Complaint narrative:
JP Morgan Chase Headquarters XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX, NY XXXX Dear sir, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX, I received this email to my address, XXXX. However, my registered email to your company should be XXXX. Since, yesterday, my attempted transaction at the United States Postal Office addressed XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, NJ XXXX ; however, I could not use my Chase credit card and needed to use another bank card. Since I do not use this Chase credit card often because of the chaos of last year which happened by the illegal transactions and replacement of cards, several times, simply I do not use so often this card ; because whenever I chanced the card numbers for the payment, some illegal transaction happened and I needed to change again to another card ; therefore, I just decided not to add this Chase card for the preferred card. Then, after I returned from my work, I realized the email from your company to XXXX  address. At first, honestly, I thought it is fraud or phishing, since I had many phishing mails last year, too. Therefore, I have decided to ask the investigation. When I started to work on this letter, I had some transaction needed to finish online. Then, my transaction with this Chase card was again refused. Therefore, I called your customer service and the woman, who had the dialect of XXXX, asked me something fraud activities, and I told her I could not use my Chase card without any reason, since I did not use at all, and I did not know why I could not. Anyway, at least, she must have unlocked my card and made my card usable. I asked her whether my registered email is XXXX and she said yes. However, I do not remember whether I have registered the financial email addresses to this XXXX addresses. Anyway, since I do not use this Chase card often at this moment, it is fine to keep your company credit card information with this email, but not my husband, which supposed to be managed by himself until his death. The main point is there is no explanation why my card was refused for my transactions after these unbelievable uncountable illegal matters. Therefore, I request official explanation. 
Sincere,

I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.
