Every one investigated and found the above information to be true. Everyone returned my funds with the exception of chime financial. I provided them with my XXXX timeline proving where I was at the time of the theft. I also provided a photo still taken from my home security footage, 1 letter from each of the business where my card was used for my bank as evidence. Each business owner prefer their own independent investigation and each found that the theft was no fault of mine. The man in my security cameras at home matched the man illegally withdrawing funds using my debit card. There were several charges. 1 in store, with card presented at check out to make a purchase, and 5 total ATM withdrawals between the 2 business. I uploaded the proof and sunny my dispute straight to chime. Within XXXX how my cousin was denied without even a proper investigation. The GPS/timeline information shower I never left my home.

WHEN MY CLAIM WAS IMMEDIATELY DENIED by come without any tell investigation, i reached out again to chime to file an appeal/rebuttal. I've asked 5 additional time and reach time my claim was immediately DENIED. Even though they have the undeniable proof from myself and the business owners that this was theft, chime still refuses to return the money. I need help. Upon doing a little research into chime and their track record where disputes are concerned it turns out that they never give in favor of their clients. I found over XXXX complaints exactly like mine where people have given endless and absolute proof and chime had continue to deny their dispute claims, appeals, and any rebuttals they filed. They just ended up losing their money. I can't to that I need my funds for my family. This was all we had left. In total {$960.00} was stolen. Please help.
