Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I deposited XXXX tax refund checks XXXX for XXXX XXXX dollars and another for {$930.00} I did this at the bank with a teller and was told it would be delayed and funds would be available on or before the XXXX. A few days later in the mobile app I saw the checks were on hold and would be available the XXXX I called several times to see if the check can be verified before then but no one even bothered to call the paying bank. On the XXXX I received an email saying my account was restricted I called and the reason was because the checks couldnt be verified even though they hadnt even attempted to call the paying bank yet. I was told by a customer service agent that the check doesnt state that its a tax refund so it cant be verified and my funds will be suspended once they clear this upset me and was ridiculous so I asked to speak to someone else and was connected to a supervisor who helped me get the checks verified I was then informed that a request to unrestrict my account was put in and the funds will be available on the XXXX. Today is the XXXX and the checks have cleared however my account is still restricted so I contacted them yet again several times and they said I wont be able to access my account until the XXXX even though everything has been verified I am incurring interest on the state fee to my taxes and Im unable to pay it because the funds are unavailable to me and I also have bills to pay and things to take care of I dont understand how this is legal.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I discovered unauthorized transactions on my XXXX  Dasher card, totaling {$69.00}. I immediately canceled my card to prevent further misuse and contacted XXXX customer service to report the issue and request a refund. I followed their protocol by promptly responding to all emails they sent as well as sending pictures for proof, but I was given multiple, conflicting confirmation numbers ( Calling multiple times for days from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  which made the process confusing and difficult to follow. 

Despite my compliance, XXXX has exceeded the required 10-day period for resolving unauthorized transactions and has still not refunded my money. Additionally, my experience with their customer service was both frustrating and unprofessional. During one call, a representative hung up on me while I was explaining my issue, and I received inconsistent information that left me uncertain about the status of my claim. 

As a XXXX who relies on this income, the delays and poor handling of my case have caused financial hardship. I am seeking assistance to ensure XXXX investigates the unauthorized transactions properly, refunds the money owed to me, and addresses the unprofessional behavior I encountered from their customer service team.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I arrived at XXXX XXXX place in XXXX, Massachusetts for union conference. When I arrived there I was told I had to put a credit card for incidental fees which was around {$400.00}. I was resistant but I gave it to them. At that time I was told I had another charge because of a no-show day before. I told him that can not be because I never said I was going to stay at their hotel on Saturday and had no knowledge. In fact, I stayed at another hotel that day and have proof and that I was not going to pay for that fee and was adamant about that. The person did not charge me for the fee and instead charging for the incidental which I got returned to me. Around a month later I looked at my bank statement and I was charged for that fee. I asked why I was charged to that fee. They told me because it was a no-show feat. I told him I never made a reservation or said I was going to stay at their hotel Saturday which they replied XXXX did who was in charge of booking hotel for our Union Branch that we're going to this national trip. I told them XXXX had no permission to use my card, and I didn't even know she booked the hotel for me that night. it was a back and forth with the hotel and eventually they admit it via email that it was between XXXX and a hotel and my card shouldn't have been involved. I called my bank and they issued me a credit while they were investigating this. A month later XX/XX/XXXX I see I got charged again and that the bank decided to rule in favor of the hotel even though I provided proof somebody else told the company to use my card who had no authorization to use my card and that another person made the bookings that wasn't me. Chase refused to take my evidence into consideration and instead told me I had to go though XXXX and/or the hotel. XXXX told me she never told the hotel to change the reservation. I talked to the hotel and they were issuing me a refund 3 to 5 days, but my account is negative now and chase refused to issue me a credit because according to them the hotel provided " proof '' that I booked the room. The hotel changed the actual reservation I never called to make a reservation to that hotel.
