Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I have been banking with Chase for a long time, i manage both of my sons and my husbands accounts as well. I had every one move their accounts over to chase many years ago. 
WIth out giving me any reason, as i was travelling through XXXX, chase decieded to close my accounts, they drafted a letter to me on XX/XX/XXXX htat they decided to close my accounts, they sent me that letters one of which i received the day after they closed and one a month after they closed. 
I have never over drafted or missed a credit card payment. 
The fact that they closed the accounts without any proper advance notice and the fact that they did not give me an explanation about why they chose to close my accounts. They closed my credit card accounts, my various checking and savings accounts. 
I have worked hard all my life to have good credit, I live an honorable and ethical life, how has this institution decided that i had conducted an unexpec ted activity? 
I would at least like an explantion of what exactly triggered them to do this to me. 
The fact that they did not give me adequate notice, meant that all of our family, mine and my sons essential payments like utilities, phones etc which were on auto pay had to be adjusted, it was a lot of trouble start a new bank account, have new deposits clear through the new bank and have the new payments set up for essential services like heat and water etc. 
We had late fees and fines that we had to deal with for so many payments that we had on auto pay with Chase. 
I feel that after my loyalty to chase for the past 7 to 8 years, they least they can do is tell me what triggered them to classify me as an unsage customer

Now, below are the motives as to why these violations on my credit report NEED TO BE completely removed from my report!

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX, I mailed a check within a week of the due date, paying the balance off my newly opened Ulta Mastercard. The check was for the full amount. I also enclosed a note requesting the card be closed. 

In XXXX, I received a bill stating the payment was late and I had a {$30.00} late fee because there was around {$4.00} in outstanding interest. My account was still open even though I had requested it closed. I called, spoke to a representative and explained the situation ( I had mailed the check with more than a week 's notice, paying the balance in full and asked the account to be closed ). He told me he would reverse the late fee and talked me into not closing the account. I asked if I had an outstanding balance, because I would pay it then on the phone, and explained I have good credit and didn't want another late fee or credit ding. He reassured me it was fine and my balance was XXXX. He also reassured me that I could call in the future and let them know if a payment was on its way by mail, they would make sure to mark it and no late fee would apply. I asked him to note on my account that I had called that day. Because he was so nice, I let him talk me into leaving my account open. 

In XXXX, I receive a notice that I owed {$4.00}, I was being charged another {$30.00} late fee for the {$4.00} and they were placing the original {$30.00} late fee back on my bill, making my total payment {$70.00}. 

I called on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke with three agents about the situation. I told them I had called in XXXX and been reassured there was no balance due. I was told the original late fee was being reinstated because I had now been late for two payments. I asked for the current balance, and immediately set up an electronic payment through my credit union so I would have documentation it was paid. I also asked that my account be immediately closed and that I have verification of the closure sent to me via email. They said they would mail it. At this point I gave up. 

Beware, if you are in a bind and need to make a payment with the support of a representative, there is a {$9.00} charge for personal assistance. For this interest rate and the fees, that shoul dbe provided for free.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I set up a {$50.00} auto pay for my business credit card with Amex. They auto drafted {$380.00} instead and claim it was an error on their part. When I tried to get them to refund this unapproved withdraw from my checking account, they said it was needed to keep the account open and sent me to multiple representatives without giving back the money they stole. I could care less about the account being open or closed. Amex doesn't get to change payments I've scheduled. 

I'd like my {$380.00} returned. Until then I have removed all bank accounts and auto pays from all XXXX of my Amex cards. I won't pay them XXXX dollar until the unapproved withdraw is returned. What they did caused a {$35.00} dollar late fee for a separate account because they stole money not meant for them with the unapproved withdraw.

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I tried to send {$1000.00} USD using XXXX. The process expected that I be able to reply " YES '' to a text that I received. I was unable to do so, at the time, so I tried again, later, once I had access to my phone. When I did, I was locked out my account. It said I needed to call the bank to get the temporary hold removed. When I called the bank, I went through multiple identity verification steps, including text messages to my account phone and emails to my account email, along with personal information including digits of my SSN. After ALL of my identify verification was provided, I was told that I was suspected of suspicious activity and that my account would need to be " investigated '' before I had access to my funds. Upon calling back, I was told that an investigation may take 30 days. This was the first indication I was given - at all - that I was suspected of suspicious activity and after multiple requests I was told that I had no recourse at all. I simply had to wait for an investigation that may take an entire month. In the mean time, I have been immediately cut off from my bank account and all of my funds. And they were explicit with me that I had no other recourse but to wait for a call from an investigator. After calling back, I was able to escalate to a supervisor, but I was only able to leave a message with them and haven't received any indication from the bank that an investigation has begun, nor that a supervisor will be returning my call.
