover can not do ANYTHING FOR ME~! I have to reach out to XXXX. He was upset as well, he didn't even know this could happen. 

XXXX filing this complaint. Will bring lawyers into the situation if needed. 

XX/XX/XXXX XXXX SAME DAY : I open my mail to find letter below stating inaccurate info : that my application was not approved because " A prior credit card or deposit account was closed by Chase '' Reference Number : XXXX I have never had a credit card or deposit account with chase. 

XXXX : I call chase - the workers on the phone don't even have record of that being the reason, furthermore they of course have no record of me having a prior credit card or deposit account with chase. They accuse me of having a fake letter MULTIPLE times despite the date and reference number being correct ( truly how ), the federal equal oppourtunity act notice on the back and all. They recommend I go into a physical branch because this is all they can do.
