Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service — International money transfer
Issue: Money was not available when promised — 
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX at Chase Bank in NY state I sent an international wire transfer to a business in XXXX. My banker at Chase used a XXXX code for XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX that I was told was the correct code for the bank that my wire transfer needed to land at. Come to find out, the XXXX code was pulled from a drop down at Chase bank which was a retired XXXX code for the recipients bank. This was the first mistake that has lead to 4 weeks of my international transfer never making it to the intended XXXX account, and NO ONE at Chase Bank being able to track down this wire and let me know where my money is. In the meantime, the business waiting on the international wire is threatening to sue me for non payment, all the while the money left my account XX/XX/XXXX and has not been able to be found by Chase bank since. I have made at least 30 phone calls to Chase Bank, as well as sending emails, talking to supervisors, and reaching out to bankers at my local branch. I have been told every time that they can not figure out where the money is and why it has not landed at the account it was intended for. So I am now out a very large sum of money, it can not be tracked or found, I have spoken to no less than TWENTY different Chase bank employees, supervisors, teams, etc... all to NO avail. Meanwhile I am being threatened with a law suit over the missing funds not arriving. Chase Bank has told me over and over they are " working on it '' and someone will call me with a resolution, and now it has been over 25 days with no answers as to where my money went, where it is being held, and why it did not land at the account promised. Chase Bank as been worthless in this entire process.

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Charged too much interest
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
My issue involves ALL credit card companies. I have discovered that when a person receives a refund to their credit cards for purchases, the interest is not corrected. While reading my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX card statement, I realized the interest charged for a purchase was not reversed when I was issued a refund. I called customer service and questioned the action, or lack thereof, to which the agent agreed and provided a refund for the charged purchase 's interest. I recall this taking place once before with my XXXX XXXX card. Typically, customers are only concerned with the money being refunded by the company the purchase is made from, and do not pay attention to the interest charged by the credit card companies. Not reversing the interest charge for refunds is allowing credit card companies to collect thousands of dollars from unknowing customers. I have not contacted my other credit card companies. Although, I would like to go back to the inception of all of my cards and ensure the interest has been reversed for all refunds I have received. I am requesting a higher investigation into this matter as many credit card companies will charge customers for statements past a certain point, which is also unfair.
