Consumer complaint received 2025-07-15 00:00:00
Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Cashing a check
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have encountered with Chase Bank concerning a check deposit from XXXX XXXX XXXX and the subsequent hold placed on my account. 

On XX/XX/year>, I deposited a refund check from XXXX XXXX XXXX, which was issued as a refund for a policy. The check became available on the on XX/XX/XXXX ; however, shortly after, my account was locked, and I was informed that the check was under review for fraud. 

I contacted XXXX customer service, where a representative informed me that in order to verify the check, I would need to provide a phone number for XXXX XXXX XXXX. After researching and providing the requested phone number, I was informed by XXXX that the number was incorrect. This was despite the fact that I had obtained the phone number from reliable sources. 

Further complications arose when I spoke to a supervisor. The supervisor indicated that the account would be locked for 10 days, after which the account would be closed for fraud if they could not verify the phone number for the payer. This information was extremely concerning, as I had done everything requested and was still unable to resolve the issue. 

To resolve this matter, I visited the XXXX XXXX, FL Chase branch on XX/XX/year>, where a branch banker attempted to assist me by providing additional phone numbers for XXXX XXXX XXXX. The banker also confirmed that XXXX XXXX XXXX is a subsidiary of XXXX XXXX. Despite this, the Chase representative over the phone refused to lift the hold on my account. Furthermore, the banker escalated the issue to a different associates, but both of them failed to understand the issue or make any progress toward a solution. 

This situation is deeply frustrating, as I have followed all instructions, provided necessary information, and acted in good faith. It seems as though there is a lack of communication and understanding on the part of Chase Bank, which has led to an unnecessary hold on my account and an unjustified threat of account closure for fraud.

I respectfully request that the Financial Protection Bureau look into this matter and intervene to ensure that the issue is resolved promptly. I would appreciate any assistance in ensuring that my account is reinstated without further delay and that the improper hold is lifted.

To do what is fair to me as a consumer, delete and update my credit report as they are reporting inaccurate information that I have made them aware of but still keep reporting!

Complaint narrative:
Was trying to sell a freezer online. Pick up in person, no delivery. A person called my wife asking about said item and stated they can pay on cashapp. Money was sent but there was a problem due to being over my limit. An email was received saying to call cashapp in order for funds to be released to my account. I call the number given to me in the email, which looked legit by the way. Had cashapp heading and XXXX. The scammer asked if I was interested in opening a business account through cashapp stating that it would raise my limit and funds can be released. Asked for me to scan my ID for security assurance. Had me send money to cashapp and cashapp was supposed to send it back into my new business account. BY the time I released it was a scam it was to late. Called cashapp on a different phone and explained what happened. A claim number was given concerning an investigation saying it would take 10 days. That was 9 days ago. Cashapp has done nothing to help not only myself but they have let there platform become a platform of scammers and degenerates. I'm out my car note. I don't know what I'm going to do this month. I needed that money.

Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease — Problem with the interest rate
Company: FIDELITY CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year>, I worked with a broker at Fidelity Capital to finance {$63000.00} in equipment for my small business. The representative ( XXXX XXXX stated the interest rate would be 7 %. Based on that verbal representation, I signed the loan documents through XXXX XXXX XXXX. The agreement specified monthly payments of {$1500.00} for 60 months, but no interest rate, APR, or finance charges were ever disclosed in the documents. 

After making over {$48000.00} in payments, I contacted XXXX and Fidelity Capital to request the actual interest rate and amortization schedule. At that point, XXXX was no longer with Fidelity. Another rep, XXXX, admitted they had no documentation showing the real interest rate and instead provided a link to a public lease calculator that estimated the rate at 16.7 %. 

When I asked how a {$63000.00} loan could still have a {$58000.00} balance after two years of payments, neither company provided a valid explanation. I was never given an amortization schedule or full breakdown of principal vs. finance charges. 

Fidelity Capital failed to disclose critical loan information, misrepresented the loan terms, and facilitated an agreement with excessive and undisclosed repayment costs. This has caused substantial financial harm to my business and contributed to a vehicle repossession.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against XXXX, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where XXXX  has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as XXXX XXXX inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer. Also getting an apartment has been extremely difficult but according to the 15 U.S. Code 1681o for negligence and non compliance, there shouldnt be damages to my credit report, this is basically defamation of my character

I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.
