Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
An account was opened with Chase sometime in XXXX, a Southwest Business card. To my knowledge, I do not have any recollection of doing this myself. It is easy to verify this as you can see not a single charge was ever made on the account or any log in to any online portal. However, I recently learned that I was charged two payments of {$99.00} for a membership fee both in this year and last ( XXXX ). Although all workers I spoke with can verify that I never made any transactions they all refused to return the membership fee of {$99.00} from XXXX. Every time they would tell me they didn't have the authorization and would transfer me over to a different line. This went on for over an hour and a half until finally they transferred me over to the entirely wrong department causing us all to start over. In the end, despite the company confirming there was never any charges to this account and that I very well did not know I was even a member, they would not help to remove the membership fee. I am hoping that you can help me with this instead.

" As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681 section 602a ), it is stated that 'There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. ' Under 15 USC 6801, it is Congress 's policy that financial institutions must 'respect the privacy of its customers and protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. ' The furnisher of information to credit agencies is considered a financial institution under this statute.

According to 15 USC 1681 section 604a ( 2 ), 'any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. ' XXXX, XXXX, and the furnisher of information do not have my written consent to furnish my information. 

15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) specifies that 'A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. ' The furnisher of information never informed me of my right to exercise my nondisclosure option.

Moreover, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including certain adverse information in consumer reports without authorization. This account is an adverse item being reported without my permission, which is against the law.
