Complaint narrative:
Yesterday XX/XX/XXXX I went to put gas in my truck and said my debit card with chase bank was denied. Went to go on the chase app to see why it couldve been denied and it said my account was restricted. I called numerous times why and no one was able to give me an explanation to why. Tried going into the branch and the branch manager wasnt allowing me to withdrawal any money at all and that I would have to wait till after the 10 days of the account closing to receive a final check. Only thing I can think of was I had my girlfriends tax returned submitted to my chase account because she doesnt currently have a bank. I was able to provide anything or details they needed but told me I would just have to wait till my account was closed to receive funds. I also have XXXX pending deposits for Friday XX/XX/XXXX which means if Im unable to get my funds I dont get pains for anything XXXX weeks.

Complaint narrative:
I received an email from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX wit

h regards to my account with them. They have lowered my credit amount for no good reason. I have always paid them on time and had over {$1100.00} or more dollars open with them on {$3500.00} credit line. 

I guess these bad actors look at credit reports and then determine without a truly good reason what types of actions are taken towards their customers. Thats all well and good when it is deserved. In my case it is not.

Their reasoning for this is that I have high balances on other cards.

Well, hello!!! that is what credit is for. I pay my bills on time every month often make more than a minimum payment and have several cards with underutilized credit amounts. 

By taking this action against me for no good reason it will lower my credit score and make it more expensive for me to get credit going forward.

I am being judged unfairly here and action needs to be taken on this company for doing so.
