Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Closing an account — Funds not received from closed account
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>2023, my checking account at Chase bank was abruptly closed, with a balance of {$3500.00} at the time of closure. 
The bank didn't privide any reason for this action, and told me the money will be mailed back to me by check. However, it's already been 4 monthes and I still haven't get my own money. I talked with a chase branch clerk and he was also suprised by the action. However, it was said the money was under investigation and no clerks can do anything with the process. No one can help me to connect to the department in charge of the process, which is totally ridiculous. 
This caused big unconvenience to me as all my money was in that account. The situation is absolutely unacceptable! It's outrageous that Chase has arbitrarily closed your account without providing any valid explanation, leaving you stranded without access to your own money for months. The lack of transparency and accountability is utterly disgraceful. This ordeal has caused significant inconvenience and distress, and the fact that there's no clear pathway to resolution is infuriating. Chase must be held accountable for their actions and expedite the process of returning my funds immediately.

These actions have severely impacted my ability to meet financial obligations.

2. Denied International Wire Transfer : On XX/XX/2024, Wells Fargo unjustly denied my request to conduct an international wire transfer without providing a substantial explanation, disrupting my financial management plans. 

3. Directive to Close Accounts : Later the same day XX/XX/2024, I was informed by the bank that I needed to close all my accounts, without clear reasoning or justification provided. 

4. Account Freezing and Restricted Access to Funds : Upon attempting to close the accounts on XX/XX/2024, I discovered that my accounts were frozen, denying me access to my funds until XX/XX/2024.

- Potential damage to my credit score due to delayed payments, with long-term financial implications. This will cause damage to my credit report.

When I asked them directly for a consent document stating that I have opted into the services, they reply with Everyone gets basic overdraft service I informed them directly that they cant do that by default and that regulations dictate that they have to have consent before enrolling in such services. 

They have intern, provided me with a simple memo; stating that all of their customers are opted into a basic overdraft service. 


They continue to not provide consent for their overdraft service.
